    Another six points deducted from Sheffield Wednesday.

    What's the point?
    They are down anyway.

    The punishment will only have bite if the additional 6 points are deducted next season.

    Indeed.
    I'm not saying the deduction (either one) is right or wrong.
    This second one just seems meaningless, of no value as a deterrent or effectiveness as a sanction.
    Looks like box ticking.

    Someone probably gets paid a lot of money for ticking them there boxes :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Shouldn't those points be reallocated ? CAFC could take a couple

    It has no effect on Wednesday as they were already down.

    These points need to be deducted to go through the process so if similar situations occur people can see what punishment is coming.

    Understood.
    I just think giving Wednesday another 6 point deduction when they are already down is like giving a convict two prison sentences but saying he can serve them both at the same time. One of the punishments is rendered meaningless.
    Hardly an effective deterrent to others.

    Miss out on automatic promotion by one goal, play offs come in shortly after. Reach a cup final of a new competition and it's played at Boothferry Park, the next season it's switched to Wembley. So, top seven only, lucky as ever and no surprises there. :emoticon-0138-think
