Thanks, very informative. If it is a points deduction, and we get promoted can that be transferred to the Premier League?
Unclear. Leicester successfully fighting the charges against them last season led to an agreement between the leagues that it could happen in cases of PSR breaches, but as to whether that's purely limited to that or not who knows.
 
As with lots of regulations in the game the big problem is that they've decided to not define a punishment at the point of implementing the rule. This means that anything is possible (in theory at least, not in reality) and leads to rampant speculation and clubs making demands.
That happens all over the place - not just football - but you'd think someone would be sensible enough to say - ok so "if" a club does break this rule what happens to them?

Far too sensible and won't generate as much controversy.

Joking with that latter bit but probably not too far from the truth.

Reading the Boro forum and they all seem to think there will be a fine and a “sporting punishment”. Which I’m interpreting as a points deduction. Can’t be this season as even if it’s a -2 or something then it would’ve meant we played the first leg at St Mary’s, so next season or maybe when we come back to the Champ in 2027. Or possibly a transfer ban for the summer.

They also think they will sue if we get promoted for loss of income. Could all be rumbling on for a while.
 
Why is everyone assuming that saints are guilty? No one knows the truth! It's a game! Just because Borough said it happened doesn't mean It's true, It's gamesmanship either way, not guilty of anything until proved. Saying that someone looked like someone on the internet resembled someone who looked like someone who works for Saints is a joke, I am the double of Tonda if you squint at my profile picture.

Borough fans are desperate!

Well Saints have basically admitted it with the statement and have said it was a junior intern acting alone. So basically throwing some young kid under the bus and probably ****ing up any chance he has of a career in football

Tonda looked like he was about to malfunction at one point; I even saw a pretty pronounced blink.
 
So if Gary is Billy, who is Spartacus?
I don’t know if you are referring to when I said in an earlier post that I was Spartacus or something else but in the film there’s a famous bit when the Romans want to crucify him and they want him to own up. In the film Spartacus says that he is and then the slaves one by one say that they are Spartacus instead. Any way doesn’t go well as the Romans just crucify all of them on Appillan way

What i dont get is their first claim that a Saints staff was caught in the bushes, ran off to change, and deleted his phone recording. Then they where using sophisticated recording equipment, by listening to Boros head coach. But now the latest is that they stood on a public hill overlooking the training ground.
Something just doesnt add up.

Could we get Romans to sort out the Man City case?
