Ah check out Zippity! The oracle!

It was indeed the Palace robbery.

On that precise glaring mistake the PGMOL admitted openly they were wrong and that cost NUFC 2 points.

Those 2 points would put us equal with Tottenham with 2 games in hand and we would be 4th right now.

At the end of the season we could miss out on CL football by 2 points.

Champions League group stage will all receive a starting fee of €15.64m (£13.48m)
Group stage performance bonuses will also be paid for each match - €2.8m (£2.4m) for a win and €930,000 (£802,000) for a draw.

Say we draw all 6 games as median example. £13.48m + (6x £802,000) = 13,480,000 + 4,812,000 = £18,292,000

Due to the failure of the PGMOL to do their job NUFC will lose out on a minimum of £18,292,000.

That is not including any sponsorship money or even the ability to attract a top tier sponsor due to being in the UCL & also damage the clubs ability to attract the top tier of players. These two variables are intangible as there is real way of knowing what we could have lost or missed out on as the conversations will not have taken place due to us being cheated out of qualification due to the professional negligence of the PGMOL.

I will be fuming if it comes down to such a small margin and we do miss out by 2 points or less!
