EFL statement re- Bolton, Coventry,Blackpool, Charlton

[BramleyMiller58]

Admin + not finishing the fixture list so it’s got to be -21 hasn’t it?

Should be.
However ......................

Bolton’s has been given a lot of lee way it wouldn’t shock me if they didn’t give any points deduction or gave them it on this season even though it’s ended. Never be shocked on fiddling

There is a date set for admin in this season and that has passed. They have to give them for next season now.

Yes the points will come off next season. Not completing their fixtures will more than likely mean a one or two window transfer embargo so they can’t bring players in that they couldn’t afford in the first place.

Several have also given 2 weeks notice that they are leaving. I suppose they could stay if it’s sorted quickly but if not they are likely to have a very small squad if there’s a transfer embargo.

It’s the EFL that’s talking about a transfer embargo as part of the punishment, that however was before they went into Administration.
Bolton still owe Forest Green Rovers £600k.
Clubs shouldn’t be allowed to bring players in that they can’t afford.
No surprise some of them are leaving to seek employment elsewhere.s

[Silly-miller]

Will Bolton have players to play next year if the players leave and they have an embargo on them?

Was chatting to proctor. He mentioned the club was in financial turmoil when he was there. Looks like he had a narrow escape.
On a positive note. Is there anyone we should be looking at 😊 think vela was touted to be a decent player

[fc_miller]

-12 pts or less if they can help it

[flourbasher]

PW has had a whinge in the tiser saying we were interested in Doige but couldn't match Bolton,s offer so we missed out.
Bolton had the benefit of his services without paying for him.
The ultimate irony being that Doige scored the late goal at the nys. Two of the thirty six or so shipped from a winning position.

Bolton have faced a winding up petition 6 times in the last 18 months and yet they were allowed to make signings last summer.
Unlikely to happen but statement from the EFL would be appropriate.

Yes Vela was / is a decent player.....unfortunately he won't fit in with Paul Warne's squeaky clean image......Vela was thrown out of a restaurant a while ago for abusing staff...
