I very much doubt any club will suffer a points deduction. They'll be saying they want a fair system next !!
It appears the big spenders have failed in their bid to rewrite the rules
Only 6 clubs backed the proposal to raise the £39m ceiling and so the attempt was squashed
"The Championship's high rollers are fearful of new penalties, including points deductions, which are set to be handed down for the first time under new tougher rules"
Wonder if the pigs were one of the clubs who attempted to change the rules?

Shame really. If clubs try to live so far beyond their means to buy players to win them more points, then redressing that with a points deduction would seem appropriate, even poetic. Hurt them more than some candy-ass fine the Chairman can pay off on his Visa card, and the effects are longer lasting. Gives teams who play by the rules a chance of justice.
We know it isn't an even playing field, but clubs openly flouting the rules and getting away with it, well, it just gets by goat...
Pigs singled out in the Times today as a club that is going to have to sell its "stars" or else they will fall foul of the FL's new profit and sustainability rules..............just struggling to work out who their stars are
