Looks like they might be deducted points for buying an ineligible player. I've heard they might end up in the playoffs because of it although BBC said last week that they might get away with a fine.

It involves 3rd party ownership, they bought a guy after the new laws were brought in (following the Tevez West Ham thing). Apparently they are more at fault than West Ham were so in theory should be hit with a harder penalty.

Apparently they tried to defraud the FA which makes it a lot worse. I can't see them getting away with it.

Though apparently if they are deducted points and end up in the play-off position it will mean the play offs have to be delayed.

The irony of it all is the man managing QPR now is the guy who was most vociferous about punishing West Ham for their crime

Ha, good point.

From the Daily Mail:

QPR owner Bernie Ecclestone has admitted he could not name five players in his team, that he always leaves at half-time because he can see which way the game is going, and that he will not be going to the game that could secure their promotion at Watford, saying: "I only go when we are playing locally."

Banger from Sandro in the Chelsea game.

gorgeous goal

Gallas: Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal. is there a bigger mercenary in the Premier League?

Meh, he likes living in London. Nothing wrong with that.

Shocking decision to award a goal to Chelsea.

The Premier League should say "Fuck You" to FIFA and unilaterally introduce Hawkeye.

It was over the line. Terrible error by Gomes.

Did you watch the replay? It was over.

Capi, the entire sphere needs to cross the back of the goal-line. Only then is a goal awarded.

Gomes is a clown.

It was about a centimetre not past the line, sky are now crucifying the linesman for getting it wrong, wankers. "how can he make a decision from there" well he has to make some sort of decision, at least he didn't pussy out making the call.

Gomes such a clown 😃

It wasn't over the line, which makes it even better.

The Sky people are stupid. Of course from a wide angle it's going to look like a fucking goal. The referees need hawkeye.

Don't be silly.

Anywhere else on the pitch and the ball would be given out of bounds without an eyelash batted. That is clearly a goal.

Yes I did, the whole of the ball didn't cross the whole line.
Like everything else Capi- wishing otherwise can't make it so.
Stupid Spuds.

No he doesn't need to make a decision. If you're not sure (which he couldn't be) then there is no decision to make. The moment you decide to take a guess you're bringing factors such as the crowd and player reaction into play.

Are you just guessing or being provocative?
