It’s a disgrace that he has been allowed to see the season out - should have been suspended straight away.
Will have little impact on Brentford now and they will just replace when the window opens.
Watch Everton get a 6 point deduction next season when they are safe from relegation*.
*assuming they don’t go down this season !
Here we go.....

The Toney thing an absolute disgrace. He pleaded guilty to the charges 1st March. He should have been suspended there and then. Of course scored vs Forest 29th April, cost us at least 1 point, possibly all 3.
Huge impact on so many clubs both top and bottom. If there are threats of legal action against Everton surely there should be here either to Brentford, the FA or the player himself.

Ban a player for half a season for over 200 breaches of rules.
It is a bonkers decision for the ban to take place over the summer whilst also allowing him 4 months to train and get fit and allow him back against teams and players who have had to play 20 odd games.
Why doesn't the ban start in August and last one season. That surely would be fairer

Funnily enough I imagine Brentford would've preferred that too, suspect they were pushing to get it sorted as soon as they were safe.

Toney has been delayed until it has no bearing on other teams. Brentford were never going down from when the charges were bought. Their remaining games now hold no significance at the top or bottom of the league (can u see Man City not winning the league? All clubs at risk of relegation have all played Brentford under the same conditions). No coincidence with the timing for me and looking at it objectively rightfully so.
I don’t lie this narrative of suing other clubs or blaming external influences on our fate this season. Let’s get over the line - we are Nottingham forest football club.

So the Premier League next season will contain either Coventry City or Luton Town.

Just 2 relegation places remaining for next season then.
Panic on the streets of Croydon, Derby, Sheffield, Leicestershire.

I cant see Luton's game being successful in the prem. They may get the odd shock win but most teams will be able to deal with the direct game they play.
Cov have potential to be good. Apart from their troubles over the last 10 years or so, their natural place in the football hierarchy is in or close to the top division.

Still owned by dodgy owners Sisu though. They'll take the parachute payments and come straight back down
