The plot thickens....
« on: May 05, 2007, 05:21:14 PM »

So, our friends from Boston are relegated  ;D

Surely the reprieve is more possible now?

I did vote "unsure" in the reprive poll however this is surely on the cards now?

What is the rumours on the grapevine?

Seems to be confirmed on BBC website match report.....If that is the case then "Farce" does not cover it. Because it is in the rules I suppose it is not cheating, but it makes the FA look (even more) stupid and it goes against every principle of decency, honour & sporting behaviour.

(Nothing new for Boston and Steve Evans then!)

They have indeed, just heard it on Sky Sports News.

Jokers, soon we'll have clubs finishing mid-table building up "points banks" by donating ten points for any future seasons possible CVA's!

Its a bloody mockery, an insult to the intelligent & the honest.

What would they have done if they were not relegated via football means?

They cheated Dagenham & Redbridge out of promotion before, and they are cheating again - but within the rules! (Does that make sense?)

GUYS THE POLL WAS NOT "DO YOU THINK WE'LL GET A REPRIEVE?" IT WAS "HOW WOULD YOU FEEL?"

Jeez, read it properly  >:(

Unfortunately, the likelyhood is still remote I'm afraid.

Crawley are supposed to meet a deadline on may 11th which seems unlikely.
honestly think there's A 50% chance of staying up, and yes we will grab it with both hands, eve if the coach driver wouldnt.

I did read the poll properly and I did understand it.

I mentioned it as I didn't want to come across as someone hungry for the reprieve at all costs especially becasue I was starting a thread on the possible folding/expulsion of Boston.

The only way we would get a reprieve is for boston to be thrown out of the conference (not likely with the numpties running the joint). it may have been possible if boston had stayed up, and were then demoted for financial stuff. As for crawley, well i dont think they have to abide by rules.

Boston seem to be very deep in the financial mire. If they agree with their creditors their reduced debt will be still be £1m +, they owe rent on their ground and haven't paid their players for several months. Considering they can't generate any income in the summer I think it will a miracle if they survive
