This is the important bit...

4s of 2026, wealth distribution among retirees is heavily skewed by property and private pension values.
The value of my house is irrelevant. Will benefit my kids when I snuff it. In the meantime I live in it and have to maintain it and it gives me zero spending power.
 
If Southampton are expelled, Middlesbrough are reinstated and we play Boro in the middle of next week, that is the very worst outcome for Hull City and Hull City fans. That’s all I’m bothered about now. Justice can wait.
And if Southampton are expelled (as they must be) and we are promoted, that is the very best outcome for Hull City. That's all I'm bothered about, along with justice now. :emoticon-0105-wink:
 
If we’re thrown out , which I expect , you should get straight through to the final .

You can’t tell me that by doing what we did gave us such an advantage ( if any ) , that it enabled us to beat Boro over two legs , I don’t believe that for one second .
I'm happy to wait for the decision to come, provided the final is played a week today. What do you think Southampton's penalty should be? :emoticon-0138-think

A lot of pensioners don’t have private pensions. The value of a house is meaningless as regards spending power. A young adult on minimum wage living at home has more disposable income than someone with only a basic state pension no matter what their house is worth. You think all pensioners living in Hull are rolling in it?
Private Pension...What's that? :emoticon-0104-surpr

What I think it SHOULD be is a massive fine and a points deduction imposed by the PL at the EFL’s request IF we beat you in the final ( by no means a given ) .

Or a fine and points deduction imposed for this season if we don’t beat you (the offence took place this season and we are still in this season . It will,impact us slightly as our finishing position will be lower hence less revenue ) .

What I think WILL happen is we will get booted out of the competition .

One reason I think that is because the EFL introduced the rule post Leeds in 2019 , they never actually announced any relevant sanctions .

So this is an ideal opportunity for the independent panel to do what they want .

No but the pensioners I know which include my mam and dad who have a very small private pension say they are comfortable.
All lived on council estate also

I think (now and again) we'll be playing you a week today. :emoticon-0138-think

Ermm … you may have been hidden under a rock on Mars for last week (I wouldn’t blame you, I’d be embarrassed to be identified as a supporter of your cheating club who’ve caused all this), but I would just like to gently point out we already ARE in the final. It’s just we’re not likely to be kicked out like you should be.
 
One hour I think so too , next hour we will be booted out .

I do understand the stick we’re getting , but I don’t like it .

Hey Ho that’s social Media for you ‍♂️
Fans cop the flak, and pay the ultimate penalty. Anyone at Southampton involved in this should be banned from football for life. :emoticon-0138-think
