Oh dear oh dear.
If it's proved what will happen? We know what should but I Bet the FA will talk tough but in the end do nothing.

Do you think they will fail the F.A's rigorous fit and proper owner test?

Man City's Thai owner was a corrupt shithouse, they were punished by being taken owner by richer people and ruling the world. I'd be surprised if The Premier League's Leicester City were allowed to suffer to be honest.

Isn't it time we got over this petty jealousy, they're leagues away from us (literally!)

Who cares where their money come from, I'd have taken all the dodgy dictators in the world if they led us to the premier league title and a season in the champions league
It's not petty jealousy because they're a local team it's because they've proved time and again to act like scumbags. It's like disliking Leeds

Just shows AGAIN that their title win wasn't a fairy tale. They've been cheating for years, cheated to build their stadium, cheated administration, broke financial fair play to get promoted and now it turns out their funds are coming from corruption.
With the few details available there's a hell of a lot of parallels with Portsmouth.

Horrible club.
Thing is didn't we consider the same thing, but too many of our directors were going to lose money? the rules in the FL were crap! They took advantage of it.

Financial fair play came in after they got promoted.

They didn't cheat administration and they didn't cheat the stadium building process. Did FFP even exist then?

So none of the rules that are in place now with points deduction etc, was as a consequence of their actions?

That doesn't answer the question and if the likes of Mcginnity and Elliot weren't puppets dancing whenever Robinson pulled the strings there'd be no Sisu. Which is why whenever I see Elliot mentioned regarding any future I don't want it - as I don't want the past repeated.

Take a deep breath and relax.

Cheated to build their stadium? Would you have been happy if SISU got the arena cheaply and paired it with our club?

Cheated admin? What did they do?

Broke financial fair play? What did they do wrong?

Funds coming from corruption? Seem to be guilty of nothing so far.

Corruption in Thailand. Who'd a thought it?
Exactly. Wouldn't surprise me if this is all because of not making a payment to someone. It looks like they have paid less tax than they should have but have paid much more than the amount of tax they should have paid.

didnt cheat to build there stadium ? just didnt pay the builders, so its ok they'er only builders.

The club went into receivership and so no they did not cheat - they acted completely within the law.

Was that their present owners? Are we on about them or the club?

Our club hasn't paid all the previous debts. Yes they got away with much more. One of the reasons why football debts have to now be paid. Not a bad thing.

So we be called cheats for not paying our debts or is it OK for us and not others?

If you stay within the rules would you say it is cheating?

If the rules changed after the event did you go from not cheating to cheating after the event?

I am totally against what they did. They didn't pay lots of local businesses as well as the more well known. But you can't be guilty of something where the law/rules change after the event.

You always seem willing to put the boot in on former directors and owners, (I'm not saying that they -
Don't deserve it) but you're always hesitant to do the same with our present incumbents.
That's what I don't understand, there's no denying we've had a succession of incompetent numptys
Running the club, but only one has dragged the club from its home, and only one has presided over
What has to be the worst chapter in our history.
