bladebloke   10 #27 Posted May 5, 2008 what about when you went down v chelsea on the last day cant think of that wimbledon keepers name ?  what goes round comes round look at leicester now after what colin said they cheated there way to the top flight  yep another good point wimbledon went 2-0 up then hans segars has a mare one going through his hands losing 3-2. he was later aquited with bruce grobbelar of match fixing. where this smoke etc etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Longcol   610 #28 Posted May 5, 2008 also youre "facts" are wrong. we went down because we scored 1 goal less or conceded 1 goal too many depends how you look at it.  we went down on goal differance not points.  But the team you were a goal behind on goal difference was Wigan. It was a failure to get a point in the last game that sent you down, not Tevez, West Ham, Man U etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Bull Dog   10 #30 Posted May 5, 2008 There was always plenty of smelly fish hanging around the Tevez and Mascherano Deals Personally i think West Ham Agreed to be a stepping stone to get the players moves to big clubs and make the players Owner a few more quid and help save them from relegation,which it did Is the Premiership Bent? Probably Where there is money there is a scam,and there is a hell of a lot of money in the Premiership But no way do i think a team would throw a result even if managers were good mates And even though im an Owl and aint particulary keen on Blades YES they were hard done by.....VERY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Bladesman   10 #31 Posted May 5, 2008 In answer to your question BB.  Yes the premier league/FA/FIFA are all bent.  Just been reading how Spurs got there 12 points back when they had been making illegal payments to players back in 94. I mean that was 14 years ago and nothing has changed since really. It will continue to be the same and to be honest despite the investigations that are supposidly ongoing I doubt anything will come of them.

A £500k fine and a 12 point deduction was changed to a £1.5m fine, and no points deducted. Tottenham would have been relegated by the original decision.  Around the same time, Swindon were demoted TWO divisions for irregularities, reduced to one on appeal.
