When will Albions play-off dream "officially" end?

[dougdeep]

The only team who never wins at Yeovil is us.

 

[Brixtaan]

Ended with the Port Vale game. Just chasing shadows now.

Precisely but just to be sure:

Yeovil 1--3 Leeds

Where have you been, the dream ended at least a couple of weeks ago,just as well as if we did go up we would be in a nightmare,think Derby County.

I rather fear you are correct. The current team would almost certainly be a recipe for disaster in the Championship. However, it would be nice to get into the Play-offs just for a bit of fun. Highly unlikely, though, even if Leeds get zero points back.

Surely the whole point of arbitration is to find the middle ground in coming to a settlement ? 2 opposing viewpoints need to agree at some point. I think the announcement will come next Monday if Leeds win at Yeovil and thus are in a play off spot. If Leeds lose and we win the announcement will be in 2 weeks time after the 46th match has taken place as there will be uproar if we creep into 6th place and it is then taken away. The arbitration panel probably has two envelopes to cover these events. One says zero points , the other says 1 point - you're already in the play offs.

15 or nothing no 5 or 10

They are questioning the whole legality of the penalty not how harsh it was

It will be 0 then as Boston United accepted the same punishment and ended up being demoted 2 divisions. On the basis of Leeds getting 15 points back it would follow that Boston could throw a wobbly as well.

I personally hope they give them the 15 points back!!!!!!!!!!!!!














































THEN take back the golden share and kick the dirty cheating scum out of the league for good.

Make them start at the bottom of the pyramid like Aldershot had to

The ideal scenario but it would only happen on Fantasy Island.
If it happened in reality that would be the dogs bollocks.

the fl and lord mawhinney had not much to do with boston - that was the blue square agm and john moules. but a similar cva situation that has turned around in leeds' favour regarding the cva preferences in the fl rule book.

boston's case has as much bearing on leeds' arbitration as mrs mawhinney's shopping list.

Mrs Mawhinneys shopping list is relevant - she'll get POINTS on her nectar card.

 

[BensGrandad]

I have argued this with my son and I agree that it is 15 or 0 as Leeds say that the points deduction is wrong in which case it will be 15 points. If that is not proved it will be 0 points. Leeds are not disputing the severity of the punishment but the actual verdict.

Hope the f.a take an extra 5 off . Bates gets kicked out of football..for life ,but then WE know how spineless the f.a are.
