Financial Fair Play (FFP)

You will do, when we move to our new ground in Toton.

Not everyone can drink in the Manor. It's quite a small pub.
Go to the Bass House.

Just on FFP, I can only speak for the EFL here as I've not looked at the PL Handbook etc in great depth but there is a mechanism called "Agreed Decision".

In EFL it came with an actual deduction and a portion suspended subject to adherence with a Business Plan which any club who fails gets anyway. Failure to hit th4 Business Plan is a breach in itself and triggers an Automatic deduction in line with the Agreed tariff. How relevant to PL Idk, and it is possible to fail the Business Plan but pass P&S. Reading may provide an example.

I digress, an Agreed Decision is mutually Agreed and not Appealable by either side. However they can't just sign off totally bespoke, in the EFL example anyway it still had to be signed off/Approved by someone Independent to make sure it was acceptable within the Regulatory Framework.



There are two others which I'll try to find the URL too.

Looks f***ing mint to me gutted I never did that This does not do it justice - They use the actual music and sound effects from the first two films and in that clip they do not show the the props used from both films. The Morphs and face huggers jumping out on you is incredible and they look film accurate.
They also had actual original props used from both films that were on display in glass/plastic displays.
The Hicks helmet gave me a semi!!!!

It could be a ‘take it or leave it’ offer,Otis i.e 6 points now and take your chances on appeal or
a reduced deduction and close the case.
You can’t have your cake and eat it (there has to be a middle ground somewhere).
That would therefore mean that as any verdict and subsequent sanction is evidently solely down to this "independent" commission, it also has the power to offer what is effectively a plea bargain on behalf of the PL. If so, it surely suggests clear interference by the PL in an independent trial and judgement in order to try and avoid a drawn-out appeals process going beyond the end of the season. Does it not?

If it's six points or over that we lose, I think that kills us if I'm honest. We might appeal and get it reduced after the season has ended but even then, I think it'll resign everyone to an inevitability of relegation and we won't have got the points then. Luton are already full of beans, if it's six, that's all the motivation they need. Everton will probably get the same that pulls them back into it but they've got a manager like Dyche who would use that.

3-4 points, could go either way. Think of it like being 1-0 down in the 89th minute, the board goes up with 10 minutes on it and you win a corner (if we could take them properly), you know you are in a losing position but you have a chance maybe to pull it back level if you can do something.

No points deducted (which is unlikely), I think there is definitely some relief there but considering how feeble the mentality is from this team when they're in a position of expectation, it just feels like it'll be more of the same.

Strange logic but I think a "could have been worse.." situation works out best for us.

"Luton full of beans"

LOL

Even Manchester City are revered less on here. This is two bald men fighting over a comb. It's shit teams seeing who can be less shit than the others.

Luton had their easiest match for the rest of the season on Saturday. They scraped a point. They'll be worried that they couldn't turn over the one side whose biggest weakness is overcome by their greatest strength.

Forest won't go down cos Luton do anything remotely good, it'll be because they can't nail the points themselves.

Morning sports fans.

Here's to another days membership in the F5 club. I don't know how to fully engage with the rest of the world today so f**k em.

I've bunkered myself in and dropped some guilty pleasures on a new Spotify playlist. First up is George Michael & Aretha Franklin. As I'm typing a thought occurred and I'm hoping the universe is trying to send me a message and deductions news with "I knew you were waiting"

Imagine if it’s lower than expected, and for a second time in a week the forum explodes like we’ve beaten City away, without actually kicking a ball on either occasion!

If the decision is signed and sealed, it's really not on if the EPL, or the club, haven't immediately announced it.

There's huge impacts for other clubs, as well as sponsors, players, other employees etc.

It might be worth keeping TalkSport on in the background—they often get an early heads up of impending breaking news. Simon Jordan generally talks sense.
