[QUOTE="j'nuh, post: 767307, member: 55446"] Fair point if teams have breached it by a few thousand pounds by mistakenly believing that X didn't count as salary. A public statement with the facts, an apology, a fine and (if breached by a reasonable amount) a small points deduction would have been okay and it would have been quickly forgotten. But the scale of the investigation and the stink it has kicked up suggests that it is a much bigger amount. (Diamond suggested teams have breached it by £2m.) If it is a large amount, then it being a mistake goes out of the window; it would then be knowingly operating in the grey area without seeking clarification on what they were doing was okay. [/QUOTE]
