Ha ha. I don't know but I'm sure we know who will be the first to post it! Happy new year.

So, if we get promotion we pay average players even more money and aim to finish higher than 17th. I do wonder what the point of it is at times. What is the gain?

As I understand it, whilst there is an agreement, relegated clubs still have to satisfy certain criteria and accept FL rules to play the the FL completion. I understand the FL are within their rights to exclude clubs if they do not satisfy the criteria. They are also within the rights to kick...

Also. There was a similar discussion and people suggesting legal action about relegation/points deduction for administration. Nothing came of this either.

True. But they signed up to the basic FL completion rules upon accepting their license. I'm sure it is worth a gamble but I, and other much more qualified people, just cannot see how it will succeed.

For an individual club which isn't in the PL anymore? I cannot see it.

I have said before that I do not think a legal challenge will succeed. Why don't individual clubs challenge every other rule they vote on which they do not like?

...and when they get relegated again and apply for their FL license the FL can say pay or "do one."

I really do think nothing will change until a number of clubs go to the wall. It is so glaringly obvious English football finances are completely ****ed yet no one seems to want to do anything about it. Maybe the FA and the FL should just let clubs fold as opposed to helping them limp along?
