    Fair enough I suppose..personally I think Odegard is the best player in the league.

    With it being 115 charges. They must have some evidence of some sorts.

    I appreciate Man City can throw a lot of money at it.

    But it just seems unfair.

    Cheslea aswell.

    Not for me. Think he’s not consistent enough. Not that I’m saying Foden is more consistent though - too much rotation at City

    The Leicester one should be quite straight forward to me. If/when they get promoted to PL again, then they start that season on minus points.

    While they remain in the championship, Masters/PL should have no control over punishments. Simple.

    Not sure city and Chelsea want to keep ffp.. only ones of the top 6 that would are Liverpool and spurs cos they definitely spend within their means.

    Arsenal prob more for it as well only because they make huge money from being in London.

    United - prob did under glazers as allowed them to make more profit - under new management who knows.

    Think you’ll prob find that more clubs in mid table and lower prem want to keep ffp as they can’t compete without it when they’ve been run sensibly to maintain a prem standard and then a club comes from no where with unlimited money cos they won a lottery.

    Because they are all different charges. Thing of it this way.

    3 people caught speeding have had a letter and 3 point on their license within a week - all pleaded guilty, paid their fine and been dealt with.

    But the guy accused of murder and pleaded not guilty is currently out on bail and trial wont be for another year because prosecution need time to get case together, as do the defence. Wouldn’t expect that to be done within the same timeframe of the others.

    Just feels unfair. The little clubs get hammered and the big clubs go about their merry way.

    You suggesting that FFP is right and that it suits the narrative for the big six to maintain the status quo.

    I would agree sir.

    And now Forrest have appealed their points deduction. That’s interesting isn’t it.

    I think the PL have ****ed up here big style.

    Their opinions are useless.
