Guilty on two charges but no points deducted. What the fcuk? After the benchmark of the Tevez affair, the rules were clarified and QPR have breached them. This vindicates the decision not to deduct us points and makes a nonsense of the ruling that we had to compensate Shafting United, although that idiot Duxbury reached an out of court settlement of course!
I have nothing against QPR, but if they are guilty, then they can have no mitigation. The rule hadn't been tested when we signed Tevez; it was crystal clear when QPR brought in their Argie.
Something is very wrong here and you can bet your life the lawyers will be preparing a case.
Time to get our money back
ReplyDeleteEven though the rules was made stronger after the whole Tevez affair. From a West Ham point of view, I am glad they did not get a point reduction. We didn't so there is no reason for us to be annoyed about it.
ReplyDeleteI do think that Norwich will have a leg to stand on though and I am pretty sure they are preparing their lawsuit right now.
no doubt they will be sued by atleast swansea and leeds, as leeds missed out on the playoff because of it and swanseas missed out on automatic promotion, so if reading, cardiff or notts forrest go up instead of swansea it will be interesting.
ReplyDeletei don't think they should of deducted points, a hefty fine, the vultures with their lawsuites and years of uncertainty is punishment enough as we know all to well
Firstly they should have stuck with Zola, remember him? He actually got Cole scoring goals !!! Also he bought in Diamanti, voted second favourite by fans, behind Scotty, who, along with ILAN scored the goals that kept Hammers up. So, G & S get rid of Zola, Diamanti and Ilan, - and bought in the dog-faced undertaker, and now blame players for the chaos and cockups. Upson, Boa Morte and Cole should have been sold when money could have been got for them, - now everyone knows they're sh1t. Of course they could still win points and stay up, but who would put money on it?
