    Does anyone know if they are under financial investigation at present? Could face a points deduction?

    They have been cut from 66/1 to 5/1 for relegation today.

    Anyone know the reason why?

    Which eejit has moved this to general chat? Its League One related. Please move it back.

    Any points deduction could have implications for our L1 survival.

    Its City chat FFS. Blackpool are in LEAGUE ONE - our division.

    Is it a nice view from up on your high horse?

    The second half of the season is about us beating the drop in League One. This article is directly related to relegation in League One is it not?

    Many of the threads in the General Football section have varying connections with League One and, therefore, City. Recent topics cover Sunderland, Luton, Burton and Shrewsbury, amongst others. Nevertheless, they are not directly about City and, at the present time, neither is this one. Therefore, it belongs in the General Football thread.

    Oh give it a rest. Nothing worse than forum with stagnated old threads. There is tidying and tidying too much.

    If they get a points deduction then we move out of the relegation zone. That is directly linked to City.

    And I think you've found way to make that point in an existing thread. I wouldn't hold your breath though, this Blackpool saga has been going on a long time and, whilst it does deem like its reaching its end game, it could still be some time before its sorted.

    The Sunderland forum has all football talk in one thread along with threads about Sunderland.

    I like it. It’s good and everyone comments on the matches of that day and everything together in one place.

    I don’t know if you do stats but it feels as though this forum is slowing down with the same handful of posters keeping it going.

    Its great to have a forum to air our views. After C & B went, it was missed.

    Mods are kept busy. I appreciate they take time to clean the place up.

    But over moderation is as big a turn off as no posts. Nothing worse than a forum with no recent interest. See it at many tin pot clubs.

    You will get complaints which ever way you do it.

    Perhaps because with the ridiculous over moderation (such as the removal/non introduction of ratings as one example) the forum has continued in the direction of C&B and to put it bluntly, is dull as dishwater the majority of the time.

    Where has all the humour gone of the early C&B days? You could have a laugh with other posters who would reply in kind. No one was ever offended and no one took it too seriously. It was exactly what a forum should be.

    Anyone want to discuss the original post or are we just going to carry on arguing and moaning about where this thread should be?

    Second one as it is a story about a possibility that has been there for 12 months and hasn't happened

    It seems daft to be discussing it in a general football chat..... But I think if Blackpool were to suffer a 12 pts deduction then that would deal them a huge psychological blow and, in turn, deal BRADFORD CITY FOOTBALL CLUB (our “CITY”, who we are chatting about right here) a survival boost by dragging another team right into the dogfight.
