Leicester points deduction

[eteb]

My thoughts too. A fairly meaningless penalty under their circumstances.

I wouldn't bank on it - look at their feb fixtures

Leicester proving cheating does prosper.

Not the first time Leicester have played fast and loose with the financial rules if memory serves.

And got off pretty lightly with it.

Should have been relegated to league 2, that might stop it.

That is about the minimum number that could have been deducted, so Leicester calling it harsh and saying that they might appeal is rather cheeky.
I'm now hoping that both West Brom and Blackburn win this Saturday (won't happen of course).

I'm not. I want them all stuck on 32 so that we can beat SW and be 10 points clear of them thanks. Leicester aren't going down.

Neither are we.

 

[monmouth]

Neither are we.

Call me back when that's mathematical.

3 Wins and few draws. We'll do it

 

[BendJack]

Read yesterday it maybe another year before this happens. Absolute piss take

Even longer when you account for the tricks they'll pull afterwards, such as appeals, technicalities, loopholes and rugpulls. They truly are appalling!

Oh come on, we’re better than a relegation scrap.

Guess Festers crisp munching knuckle draggers will be sobbing in their Walkers.
Good
Obnoxious b'stards. Maybe the most Obnoxious in any division.
Pity it wasn't the 12 points deduction that the Prem wanted to put on them.

I know, but I don’t want any pressure. We have some tough games coming up. 7 point gaps can evaporate and then games can get tense. It’s not as if we are free scoring or free of defensive blunders. I’d rather see WBA and Blackburn keep losing.

 

[malc]

There's no pressure win the next 2 games
we then have 2 home games we could be Challenging the top 10 .
We are on a good scoring run haven't failed to score in the last 7 games .

I don't see my point as controversial. I don't think we'll be relegated at all, but strange things can happen if things get tight. I'm expecting a huge 10 point gap, same games played, from a poor team (Blackburn or WBA) in third bottom come Sunday afternoon, and that more or less settles the issue. That's why I can't get on board with the notion that we should want those teams on 32 points to win, just to try and spite Leicester, who are not really a 32 point team and will soon climb away.
