The Hotel End

...for taking James Beatie as manager - without him actually having his coaching badges. Fined £20,000 (£15,000 deferred till May 2014).

Surely, it would be better for a club with such perilous finances as Stanley to simply be deducted...Oh, I don't know...8pts?  >:D

I was furious when I read about this. Blatant cheating and should be relegated as a result. Please.

Deepcut, surely if Accrington (the club that wouldn't die) erm...dies, it directly affects the Cobblers?  ;)

I hope the FL don't come down Sixfields way to check out whether AB had his coaching badges....there was precious little evidence of it in the later stages of his tenure!  ;)

 ;D Quite...or someone else as a property developer!

Ouch!

If we tried, we could probably eventually link almost everything tenuously with the Cobblers in some way couldn't we?  Even stuff not related to football.  ;)

Go easy you'll usurp Tel for the best one liners

And of course "it's all about Coventry" by its literal English definition shoul be moved - moderator consistency is determined I think whether Tel is wearing his lucky green or pink pants.......

So whats the difference from Tim Sherwood not having the correct qualifications to James Beattie    

Well the Football League is a different organisation to the Prem. So probably that.

both governed by the FA though

It would be very handy if they did get deducted 10 pts..

But that's not really the way that we want to stay up is it, that would be like relying on a tree to keep us in the football league?

clutching at straws comes to mind

Not too many I hope, I would like to be able to see the wood.... 8)

No, staying up because some plucky non-league outfit spends their tiny budget on players instead of ground improvements would suffice!  ;)

thats like complaining to the bbc about a program on channel 4 because they're both state owned. ie: different organisations.

just had to ;D

Are you really that deficient or is it an act...?   ::)
