TheGoldenGod Posted 21 May 2025 Posted 21 May 2025 Video just gone up on Talksport about this Europa League final but right at the end he talks about us! In short he says its advantageous to accept the full 12 points NOW for this season although he's not sure it'll be able to be wrapped up in time. He also says we WON'T get 12 points next season, maximum 8 (in his opinion).

Maguire's podcast is released tomorrow, will check that out to see if he's still saying punishment for 23/24 has to apply this season.

Worth corroborating with what Maguire says because it could well be different. However, take anything said with a pinch because both have been in unequivocal agreement before and still been wrong🤣 1

I (and a few AI apps) can’t find any publicly available information that we’ve ever voted in favour of rules like these. Based on previous rule changes which have been publically discussed as in LCFC voting in favour of the teams in Europe getting bigger share of international income I can't believe this was implemented without agreement of the majority of clubs including those 'like us'.

I follow him on X and he’s very informative.
Kp1984 Posted 21 May 2025 Posted 21 May 2025 Now I’m reading we might be able to pay 6m fine and get the points this season 2

Grebfromgrebland Posted 21 May 2025 Posted 21 May 2025 This will drag on until just after the end of the transfer window so that we can't appoint a manager or players because of the uncertainty.

Pliskin Posted 21 May 2025 Posted 21 May 2025 The timing of this is interesting….. why now? Why the week of the final game of the season? The cynic in me suggests that they’ve done this at this stage to avoid the points being deducted this season…….

Presumably it wasn’t the PL that decided the timing, but the arbitration panel that was deciding on the PL’s appeal. 1
FrankieADZ Posted 21 May 2025 Posted 21 May 2025 sorry if its been posted but my word thats some losses wonder if theyll ever get the book thrown at them 1

How can they have messed up so badly and still not be in any trouble? How is that "sustainable"? Edited 21 May 2025 by Iwebema 3

Let´s say LCFC makes a profit of 10 M excluding sponsorship, but add on 10 M in KP sponsorship to make a profit of 20 M, which finally goes back to KP. So that 10 M is just going round and round, to and from KP. To my mind it might as well be 50 pence or 50 M My understanding is that LCFC is not a subsidiary of King Power, the club is wholly owned by Top and his family who also separately own KP.
Scotch Posted 21 May 2025 Posted 21 May 2025 I can see it now.... We get the deduction this season, go bottom, celebrate it as a win. Then Man City are deducted 100 points, go bottom and Ipswich stay up.

Whether you like the PSR rules or not.
