    As building work hasn't yet started, they won't be saying goodbye to Griffin Park for quite a while yet.

    Nope. There's still next season's parachute payments to pocket. I'm not sure that the Premier league will release them if we are in administration (and I seem to recall that they don't all get paid in a single yearly tranche).

    Is it still the case that if we go into administration we get deducted 10 points as well? Is that if it happens mid season?

    No doubt the two bell ends know this and wouldn't do it during the season? Would they?

    They changed it after Leeds did it didn't they? Need to enter administration before start of April or something? Otherwise the 10 points come off next season.

    Edit: Seems to be 4th Thursday in March, 12 points for administration and administrators have to offer supporters trust the chance to bid for the club.

    Does this make it less likely that the owners can just wind the club up?

    I wouldn't put anything beyond these two.

    They seem to think rules they don't like or to 'play fair' don't apply to them.

    Well the Allamhouse and Allam Marine accounts are typically filed around April/May so the season will probably be over before we find out the state of their loan.
