    Screw point reductions or fines, spurs need some actual punishment so they don’t do it again. I say make them rehire Conte on a long term contract, that will truly make them regret breaking the rules

    -1 point to Spurs for reasons

    -50 points to Pompey cause easier to punish

    -5 to Everton cause Defoe has a couple Es in his name

    So what I understood is They can be hit with:

    a transfer ban

    points deduction or

    relegation to a lower division

    I said when all the chelsea threads were popping up that everyone had skeletons and no one wanted to listen.

    Of course it was old harry. Shame that he tained our FA Cup win with this transfer and its part of the reason he’s only known as a colossal cunt in Pompey.

    This was also part of it and I genuinely hate that man with all my heart. The fact he tells this story as some funny little quip, but also has to lie because all of that for 2 mil doesnt sound as good as 9 mil.

      Because football didn’t want to, it was a self governed wild west in a way. Now the government has threatened to introduce an independent regulator so English football is trying to look like its cleaning up its act and doesn’t need regulating (it does).

    Not a Spurs fan in the least but at some point there needs to be some sort of limitation on retrospective punishments for historical offences otherwise where does it end? Leeds getting deductions cos Don Revie tried to fix matches? Forest getting deductions cos Cloughie took bungs? Arsenal getting deductions cos George Graham took bungs? It feels like a slippery slope

    I knew it. Shady shady sods. They took advantage of anything and everything suring that period. I’d love to see someone go to the same level of detail for the begovic and kaboul deals. Somehow we ended up owing spurs as we sold begovic to stoke? Wtf is that?

    And this was around the era that Spurs fans were calling into national radio stations demanding their players walk off the pitch whenever refs gave a decision against their team. How ironic that it turns out it was them who were actually getting the favourable treatment.
