It wouldn't help but also wouldn't do any harm. In other words pointless either way.

Le Tissier in the SSN report talks of a "level playing field". Surely he means by that starting on 0 points like everyone else.

Scottish, so if Rangers and Celtic go to the Premiership in a few years we can be the big team

Other clubs could only appeal if in the same position. None of the other clubs that have had points deductions were in the same position.

The hit rate for this site must be huge. Lots of potential for profit to be made

And come up with a way to save face.

Its not being exploitative to ask someone to follow their own rules to the letter.

Because that would be changing the FL rules. What we want is the FL to properly apply the current rules.

Just telling the FL we intend to do so may be enough for them to back down. I'm sure the FL know we'd be likely to get a ruling in our favour from the Court of Arbitration. Blackmail works both ways

Possibly http://www.tas-cas.org

Are you playing with the latest patch?

1) Leon at the time he made those comments was not connected to Saints. 2) Factually those comments are incorrect and thus irrelevant. For those two reasons the FL can't do anything with them

Either Football League Operations Centre Edward VII Quay Navigation Way Preston PR2 2YF or Football League Commercial Office The Football League 30 Gloucester Place London W1U 8FL I reckon

The timing matters alot! You can't be trying to find a loophole in something that won't exist for 8 years in the future. Leon was just wrong and no truth in what he said so it makes no difference.

Only if their cases were the same. Which none of the previous ones have been.

It's not an odd setup. That is how Plc's are created. It is the norm! Anyway the Plc was setup about 8 years before the points deduction rules were created.

Would be quite egotistical if I were the real Matt to use the username "Matthew Le God"

Tony is posting them in the huge many page takeover threads. As they may get lost in them for many people I think its better that they have their own thread.

Yes, so I don't understand why he doesn't start his own threads

Cheers Tony again for keeping us informed I'd like to know the consortium's position on the -10 points

Rival bidders

If the FL were so sure of that position why don't they just stand by it? An emergency meeting to me suggests they will on Monday be trying to come up with a statement that saves face as best possible as they know we have a very strong case.

Football League Board is made up of the following: - Anthony Kleanthous Lord Mawhinney Ian Ritchie David Sheepshanks Neil Doncaster is the former Chief Executive of Norwich City Football Club. Must still have them at heart Peter Powell is a Director of Colchester United Lorraine Rogers is a Director of Tranmere Rovers. Should they be allowed to decide our future when their clubs would like us starting 10 points below them?

Our case is very different to Luton's so that really doesn't come into it.

It could turn it into a 6 year plan if we don't get promotion due to -10 points in 09/10 season. So could well be a big deal.
