If it’s 12, okay! If it’s 21, not okay!

If we get the 12 point deduction and no more at least it gives us something to aim for! Yes still a mammoth task but the way we’ve started I don’t think the seasons all over just yet!

Should we get the extra deductions which are a strong possibility then I really do feel for the lads as I can’t see us clawing tat back…..

Think it all depends on if someone comes in and takes us over before the the Jan transfer window…

Let’s hope the EFL see some sense, however I fear they won’t!

12 for admin, them's the rules.

6, 9 or 12 for FFP/whatever is more than likely.

64 more points from 38 games and we would likely escape relegation even from a 24 point deduction.

Based on the last 2 performances it looks on. However, we'd need to keep those levels up for the rest of the season.

I'm hoping, just hoping, that the 'negotiations' with the EFL were about suspending or delaying the '9 points' if we took the 12 for administration. Remember Leeds were provisionally thrown out of the football league and argued their way out of that, for worse misdemeanours

Very true that Andy. However, can it be said that Leeds had gone out their way to antagonise the EFL and bluff them for years?
It's obvious that the EFL want vengence, so would you expect them to be reasonable?

I'm not suggesting reasonable, I'm more thinking 'legally enforceable'. I doubt theres much goodwill about. In fact the only goodwill appears to be between fans, I've had a number of messages of support, even from a Leeds fan who's message was (minus swear words) 'I hate Derby but wouldn't want them to not be around to hate...'

I'd be the same Andy.
No football club should go to the wall.
Piss taking is one thing, but being that bitter?

Who was the Forest player who paid to watch Notts County when they were in trouble? OK it was only a few quid but it was a nice gesture of solidarity

Not sure Andy, they've a few winding up orders before

Having listened to the interview with MM am I right in thinking that they expect a 4pts deduction? Or did I completely mishear that….. sorry was out on a run blowing out of my arse��

Mel Morris confirms the restated accounts, yet to be published. Would breach the financial sustainability rules and lead to a further potential points deduction?
