Another club being punished for financial reasons.
Will start on -2 next season if they are relegated to the championship.

Ouch, getting silly now I think there will be very little spending this summer in this division, could suit us if we get good fees in
Leeds' finances came out yesterday, they owe about £190million in unpaid transfer fees, of which £73million is due this year. They can sell players and are due a bit of money but surely that's not right?
Does not seem like much of a punishment to me
Jesus, I genuinely have no idea how they work it all out, glad we run a fairly right ship these days though hope it helps us leapfrog some teams in the not too distant future
The more I see the more I like the word 'sustainable' ...
... clubs seem to be taking ridiculous risks with their futures.
As a club we must be inside ffp rules so can you build up credit and then have a big season and go for it
I’m ****e at gambling so I’m happy for the club to avoid it too!
Anyone else think they just spin a wheel to work out what points deduction a club will have, followed by another to say what it will be reduced by in a few weeks?
(And then there is the bonus award which Man City landed on)
(And then there is the bonus award which Man City landed on)
And chuck it all away for a one-time pop at the big time? And then if it goes wrong we're ****ed for the foreseeable. I wouldn't want us to tbh
that’ll teach them!
Especially when they’re coming back down with the parachute money, worth it for the sake of 2 points
That's my concern the punishments aren't severe enough. 2 points with parachute payments is a pointless punishment
They should reduce the parachute payments in that case, they broke the rules to get there in the first place and will now have a massive advantage over the rest of the league directly from that.
But that’s way too sensible for the authorities to even consider.
Pointless punishment. They'll be on 1 point after the first game and it'll just be like they drew the game. Pointless.
Itll get to the point where the selected few may spead. saying that, in the long run, a points deduction now may be beneficial down the line as a deterrent now rather then a genuine mess in 3 or 4 years time with clubs on the brink because no-one pulled them early on.
At this point I would put money on there never being a decision that relegates any club. Any half decent lawyer would pull it to bits.
It's clear now that Everton's punishment is to finish 17th, for example. That's why it's being done piecemeal as they pull away from the bottom three.
