It's in the Premier League rules that all teams have to put somebody forward for post match written press interviews. Manchester Utd, under Sir Alex Ferguson, never did this.

He got fined for that, just as clubs will be fined or docked points or whatever.

Clubs who rebel against the rules will want to put high prices to get more money in, which will be totally pointless because they'll just be fined.

Say, as an easy to understand example, you want to put prices up to make 1m more than is "legal" then the Prem will fine you 1.2m. Which would make it a waste of time and you'd be out of pocket.

All it needed at the start was someone to say with authority / evidence that they'd be fined and we couldve prevented the previous 20 posts.

<laugh> It's chalk and cheese. How are you not understanding this?

How is it? Posters referenced the PL rule book that you have to abide by as a club, which I know about from my previous media work, so how is one rule different to another? It's either a PL rule or it isnt.

You yourself said 'if you want to be a Premier League club you abide by Premier League rules'. Well clearly that's not always the case.

No it didn't. Because anyone with a brain cell could easily see that for themselves.

What are you on about? How can you possibly relate the two?
 
I'm really not. If you get fined for breaking the PL rules for clubs then that's all that needed saying. Its either a rule or it isnt.

There's not the same penalty for every offence, Fergie falling out with the BBC obviously doesn't incur the same penalty as refusing to allow any away fans into a game (as a more extreme example) and as nobody on here works for the Premier League, nobody knows what the penalty would actually be.

And we won't find out, because everyone will charge away fans £30 from now on and all of this is utterly pointless bollocks.

I do like the way this thread went from "if you want to be a Premier League club and get the money you have to follow the rules' to 'if you dont follow them you'll get fined'.

I'm not talking about him falling out with the BBC. I'm talking about him never doing written media post match press conferences. I clearly stated written.

And yet you keep posting.

What will the fine be if City get promoted and charge away fans £30.05 for tickets next season?
