Deduct all 6 clubs 20 points, just enough for Leicester and West ham to finish top 2.

And us to get relegated 😆

Ainsley Maitland-Niles going on loan to West Bromwich (who had 11 points at the time) and ending up finishing higher than Arsenal in the table. I wonder what the odds were on that one in January!

that's why i went with 15.

Ffs totally forgotten we don't even have enough points to stay up 😆

yup. i was like i want to give leicester and west ham enough cushion to win, but i can't sacrifice our league place to make this statement.

No one at Arsenal has said a word about this. Arteta will be asked about it and he'll say he wants to focus on the football etc Stan and Josh will never answer questions on it. We wont hear anything from Edu for ages. We are treated with complete disdain by the owners.

In all honesty I don't think we should be docked points. I absolutely think we should face financial penalties and get thrown out of Europa League though.

Financial penalties will be a huge long lasting penalty with massive consequences for our rebuilding though.

There's no better season than this to dock our points. We are literally irrelevant in the league, just dock enough for us to stay up. Like some said, they don't see any difference finishing 10th or 17th.

Neville and Carragher must have had some inside info on Sky yesterday evening.

Feel sorry for Arteta and the players working for the classless miserable suits who run the club

This showed that the 12 people in charge of these clubs aren't as all-powerful as some on here hyped them up to be. It's looking like ESL is dead within two days of being condemned by the entire football world.

In reality there won't be penalties, not a chance. In fact I think the other 14 clubs will consider it a huge win that the pressure and nature of the withdrawal means that they don't have to offer up any further concessions to the big 6, at least for now.

City were the last ones to sign up and were initially reluctant. Generally the incentives for the cash rich clubs is nowhere near as big, they don't need the extra money.

ohboy

We need this momentum to oust Kroenke.

In all serious, I can see us and Tottenham looking for buyers now. Serious money has been lost.

Potential investors should be licking their lips.

I think the issue with Stamford Bridge killed it. Once that happened Chelsea started the paper work. Then all of a sudden City made their statement. I think they just wanted to get out ahead of Chelsea as they knew that was it.

once Amazon said they weren't interested in the broadcast rights, everyone filled their trousers quick smart.

I don’t think that can happen. It would be very hard to enforce. We decided to set up a new European competition after the current champions league contract ends. We didn’t violate anything legally.

But we did have an ethical transgression. The counter-action needs to be collective from the Premier League and Championship clubs. The smaller teams should lay out a set of principles and refuse to kick a ball until they are adhered to.

What did it say?

Seems like most other clubs or players have issued some kind of rebuke. Arsenal strangely quiet, maybe not surprise from the owners but not one of our players seems to have had anything to say.

Yeah we are strangely quiet. Meek on and off the pitch. Only Auba tweeted that he don't really care about anything.

Liverpool players have collectively now all posted on social media that they refuse the ESL.

Klaus

The players have probably been told not to comment on anything.

I mean.. I don't think the other founding fathers particularly want the players at their clubs to speak up against it either.

Auba's tweet was really weird and then immediately deleted. Very odd.
