In this week's edition, I reveal how
0:01
shocked West Brom have been by how
0:03
quickly the judgment was reached in
0:04
their profit and sustainability case.
0:06
The EFL charged the Championship side
0:08
with breaching their spending limits. A
0:10
two-day hearing concluded on Thursday
0:12
evening last week. By Friday lunchtime,
0:14
the club had been informed they were to
0:16
be docked two points. Legal experts tell
0:18
me that cases of this nature usually
0:20
take several weeks before a judgment is
0:22
delivered. We are still waiting to learn
0:24
the outcome of the Premier League's 115
0:26
plus charges against Manchester City,
0:28
which the club strongly deny. Almost 18
0:31
months after the hearing, West Brom
0:32
learned their fate in less than 24
0:34
hours. The club is adamant they are
0:36
innocent and can still appeal, but given
0:38
a point against Ipswich at the weekend
0:39
guaranteed their survival, they may well
0:41
take the hit. Elsewhere in the column is
0:43
some insight into Marco Silva's appeal
0:45
against an FA ban, how you can get
0:47
Sourav Ganguly in your kit bag,
0:49
Bournemouth adding a Hollywood star to
0:50
the club shop, and the most
0:51
extraordinary story involving vegan
0:53
football club Forest Green Rovers and a
0:55
bacon sandwich. Visit cityam.com to read
