I see Leeds are grovelling to ALL football fans to help them get the 15 point deduction removed. They are running a petition saying that Rotherham, Bournemouth, Luton have all experienced difficulties etc and its a matter of principle... End of the day whilst I feel sympathy for the fans rules are rules. You dont see Bournemouth or Luton grovelling to get their points back and they are in relegation trouble (not that it would make a hell of a difference) http://www.leedsunited.com/page/NewsroomDetail/0,,10273~1250985,00.html |

The other clubs didn't cheat. They just went broke.
Fuck 'em, hope they get some more deducted for their actions.

Or as Eddiet said today - wait until the last game of the season and see how many points they need to get in the play-offs - and then give them one less than they need  |

I think they can suck my big fat one.
They are in danger of making the season a mockery as those in and around the playoffs don't know the true state of the league due to the threat of legal action possibly reinstating Leeds 15 points. And they had previously signed an agreement not to chase this through the courts too.
If they somehow get the points back I hope the FL and Leeds are subject to a class action lawsuit from the other clubs in our league. Not sure what the grounds would be, but surely the FL can't keep chopping and changing things mid-season. Either they have enforcible rules. Or they don't.

Dock 'em another 10 for breaking that agreement!! |

What rules did Leeds break? Failure to agree a CVA before the start of the season. The 15 point penalty was sanctioned instead of a ban from entering the league competetion, which was the punishment originally being mooted. |

To be fair we're lucky we didnt get deducted points. Be interesting to see how we would react if it was us!?

Ken Bates thought demoting us two divisions was fair punishment for our financial misdemeanours in the eighties, so he should view being docked 15 points as getting off lightly. He can, quite frankly, fuck right off the hypocritical old cunt. |

Even if we did we wouldn't be making this much of a deal of it surely. Our fans could barely be bothered to make a stand when we nearly went out of business let alone fight a points deduction!
