The corrupt EFL.

[Rev72]

Bottle giving Sheffield Wednesday the -15pts deduction they promised.

Now I don't want to see any club go under , suffer yes but go under no.

But surely this makes a mockery of the system they have in place , after all the corrupt gits couldn't hand us the -15 points deduction quick enough and I don't doubt Ken Bates was as bent as billy but the wendies owner was on another level.

We , and others have had to pay the price for sh1t owners so why the change of heart?


Stinks if you ask me.

[hopelesslyoptimistic]

They do tend to create a fair bit of head scratching

Rev, I despise both the fa & fl. No hiding the fact that they have no time for LUFC and will do anything to bring misery to our club.
We had the -10 given when we had no chance and of course relegated…then the -15. Not crying over spilt milk what happened, happened. Level playing field my azz.

Yes

Not as corrupt as villa throwing the game against spurs tonight

Embarrassing from a Villa point of view.
Majority of their own fans absolutely disgusted by it.
I think one Villa fan on twitter really hit the nail on the head , basically reminded everyone that Spurs were one of the entitled greedy 6 who were happy to go off to a European super league , sh1tting on all those clubs in the process and they had a chance to grab a bit of revenge for the other 14 clubs and potentially push them closer to the Championship , and they bottled it by playing an inferior side because they are pinning it all on next Thursday's semi final with Forest.

Not quite match fixing but boy its close.

WTF has any of that got to do with EFL corruption?

In the remote possibility it might, so what?

Let's imagine a fantasy scenario where Leeds are a "successful" PL side but haven't yet accomplished a regular top 6 place at seasons end, but......

We have a European game where success would guarantee European football next season, but.....

Beforehand, we also have the last game of the season where no significant change in league position or participation in other competitions would be affected.

What side would you field? (And if it differs substantially from the kind of side Emery fielded, you'd get the sack soon after).

Hope this helps.

And to illustrate my point, you remember in 1970, Leeds United were fined a British record of $12,000 (at the time) by the English League for fielding weakened teams, including an all-reserve line-up against Derby County, while competing in both the FA Cup and European Cup. What's good for the goose...etc etc.

[spaldy]

so you think that match fixing is not something that a governing body should not be involved in punishing? Of course, if you are on the take then villa did nothing wrong.

That was in the same category as the 1919 black sox scandal

Forest 2 up at Chelsea, they didn’t throw the towel in, anyone else getting twitchy yet again.

[Orgoner]

I guess any sensible betting money would be switching to West Ham as they're likely to get a battering by Arsenal before we play Spurs, who looked decent, despite being helped by the lacklustre performance put in by Villa yesterday.

We're certainly not fully out of the woods, but I'd much rather be in our position than the teams currently below us.

[Orgoner]

Ticket still needs sorting (fingers crossed for the ballot via my ST), but I'll definitely be at the West Ham game (one way or another).

I don't dislike West Ham, but I fear they will need to win AND need other results to go their way to stay up.
