According to Cardiff, all this amounts to a serious breach of the spirit of the Premier League's chairman's charter, which requires clubs to behave with "utmost good faith and honesty to each other".
Well if we're going to start asking for point deductions for those who break that section of the Premier League chairman's charter, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool are going to get dragged straight into the relegation dogfight.

ACCORDING TO BBC news, Moody sent a text to Dougie Freeman (ex Palace and Bolton manager) by mistake who then informed Cardiff.

Is it kinda sad that I dont want Cardiff relegated....I kinda like having an old rival in the league, as long as we smash them every game that would give me more joy than seeing them in a different league.

Obviously a load of bollocks.
Not for the reasons stated above, but because there is an apparent quote from Tone in response to being confronted by Ole-G-S...
"...oooh! I know I didn't ask for it..."
Tone has never, in his life, said "....oooh!..."
The quote in full is also like something from the Dick Emery show from the 70's.
Was the full quote...
"...Hello honkytonks...oooh! I know I didn't ask for it...but I like you..."

It would be nice if this is their last, desperate throw of the dice and they're just completely off their game on Saturday as a result.

It's a really crap piece of evidence isn't it. Presumably Solskjaer wasn't wired, so why didn't he just exaggerate what Tone was supposed to have said? "Yes we found out your starting eleven with some classic skulduggery, you tosser, haha up yours." They still wouldn't have had a case, but at least they wouldn't appear quite so pathetic as they do right now.

Cardiff will have to deal with it, just like QPR had to deal with it when Sam Hamman's bodyguard broke into their hotel the night before their play-off final with Cardiff and set off the fire alarm.
Karma, blueturds, karma.

Funniest things Ive ever heard. Even if they did so what??? Shithouses. Hope they are still sank tomorrow Absolutely. I have little doubt that Tone had some prior knowledge of the Cardiff line up but so what? He definitely got hold of similar team information from insiders when he was at Stoke but there again I have absolutely no doubt so do all managers at all levels. It means next to fuck all. How many teams radically change their game plan from game to game even if the personnel change? Bugger me, if it is advance information on how a team is going to set up ahead of games that make the difference then Tone would have been fooked for most of this Premier League career. It is beyond desperate from Cardiff and is simply embarrassing.

I seem to remember that Tone took to indoor training sessions down Stoke a few years back when he said teams were trying in spy on team selection and tactics.
All part and parcel,it's not like there can be many surprises is it they have a squad of 25 players and if the team has been on a run of good form barring injury you can guess with pretty good accuracy the starting line up!

I thought Solskar was just a bit dim teaming up with Tan after all that went on before but it hasn't taken him long to become entwined in the madness of the owners.
You could see the transformation each week and the win last week sealed the lunacy so that he could add his part to the allegation.
He better hope Tan sacks him soon so he can gain some respect back because he has damaged any he had before he joined them

If players can get an additional match suspension for frivilous appeals, can clubs be docked points for making frivilous complaints?
I think a 10 point deduction for Cardiff would be appropriate.
If I was a Cardiff fan, I would be scared to open the paper or switch on my computer for fear of discovering the latest embarrassing pronouncements of the lunatics who run that particular asylum.
Surely there must be someone at Cardiff who can have a quiet word in the ear of Mr Tan to advise that sometimes it is better to keep quiet and be thought an idiot than to speak (or publish) and prove it.

Seems desperate and childish to me! They really should be more concerned about their own ranks if this is such a big issue, rather than blaming Palace! Now I really want them to go down! Come on STOKE give them another nail in the coffin!

Desperation and straw grasping probably instigated by the owner... they are doomed if we get anything on Saturday. Lets hope we do!

To be fair once it emerged that press suggestions that they wanted the game replayed or even to be awarded the points were in fact a crock of shit and all they wanted was some explanation of what went on then while desperate it is understandable, after all desperate is the game they are in.
