Think it’s the last time anybody will level us with the entitled bollocks. All in this together, just what football needed ironically.

Just you wait. 12 months down the line there will be a minor news-story in a minor publication showing that many of these sold some shares over the weekend and buy them back tomorrow - making millions in the process. It's easy to do when you know what's going to happen...

On the other hand if no punishment is dished out then they will just try again 18 months down the line.

Also there is no thought for fans of Bolton, Bury, Sheff Wed or back in the day us with sanctions and points deductions.

These clubs have gambled trying to absorb pretty much all of the power in the world game and ****ing everybody else (Inc Charlton) at the same time. They lost the gamble and it should cost them.

In an ideal world it would hit the owners in the pocket and leave the football side of it untouched. Not sure that can happen.

can’t happen. But they have to be punished. And harshly. The fans of said clubs I think would accept.

Transfer bans. FINANCIAL PENALTIES. With the money going to the Lower league clubs. Literally 100’s of millions to leagues 1 and 2 (bar Sunderland of course).

This would prop up the football pyramid.

I see what you’re saying mate but the Glazers have sold shares bare times and they rub our noses in it in advance every time.

I agree in part but as regard the fans I'm a bit split. They don't deserve any punishment themselves but if nothing gets done then it's possible the majority of the fanbases will make noise for a month or so and then brush it under the carpet for next year when their clubs have worked a transfers distraction game through the summer. If the fans had to endure their club actually be punished for the actions of the owners then the fallout from that would drag on for much, much longer and really focus minds.

Look, we all know there's a good chance nothing will now be done and 99% of fans will have got over it by September.

Not so sure and as mentioned earlier this is the 2nd time in less than a year a carve up was attempted and by the same people.

A mate of mine has just text to say that FSG have put Liverpool up for sale. Not sure if this is true or not?
Also said Edward’s ain’t leaving Utd until the end of the year?

Yeah, Project Big Picture.

If nowt's done now, they'll keep trying, and trying, and trying...

Dock them points, don't let them back into the ECA immediately (make them reapply), huge fines for the owners, transfer embargoes etc. Lots of fans of the top six will probably stomach all that if it means the owners are penalised.

Tough one for me as pretty much all the managers have said that they or the players had no input. It would also
seem harsh on the fans of these clubs if punishments were handed out.

I agree with that to a point, but you can’t meaningfully punish a club for its actions, without unintentionally punishing the players and the fans.

The issue they’ll have, is that there’s no precedent or outlined punishment for this kind of indiscretion.

Tbf I’ve already seen Kopites saying that all involved should be slapped with a 1 year European ban.

Im deadly serious man, all 12 of these clubs left the ECA and so should be banned from re entering until next year, so they all get to miss out on European competition next season.

Which means at the moment, the PL's champions league entrants would be Leicester, West Ham, Everton and Leeds, with Villa and Wolves going into the EL, currently.
Id be down for that.

I'd certain like that!

Well seeing as we've been in the champions league twice I think we should own that place for the next 23 years

If the fans of the 6 clubs are asking for bans, then you can’t really argue with that. Fair play
