Apperently she's just been arrested on something to do with football corruption.

Just on C4 news as happening at the moment.

Yep - think Sullivan's been done too.

All linked to the raids the other week.

Hope they are found guilty and they get relegated.

But that'd only mean that Fulham or Bolton get a reprieve... Premier Leage and FA are too soft to relegate 4 teams.

Presumably you also agree with our demotion in 1990 as well then?

Think we need to be consistent here (and I actually made this point on 606 years ago when Spurs were caught up in some dodgy dealings a few years after we were).  If Brady and Sullivan have acted fraudulently, throw the book at them.  But unless you can prove that Birmingham City itself also enriched itself, you have to leave the club and its fans right out of this.

Terry Brady.  There's a name we haven't heard for a while.  Wonder how he's getting on.

I hope no team is relegated by blokes in grey suits, as that is not fair of the ticket paying supporters.

No I didn’t but I don’t agree that other teams have done the same since and got away with it. It would give me peace of mind knowing that the Fa will give someone the same punishment they gave us

Why would it give you peace of mind, knowing that a poor decision relating to our case was being compounded by another poor decision in theirs?  Doesn't make sense.

You either agree that kicking the fans in the bollocks is a good way to punish boardroom misdemeanors, or you don't.  And I don't.

This must mean jail sentences for the directors of Birmingham, if the police have got enough evidence to arrest them on a corruption charge?

I can't see the FA taking action against the club (and thats any club in the Premier), clubs will fight any such action rigorously in the courts these days, can only see fines being dished out.

Well it was not a poor decision that’s what I am saying the decisions since have been poor. If they want to get corruption out of the game they need to set a big example again like they did with us .

I was gutted when that happened of course I was but what the club did was wrong we cant deny that .As for kicking other fans in the bollocks I couldn’t give a fuck anymore do you honestly think they gave a shit when it happened to us and even in recent years I can count on one hand who actually gave a shit about us facing losing our club .

There's a HUGE difference between having enough evidence to arrest someone and enough to charge them....  

There's now been something like 10 people arrested in this investigation yet no one's been charged (yet).

  Point of information , it was the Football League who demoted us 2 divisions....the FA restored us back to the second tier.
