An interview with SSN ....
Something along the lines of, 'Looking likely Southampton were going down and he intended to take some of Saints players he knew well into the Leicester City set up for next season'
That seems an completely unlike Pearson to say that!!
it looked genuine enough
Agreed,
Someone posted me the quote, and it looked genuine enough, from someone I consider to be genuine.
That seems a completely unlike Pearson thing to say that!!
Matt LeTiss, Jane Austen, King Canute,General Gordon, Benny Hill, Captain Smith..........your boys took one hell of a beating
Don't forget Ali Dia, George Weah's 'cousin' :icon_bigg
Didn't West Ham Uniteds parent company go into admin? If so then they must also be docked points?
Saints will start life in div 1 with -10 points .........................oh dear .................
Points deduction is not a fair way to punish a team. It punishes fans far more than the directors who will still sit in padded seats and still be pampered from start to finish.
I'm not sure whether a points deduction is designed to punish anybody at all. It's simply a token to put a club in the position that they might have been in had they not bought players and paid wages that they can't afford. The fans have had more than they deserve for a while - this evens things up a little.
that does not explain why Luton are where they are.
Are you sure?
points last season which put them down and then 30 points this season.
They should have just relegated them there and then if they wanted rid of them.
Wanted them to go down on the last day of the season with Le Tissier watching it/summarising whilst on Sky Sports Soccer Special
