West Ham could find themselves Premier League champions this season if the six clubs are expelled and all of their results expunged. Should Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Spurs be thrown out of the English top flight domestic league West Ham would find themselves top of the Premier League nine points clear of second place Leicester City with just six games left to play.
With 21 games played West Ham would be on 49 points to Leicester’s 40 with a game in hand on Foxes.
Leeds would be third on 39 points and Aston Villa on 34 points. Everton would have to settle for fifth with 34 points but inferior goal difference to Villa.
Of course it wouldn’t be same to win the league in those circumstances but history remembers the wins and often not how teams got there.
That said, this scenario is unlikely to happen in reality so lets not get our hopes up too high.
I sincerely hope that this does not happen. Being gifted the title is no better in my eyes than automatically being gifted a spot in the so called European super league. If we’re going to be champions or even qualify for the champions league let’s earn that right, not “win” it through default.
F*ck it. I’ll take it lol.
Rubbing it in spuds faces, we won league coz your board screwed it up lol
I wouldn’t have a problem with it at all, the amount of dodgy decisions these teams get every season means it’s always 12 or more against 11 and effectively cheating they should be expelled to League two just for signing the deal and kicked out of all competitions immediately. They have already committed the crime by signing this agreement and should be shown no mercy, as the players haven’t been consulted they should have the option of being released from their contracts to resume careers elsewhere.
Wicked thoughts Sean! Sadly there is the small matter of winning the remaining games, which honestly looks too far. We are shipping goals for fun, having to score 3 every game! Not feasible. We are being ripped up through the middle, and we know why. Injuries aren’t helping, but other teams put in youngsters, we keep exposing our slowing skipper. This sentiment will not help Nobes or us.
To be honest this “thought” is a load of “crap”… Don’t want to be awarded anything for flip sake, do things the hard and honest way… This is not fantasy football.!!!
