The Relegationometer™ (2023/24)


Recommended Posts

Can see Nottingham Forest's horrific goal difference being a factor on the final day.

 

Personally think it'll be Leeds/Leicester that go though.

After that c**t pushed Howe, I am really hoping Leeds f**k off!

Aye I still think Leeds will go, despite them having a bit of fight yesterday. If Bamford wasn’t shite they’d have been 2 up against us yesterday and they’d have beaten Leicester. 

 

I think Forest could go too but it would mean Leicester need a point from either Liverpool or SJP, as well as obviously beating West Ham on the last day.


Forest have Palace away last day, but they’ve been shocking on the road.

that Everton loss means Bournemouth are safe in the PL. Fair play to Gary O'Neil


I must admit I thought appointing him sealed their relegation but he’s done a class job. 

 

@WillDanceForChocolate Congratulations, will be interesting to see what your new owner intends to do this summer.

Did you see that clip a week or so when they were doing an arm-wrestle and he snapped his arm live on stream? [emoji38]

Burnley might have a solid case for compensation if the punishment for Everton is a points deduction of 4 or more points (the amount Everton finished above them last season)

 

That would be compensation for the £65m payment triggered as a direct response to being relegated.

 

Similarly whoever finishes 3rd bottom this year may have a case due to the hearing being held post season end - unless the regulations are clear on when punishments take force (i.e. if they say the season after the accounts are published then there would be no case). This scenario may need the club to sue the Premier League rather than Everton however.

 

There is no need for these delays, all clubs accounts are audited and the Premier League could lay a mandate that along with the published accounts an audited set of FFP adjusted figures need to be provided, and that all accounts need to be with the Premier league by the 31st December. They could then take 2-3 months to review them all with any required sanctions in place by the end of March

West Ham had to pay Sheffield United compensation, although it was much less.

 

Aye for 1 team over a decade ago. It was still a decent amount, £20m+ wasn't it? If so that's £60m in today's football money, times by 4 or 5 clubs. The PL may have no option but to dock them pts this season to avoid this.

The PL are gutless when it comes penalising clubs, like. At least in Italy they're not afraid to hand points deductions (even if they are later reduced)

I imagine it's incredibly damaging to the brand, which speaks for itself, certainly in comparison to the Serie A brand. The recent Juventus stuff, for instance, makes the league look like a complete joke. Better to brush under the carpet and let the unreal football/footballers mask everything. (More on about City here, like).

Surprised that cunt Levy isn't in on this somehow, over the Alli transfer. 

 

Still though, inject it, it'd be fucking hilarious if they went down and got slapped with some kinda sanction :lol:

Not clicking that link to that tory shite but I'm assuming this relates their bullshit, obscene, ridiculously large 'covid' losses that were used to hide their reckless spending on utter wank?

Part of it - I think they announced a 3 year loss of £330m when only £105m is permitted - Covid made up £95m of the £330m losses - I'm sure we accounted for £18m or something - cheating bastards!

Didn't Hartlepool get deducted points for playing a player that had registered an hour too late or something about 10years back?

Nowt will happen with Everton most likely. The suspense is no good because nobody knows where they stand or what the punishments are or if they're even a deterrent.

I thought the premier league relaxed the rules because of COVID and that's the only thing that saved them from FFP losses

That was last year, IIRC the PL allowed the 2 years to be rolled into 1
