    I know giving Hughton another job in football is reprehensible, but this does seem a tad severe.

    It seems strange that the FA state Brighton have broken no rules yet fines them £90,000!

    Shame the Agents didn't get hit with the fine. I hate 'agents' of any walk of life - Parasites the lot of them.

    Oh I see, yep. Still £7500 is a lot to most individuals...

    Another case for me relating to the disparity in the game. Would the FA have fined other clubs with the same speed? I very much doubt it. The Fair Play system for example is an absolute joke where some teams have blatantly exceeded the rules and have not (nor I suspect will not) be penalised a penny because it would impact on the bigger teams particularly and they would have the financial clout to take the FA to court. Little old Brighton, yeah, let's pick on them and give them a kicking and if Hartlepool or someone of that ilk breaches anything as severe as the offside rule, God help them.
