Happy April 1st. 

 

Leicester to be Handed with Five Points Deduction – Boost for Spurs & Arsenal
Posted on April 1, 2016 by Soccerisma

Riyad-Mahrez-Leicester-City-135x135.jpgTottenham Hotspur and Arsenal will be over the moon with the news that Leicester City will have five points deducted in the Premier League.

The title race will then be blown wide open as Spurs will be level on points with the league leaders and Arsenal will be six points behind the Foxes with a game in hand.

The five point deduction is being handed to Leicester taking into consideration theFinancial Fair Play Rulings.

This issue has been ongoing for over a year now. Last year, Leicester City reported excessive losses way beyond the limit allowed by FFP (Leicester Mercury).

As per the provided Leicester Mercury link, in such a scenario, the Foxes could have got a transfer ban or a multi million pound fine but after discussions, no action was taken as the club ensured compliance of the rules within a year.

However, failure to comply in the given time-frame means that they will now suffer even a bigger punishment in the form of five point deduction in PL and a fine of £5million because such insanity can only make sense on April Fools’ Day.

Eh, not bad but my favourite April fools will always be when newcastle announced shearer would be manager for the remainder of the season.

Mine is the one where all remaining Premier League teams would collect some of their points amassed this season and donate them to Aston Villa.

My fIrst thought was who fooked up with the paperwork. Whoever it is, waterboard them, gut them then hang them from a tree.

And to make matters worse, there are now reports that Claudio Ranieri has resigned and that the club has announced that Ian Holloway will return to Leicester to take charge until the end of the season.

It would have been alright if it hadn't started happy april 1st, kinda like telling the punchline first.

      Hinckley times have a headline claiming the new crescent needs re-building because it's too curved. What would be funny is if someone e-mailed them a letter with official EU header thanking them for bringing their observations to light and saying they are sending inspectors to investigate their claims.

My favourite April's Fools joke is still when CNN published in 2003 that Tupac was alive and well. Or it was created to by people to make it look like it was from CNN.

Holograms have feelings, too.
