First City Chelsea Everton and now Spurs. I think they will need to be sanctioned properly to minimize cheating in football. Do you reckon Spurs should stripped off ALL their trophies they won after signing of Defoe or will the PL just deduct them points?
Clubs are getting caught left right and center for cheating but Fergie and United bribing referees somehow business as usual. Who will get caught next? I think more teams will be getting caught at this rate except maybe Arsenal.
I very much doubt Spurs will get too much of a punishment, Everton’s was harsh. £20 million overspent isn’t exactly much for a premier league side. Think they’ve just been made an example of. City’s owners aren’t stupid. There is bound to be loopholes for their charges. They’ve done it before with UEFA and will more likely do it again. The Chelsea one is a strange one because the new ownership are the ones who reported the inaccuracies and it was all before their tenure. So I’d expect chelsea will get a punishment but it’ll more likely be a hefty fine (they’ve already paid an £8m fine to UEFA for issues they discovered). The league doesn’t benefit from these teams being relegated or expelled especially on a European level.
