I think really this deserves its own thread as a frankly huge Portuguese football club (Boavista) has in all likelihood probably seen its last days.
Porto have escaped this basically unscaved, I really can't see what difference a suspended or unsuspended Pinto da Costa makes, and a €150,000 fine plus 6 point deduction ((in)effective immediately) is no punishment whatsoever.
However, relegation to the second division and a fine of €180,000 for Boavista, a club without two pennies to rub together, surely means they cannot continue to function. The whole board has already resigned, probably to resolve themselves from any liability when the receivers come in.
I haven't spoken to erwin today, in fact I'm going to leave it a few days before contacting him as I guess he must feel pretty f*cking awful right now.
