I can't help thinking we've made a mistake appealing. On the one hand, I like the rebellious nature and will illustrate how broken everything is when relegation is decided post season the courts. On the other though, I can't help feeling we are going to get docked more points and it will weigh on the players minds when we need them focused. No such thing as a free hit and if anything, we've already seen how vindictive the PL can be and how penalties are made up on the spot. Hope I'm proven wrong.

Be our luck to get an additional deduction
Anyone see our wage bill, somewhere in region of 95mil a year! Puts us tenth in league on spend yet we in bottom 3.

I'm thinking the same way as you RSAN. I'm in two minds about this appeal too - but overall I'm erring on the side of the fact that we could be making a big mistake. Maybe it would have been best to take the points deduction 'on the chin', draw a line in the sand and then move on with everyone knowing where we stand.
