Maybe this is a stretch but....Given that the bottom three were the expected bottom 3, and if you disregard the deductions were reasonably nailed on for relegation from quite early on, were the Forest and Everton deductions calculated so that the PL could appear to be being tough in an effort to show the Government a regulator isnt needed, but actually were designed not to relegate them. and cause little actual hardship to Forest and Everton otherr than a lot of hot air and worried fans (who the FA and PL dont give two hoots about)
If Luton hadn't been quite so useless since Forest lost those points they'd be staying up. The collective bottom 3 this year are probably the worst in PL history. The fact we left 9 points on the table against such poor sides is also the main reason were not getting Europe next season.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if it wasn't carefully contrived to avoid litigation!

I liked Forest until half way through this season. Now I couldn’t care less after all their whinging and conspiracy Clattenburg nonsense. Hope they go down now. Burned a lot of goodwill. Boring.

Breathtaking bit of aftertiming there.

If everything had been completely different the outcome may have been different. And I spotted that. Me. I did.

The important question is what would you have done, had you been in charge?

I just stated some facts on a relatively innocuous thread. No need to be a dick about it to massage the ego.
