[Albion] Brighton charged with several breaches of intermediary regulations

[Mackenzie]

Oh well, bit of an admin error. Not the end of the world.

 

[jackanada]

I really can't see a world in which we've breached some regulations and have self reported it and Palace haven't made at least as big a breach and not reported it.
Kind of hope the FA really stiff us on this because then when my imagined greater breach by prince charming is uncovered they'll have to stiff them much harder.

 

[METALMICKY]

Forced to take back Ali J and play Locadia in at least 50% of the games this season.

And Mark Farrington to come out of retirement!

 

[vagabond]

If we have a transfer ban what’s b.w.2 going to talk about?

 

[GT49er]

Because it happened back in Hughton's day ........................................

I know, I should have added for the benefit of some people!

Bloody hell! - never in the history of NSC can one post have been awarded thumbs up from such diverse extremities of opinion!



OK, I was quite happy being retired ..................... but for the sake of humanity I'll take that United Nations Secretary job now!

 

[oldboyroy]

Ahhh but we are little old Brighton not 1 of the big boys so prepare to be docked points be demoted 2 divisions and fined 2 billion quid!

 

[Turkeydove]

Brighton charged by Football Association over agent regulations breach

Will this be a money fine, or something else

 

[GT49er]

What, again? Twice in a week - that's disgraceful!


Barber out!

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Will this be a money fine, or something else

Lines and a weeks detention

 

[Soton Seagull]

Lines and a weeks detention

'We will score goals'
'We will score goals'
'We will score goals'
'We will score goals'
'We will score goals'......

Haven't the two clubs shared a couple of admin staff over the years? Surely it's not beyond the realms of possibility that the unnamed culprit also worked for them and sabotaged our pristine reputation. Let's face it, he must be so used to their shady practices he probably thought it was standard practice.

Somehow I knew there would be a way in which this was Palace's fault

I will not pretend to understand what this means, but my one question would be if this was discovered in 2019, why has it only just come to light? It would seem that BHA reported to the FA 2 years ago, and yet it has taken them until now to address it. Despite my affiliation, I genuinely agree that BHA will be treated differently to the big clubs, and that is intrinsically unfair, but typical of the way the Premier League is run. I think clubs like ours are just their little playthings. They like the relegation and promotion, as it can give them some new playthings once in a while

Hopefully they will reach a sensible decision with an appropriate punishment

The club present themselves as well run and it seems to be the case to me, indeed they seem overly officious. And yet here we are again. Will be good to get the lowdown at some point, presumably when the release details

Perhaps a less well run club wouldn't self-review to spot the mistake, or would choose to sweep it under the carpet?

I read from the Arsegas article that it was reported before but just been leaked /delt with now. From the article:

The club has openly co-operated with The FA throughout since initially raising the issue with them and will continue to do so.

Maybe Covid interrupted the investigation?
