Title: crystal palace points deduction Post by: gatso on June 02, 2009, 02:32:32 AM well more point than points
the football league have decided to punish palace by deducting a point from them, errr, last season. comedy punishment, why even bother? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/c/crystal_palace/8077900.stm Title: Re: crystal palace points deduction Post by: matt674 on June 02, 2009, 06:54:25 AM Football league chief exec had a 4 timer - first 3 legs came in during season, 4th was Palace to score 56 points or less. Its took him this long to figure out how to make it look official! :D

Apparantley it was something to do with Arsenal's loan agreement with Sporting Lisbon for Rui Fonte. The only thing i cant believe is the time it took - what if Palace had made the play/offs by 1 point - would all the play-off fixtures now have to be replayed?? |
