"the decision protects the credibility of the football league..."
And in other news why Gordon Brown had a really good day yesterday... --------------- Jenkins welcomes Leeds decision Swansea's board took over the club in 2002 Swansea chairman Huw Jenkins has backed a panel's decision to uphold Leeds United's 15-point deduction by the Football League. The decision by the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators means Swansea are now crowned champions of League One. Jenkins told BBC Wales: "It has dragged on a bit. "But the important issues were protecting the interests of everybody else... and the credibility of the Football League." Swansea now look set to be presented with the League One trophy after Saturday's final match of the season away at Brighton. The club has already marked its promotion to the Championship with an open top bus parade around the city. "We have celebrated a bit," said Jenkins. "It's great for the fans as well as recognition of all the hard work that's gone in since we took charge. "To get to that point (promotion to the second tier of English football), we've achieved what we set out to do. "Since Roberto Martinez has taken charge, he has nearly averaged two points a game so I think that speaks highly of what he has achieved as a manager and we are delighted to be in this position and we look forward to next season." _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
