Is the Phoenix rising from the ashes?

Gordon are you on gas cast your mind back to west ham and tevez 12 games he played were they deducted 36 pts no common sense prevaild in the end ji was crap and was no influence on our performances.

No beach, just quoting the rules, however, if I can recall correctly, SAFC did self report the breach and this is a mitigating factor in the case. Premier League are allowed to use discretion and modify the penalties where applicable in such cases so good luck matey

See o'sullivan's started to up the pace.

What about pardew how does he get away with his head but?

Should have been sacked on the spot.

Marra.

[moocher]

Well is it possible?

you could be wright mate just got back from the match . Gateshead are on there way to Wembley . ps never thought id see the day red n white and black n white walking to the ground together but nice to see

[beachbuddy]

Tevez was a different situation all together??

Facts are mackems had a player that was crap (Lol as if) and loaned him out.

He then came back and the idiots in charge didn't register this, and he played a number of games.

He played in cup game against mk dons and yous lot got to the final, but, should have been kicked out of competition as others have in the past under the same circumstances.

He played some league game, regardless of the result, other teams have been docked points as well as fined.

Unless any Mackem can show me otherwise????

You sound like shearer in disguise he qouted that drivel o motd, the tevez case was qouted as what you say was an non eligible player, yes ive been quiet but I couldn't here much from your fantastic season, keep on our fantastic run and I can see us no far behind the mags

? Your player wasn't registered to play, end of story. He shouldn't have played, clerical error or not. And the club should be dealt with the same way as every other club has that's done the same.

No idea why you keep comparing this to tevez? He was registered and eligible to play? There were rules broken regards transfer fee and his ownership? To which west ham got a hefty fine. In the millions.

Other English clubs have had points deducted or been thrown out of cup competition for doing exactly what the mackems have, the league have cocked up, and it had been kept quiet, but quite rightly others aren't happy.

Oh as for our "fantastic" season? We've been **** for most of it, yet still finished top 10. Funny how one of our poorest seasons in the premier league has only been bettered by yous lot twice, and that was 15 years ago. Lol

[LiamNE]

Newcastle are the superior club Gary without doubt...
I think Sunderland got let off very lightly with no points deduction

Still, assuming Sunderland survive id rather have been a mackem this season. Mags NEED a cup run next season, never mind top 10 just go the distance in a cup and give the fantastic fans of NUFC something to be proud of.

Again without doubt both sets of fans are the best in the BPL, imagine an FA cup final between the two...wow I'd never come out of hiding if I was on the losing end of that one!

Norwich FC has left the building!

[Pighunter]

I like a tight bottom!

[regpude]

Get in.

[garyp]

Its a travesty. Totally undeserved.

[john/r]

well i am still here.

[Davey1970]

big well done, a was 1 of the first to condemn them,

bring it on next season lad's.......!

[kayos]

You have got to give them great credit. 10 out of 12 points from Man City, Man U and Chelsea! If they win on Saturday, 5 wins in a row in the top flight for who knows how many years and could end up 12th in the table and Newcastle maybe just above them in 10th!!

Quite a turnaround!!


With thanks to the BBC website for the above info, as I know he haw about it!!
