Cardiff's 3-0 defeat by Crystal Palace in early April should not be allowed to stand, the Welsh club have said in a five-page letter seen by the BBC.
The document, sent by club lawyers to the Premier League, alleges Palace boss Tony Pulis knew sporting director Iain Moody was trying to obtain Cardiff's starting line-up before the game.
Cardiff claim they have proof Moody succeeded and say this breaches league rules. Pulis declined to comment when contacted by the BBC, although Palace have previously denied the claims.
Premier League strugglers Cardiff go on to state that clubs should act in good faith to one another and call into serious question the integrity of the match.
They say Crystal Palace cheated and want the Premier League to take serious action.
Palace won 3-2 at Everton on Wednesday to climb to 11th in the table, on 40 points, a figure Pulis says is enough to ensure their Premier League survival.

The club are taking the mick with this. We lost fair and square.
I'd rather the club be more vocal in its criticism of referees and send the fa a DVD of all the cock ups made by so called top officials .

BBC Radio 5 Live were saying this morning that Cardiff have evidence of the leak and that Cardiff believe Pulis was in on it all the way. Allegedly a Palace staff member screwed up and accidentally texted the team to Dougie Freedman who was the one who let Cardiff know.
A part of me thinks that Cardiff are slightly implying that this is a usual trick of Tony Pulis.
Palace claim the team wasn't the same anyway but that was because Ole then had to ring the changes to his team and tactics as a result.
This could make the end of season even more interesting!

Everyone was saying that Ole's team and tactics were weird. He got so much crap with comments like 'he picks the team out of a hat at 2pm'. Surely this leak ruined our match preparation and put us at an unfair disadvantage.
Complaining about referees is more sour grapes as everyone knows decisions balance themselves out, i.e. Zaha didn't get penalty at Goodison Park and Baines didn't get one at CCS.

Don't worry mate. The problem on here is that too many peple are blinded by the blue/red argument to see the facts of the matter in this case. The problem you'll face convincing anyone, no matter how much evidence there is, is that;
- People have been backing Malky all along (because its an Anti-tan move) and so this would not only bring into question Moody but Malky.
- People want to maintain the illusion that Moody was sacked as part of Tan's interfering (by probably the same supporters that complain Tan is never there). And so anything like this that gives credence to Moody's misdemeanors is dismissed out of hand.
- OGS is being implicated in the Malky in and Tan out argument. So despite (as you rightly point out) that people pointed out both on the radio and on here the odd selection by OGS on that day no-one will attribute it to this. People have massively contradicted themselves to try and cover this up as they've said both that OGS tinkers but that you could have spotted his team selection that day a mile off.
- notice how this hasn't been made a sticky (at the time of posting this), remember the agenda.
- so many prominent posters on this board have defended Malky and Moody to the hilt simply as a mechanism for getting at Tan, so if this proves to be true then a lot of posters will be left with egg on their face and the arguments in tatters.

The club have done the right thing in reporting it, but to appeal the result? If true, I disagree with that. Judging by recent results, palace would have thrashed us whether they knew our team or not.

Its bullshit about decisions balancing themselves out. Look at our games v Liverpool as a prime example. The only game where we had any help from officials was Everton at home as bellers could have seen red and Everton probably should have had a pen.
Look at games v spurs-Loris should have been sent off after 6 minutes.
V Liverpool-denied 2 pens at Anfield. At ccs scousers dived and cheated.
Hull away-blatant pen.
Stoke away-Adam should have been sent off for 2 yellows but crouch was booked
The list could go on.

You have a bizarre agenda Natman.
We got turned over by Palace. Tactically ole was inept and was outwitted by Pulis. He should have gone with his original team if it is the case that the team was leaked.
There is not one poster on here defending moody. Quite a few are pro-Malky. Don't you remember that Malky was the man who got us promoted very easily. Yes he made mistakes in transfer market but it was tan and lim who sanctioned the moves. Personally I think we'd be marginally better off under Malky but we would still be in a relegation battle.
This isn't about blue or red it is about common sense and as far as I'm concerned we lost get over it and move on.

Agree, the club have done the right thing. Not sure if someone engaging in the competition can denote the terms of punishment to another club. If palace are deducted 3 points I think it would still make them safe. It would have an effect on our goal difference and pull us in closer to Norwich.
it isn't going to happen. Get real.
Its hard to argue on the basis of other results. Look at Sunderland at man City! Freak results happen, that result might have given the team confidence to go on this run and taken the pressure off. Its impossible to tell and you almost have to make the decision to punish in isolation to all of that.
no it isn't. If you are seriously suggesting we lost that game because of an alleged leak, your head is buried further in the sand than I thought it was.
