It's March 7th. Here's the table: It's an honest to god three horse title race with 11 matches to go. At the bottom of the table, Everton getting four points back gave them a bit of breathing room and made it look a lot more likely that the three promoted clubs all go back down together, but the Premier League's points deduction people are still sniffing around them and Forest which threatens to make the end of the season very interesting. In the midtable, Chelsea lost £90.1m last year to add on to the £121.4m they lost the year before, which calls into question how on earth they're going to fit their way into the Premier League rules that limit financial losses to £105m over any three year period. Oh wait, no it doesn't call that into question, they're going to do another firesale of every homegrown player left at the club and then blow past the limit anyway when Boehly spends another billion dollars on even more new players and managers.

JUST MAKING CHILI posted:Seems like a dumb punishment, if their defense was true. On the one hand yes, they should get some leeway on the Johnson transfer given how the financial reporting year and the transfer window don't align perfectly. On the other hand they have signed 400 players since promotion at a total cost of infinity pounds and they are owned by a Greek mobster, so it's hard to say they're actually innocent of financial crimes.

Jose posted:probably nothing in the end but city are fighting it in court instead of accepting the charges so its taking way longer turns out if you shred all the documents, don't write down mycrimes.txt in a WhatsApp group, and tell the investigators to contact the world's highest paid lawyers instead of a knucklehead former footballer you appointed CEO for some reason, the footballing authorities are at a loss for what to do next
