Yeah that is the only problem and a distinct possibility

If Reading get a 9 points deduction, they’ll still only be four points below us. If Derby get 12, they’ll be 7 points below us. It’s not impossible for them to catch up to us at least by Christmas given our current form.

Derby are looking at a combined 21 point deduction, so give it til Easter !

Clever, but given the EFL has pussyfooted around them by negotiating with them regarding their punishment, I just don’t see them getting that many.

The EFL has little option, it's hard to legally enforce their penalties and when contested they often lose, so it's better for them to get the penalties agreed.

Both Derby and Reading would agree the nine points this early in the season, as there's a decent chance they could still get themselves out of the ****, but the twelve points for Derby is unavoidable, as the administration penalty can't be contested and the administrators are unlikely to challenge any points deductions anyway, as it's not in their remit.
