      I would like Leeds to grab the last spot... will be hard for them to do so, but i have always thought Leeds should be in the Premiership again

      Well by the looks of it Cardiff will get an automatic slot and Norwich will be crowned champions which means QPR will have to go through the playoffs to get promotion.

      They will probably get 15 points which will drop them down to 6th, 10 points will mean 3rd. Regardless they will probably have to go through the playoffs as the FA want to make an example.

      There is a direct quote from "an FA source" that said he wants a 15 point deduction and would be upset if it was less than 10.

      I personally dont think they should get a more severe punnishment than what Wet Spam got especially as their "cheating" caused Sheffield United to get relegated which started a major downhill slope resulting with their relegation to the 3rd tier of English football last weeekend.

      The only difference between West Ham and QPR is that QPR do not have Trevor (west ham) Brooking on their board and also within the FA. They were never going to fully punnish his team.

      I just read that as well. not sure I understand the charge fully, but what a blow to the QPR players to have management screw them over like that.

      it all relates to the ownership pf players.

      When QPR bought a player from Argentina they bought from a management company not a club so in essencence the club got f all.

      Think of it like I paid you £1000 for a car to use as much as I liked then someone offered to give you £2000 for the same car. The club was left with no assett and a big hole in their finances.

      It was made illegal in the UK after Carloz Tevez and Javier Mascherano were signed by West Ham for FREE but they never actually owned them and all paperwork stated that the person who owned their contract was Kia Jaborcchian. West Ham were fined £20 million for their involvement.

      I think they deserve it really, to pull off a deal like that after the whole thing with West Ham is pretty stupid.

      I just feel sorry for the fans and players.

      Could you imagine us getting into the top 4, and then finding out Levy had done some dodgy transfer dealings and we miss out through deduction of points. RAGE.
