Hell, I'd accept a bye - if only to get more money into the clubs coffers. Either way, Limassol must be ecstatic on getting into round 3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Heart and Hand 8,949 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Highly doubt the validity of this But if its true we should do exactly what the taigs did and go to the next round and try to get as much cash as we can. Rules are rules Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing this would also technically wipe on of our worst ever results from existence on top of giving us the chance to progress further in the competition by some miracle.

sandyinroyalblue 16,478 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 If the decision goes against Progres can we appeal it? One humiliation is enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see how UEFA would kick them out for this. Legia were kicked out for a sub that came on for the last 10 minutes or something when his team were 6-1 up on aggregate Wouldn't be any more ridiculous than that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueThunder 8,452 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 BTW This isn't new information. There is a Sun article from the 19th of June that mentions the player and his ban. Basically he was signed a few weeks ago but failed a drugs test prior to that at his old club. Progres decided to play him as they were confident they could win the case.

markem 7,251 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Article: 15th June https://www.wort.lu/en/sport/sport-football-player-emmanuel-francoise-tests-positive-for-banned-substance-59424b14a5e74263e13c21c2 French football player Emmanuel Françoise's urine sample taken for the May 14 F91 Dudelange-CS Fola Esch championship game tested positive to a banned substance, the Luxembourgish anti-doping agency (ALAD) said on Thursday. The CS Fola Esch player, who signed with the Progrès Niederkorn for the coming season, has been informed of the results by the ALAD. Whether, or for how long, the 30-year-old player will be banned is not yet known. ALAD said it would notify the disciplinary council against doping, adding that other checks carried out on the day of the game came back negative.

Leeds_Bear 8,101 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Regardless of whether this story is true or not it's great to see so many fans saying they wouldn't want to be put through, one thing we can at least all be proud of today is our supporter base has integrity and pride - unlike some we recognise when we've been fairly beaten and will first look within ourselves rather than pointing the finger or playing the blame game. Bravo Bears. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
graeme_4 34,349 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Actually, on reflection if we get through on a technicality I wouldn't mind. Would give us as opportunity to right one of the biggest wrongs in our clubs history. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
