Happy St Totteringham’s Day!

Here's hoping the tiny tits crash out of the PL and languish in the Championship for a few seasons. I'd miss the easy points and celebrating St Totteringham's Day. But the memes... the memes would be sublime!

Yeah I’m torn on this, to be honest.

The memes certainly would be sublime, but the loss of the derby hurts.

My ideal is that they end up in a relegation spot, and are saved by City getting relegated on charges

all of the shame, none of the missed out banter

Hahahahaha

It’s actually pretty mad watching all this sudden attention on C115y. From what I can tell it all grew from someone (admittedly it seems someone in the know somewhat) commenting that the three judges should meet soon and what the potential punishment could be on We Are The Overlap.

I’m still of the mind it’ll be a huge fine. I think the stick in the wheel for points deductions those years and title losses will be the ‘what could have beens’ with European qualification. I think they’ll view any punishment has to be retrospective, so applying a punishment this or next season wouldn’t really be considered fair.

But fuck that’d be funny. It’d be peak Spurs too.

Definitely needs to be more than just relegation. Otherwise they'll just bounce right back up and it'll be nothing more than a very minor inconvenience. Plus, apparently they can't relate them outright, but the league can apply a huge points deduction (like -80) that effectively sends them down.

I think it should be all of these:

  • Massive points deduction
  • Ban from an European contests for 3-5 years
  • Transfer ban for 2-3 seasons (they have plenty of talent in the academy hopper already)
  • Huge financial penalty (in the range of at last £50m or more), with subs of that money going to other clubs who were in the PL during their years of dodgy dealing
  • A big fat asterisk next to so the trophies they win during that window of time, in perpetuity

Oh look, when I say ‘be considered fair’, that’s not my perspective.

I hope you’re right, hopefully I’m just cynical and have nothing more.
