bobbobbobing Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 I thought it was reported that the league had scraped plans to deduct teams 10 points for going into admin ??or did i read it wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badger22 Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 I thought it was reported that the league had scraped plans to deduct teams 10 points for going into admin ??or did i read it wrongNo, l think it was so teams like Leeds don't do what they did before and get the 10 points deducted then they already know they are down.

croax Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 They will be fine. They've got players such as Cook which they can get a million or so for. Also am I right in thinking that most clubs hover around administration but don't actually go in to administration for some time - meaning it could be next season before QPR get 10 points deducted.

Also am I right in thinking that most clubs hover around administration but don't actually go in to administration for some time - meaning it could be next season before QPR get 10 points deducted.You are correct, they won't be going into administration as they would lose their ground. The story is purely the Revenue's standard tactic to get their money and I've seen it at other clubs, e.g. Swindon 18 months ago. I don't fully understand why there is a tax bill as they went into admin 6 years ago and won't have made a profit since but that's not really relevant here.

Did you not notice how we limped along for vast swathes of the season?We certainly didn't have it all our own way, and for every Coventry or Middlesbrough performance there was a shocker round the corner.How many games did you watch last season in the league, and how do you draw a conclusion that we are not a team too worry about relegation?

I think we are better than to have to rely on others getting points deducted. Secondly, are you telling me that SL has said to GJ "Gary I want us to finish top of the bottom five" B*llocks! We play good football, and we play well against a higher standard of football as last season has shown us. I just think we need to set are standards a little higher than you have.

Rocky Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 :noexpression:Why shouldn't QPR possibly being deducted points be a good thing? a team that's new to the league, ballsed up big style the last time, no players with Championship experience etc etc. You really think myself or Moomin don't want to walk the league!? it aint going to happen fella! This league is tough, gone are the days of us expecting/demanding wins at home!As for SL, he said in a few interviews post Rotherham game, he would be happy with 5th bottom!!! No doubt tongue in cheek but I am sure he'd take that over what happened 8yrs ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappers Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 In terms of attendances, likely to be about 18th, very few players proven at that level, unlikely to be spending big.... What more do you need? Nothing is guaranteed and as a newly promoted side, survival should always be the first target. Last time we spent big and lasted one season!

The Humble Realist Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 You got to be realistic, it cant be a bad thing for anyone except QPR if they get docked 10 points, its plain logic!don't wanna see anyone go into administration but some people are doom and gloom and some are happy clappy. TOp of the bottom 5 wouldnt be unexpected, we are newcomers we've got no right to come in to the league and walk all over people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whooooossshhhh Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 TOp of the bottom 5 wouldnt be unexpected, we are newcomers we've got no right to come in to the league and walk all over people.Absolutely right there Big Man, but it won't stop me looking for a gullible independant bookie in Rugby who might give me some slightly uninformed odds against City going up in exchange for a crisp twenty pound note!Hang on a minute, I seem to remember that the words 'gullible' and 'bookie' just don't go together, even here in The Land That Time Forgot, so although I'm chucking the cash at him with heart not head..........you just never know.
