Petty and pathetic

[StanSP]

Meh. Won't get anywhere. 

[UniFox21]

We finished on 97 points, Leeds finished on 90 in third.

With the 6 point deduction we'd have still finished second on 91. This is a non story 

 

We failed PSR due to relegation forest and Everton breaching PSR

yeah they won BOTH games against us that season and still finished 7 points behind us, like come on just grow a pair, 

if it was 2/3 points and you lost both to us then sure, but imo they are making idiots out of themselves

 

also if thats all the case....we should start legal stuff against Everton, cheated the season we went down, got the points off the season after(the second deduction they got, which was 2 points, and if they had been taken off the 22/23 season, we'd have stayed up on GD)

second one is the table from 22/23

Did we make them get thumped by QPR and play like pansies against Southampton. 

[SK3Blue]

Another reason to hate Leeds. 

[Mark_w]

Have they been laughed out of court yet?

[coolhandfox]

Just a distraction we don't need.

[Ted Maul]

Go and get Nick De Marco

It’s not just about the points deduction, it’s about the fact the club didn’t adhere to the rules and breached spending rules and gained an unfair advantage 

[Foxmeister]

The 50/1 for us to go down looks very tempting now.

That’s the issue. Might need to try and settle this. 

[boosmanana]

They have one of the best sports lawyers as their Executive Vice Chairman, so I doubt they'd be pushing unless they thought they could win. Hopefully Nick De Marco will be willing to represent us again and get it resolved in our favour. It's also unlikely to be looked into until next summer regardless 

[dannythefox]

They’ll win this everyone hates us.

[Cropwellfox]

Heard next summer. God knows what position the finances will be in then especially if we stay in league one. Fine even half of what happened to Everton could kill us off 

[em9999]

Leeds will win this court case cuz sadly this is the way football is going 

 

 

[Tommy Fresh]

If we'd of had the deduction in any season that Leeds were relevant wouldn't we of in theory had a smaller deduction anyway, because it would of meant we'd played ball with being punished.

Another year of this? Great.
