Ah I should clear some stuff up.
Melbourne (who signed Muscat) are in the national league.
The league South Melbourne and Preston are in is the Victorian state league.
Preston have a very bad history of violence whereas South Melbourne has been very good in recent years, they used to be bad in the early-mid 90s but it's toned down heaps in the last 10 years.
I can't see how we can be stripped of points if Olympiakos could appeal their 6 points deduction citing FIFA law and win.
