Newcastle will now also wait to see what the FA does.
After the British government announced the creation of a state regulator to monitor the finances of the Premier League, I think the league wanted to set an example and show the government that it is possible to strictly enforce its own regulations.
The association will now have to measure up to this and the offenses of Man.City, for example, are much more serious.
If the ‘big boys’ of the sector are once again treated with kid gloves and City and Chelsea are doing relatively well despite an extremely high number of serious violations, teams like Newcastle are also likely to become a little more willing to take risks.

They better need reinforcements next week as injury concerns in defense are currently becoming the Magpies’ coffin.
