Correct, I do feel sorry for Wigan once again the EFL are supposed to require proof of funds from a potential new owner that he can cover the running costs of said club for up to a full season, so have they cocked up again? I mean a month FFS. But they have got to be seen as consistent and treating all clubs the same. They've been taking points off Macclesfield all season like taking chocolate decorations off a Christmas tree. And then theirs what they did for Bury or didn't do, bunch of.................

WalthamOwl Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Surely this has got to be sorted this week. It’s ridiculous that we now have only 5 games left and we don’t know if we have a point deduction or not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This way, we won’t appeal and cause them even more headaches. Far fetched I know, but this is the EFL so who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Down South Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 7 hours ago, Shez said: Would relegation be such a disaster. Next year there’ll be two from WBA, Leeds,Brentford, Forest and Fulham alone with possibly Villa, Norwich and one from Brighton, WHU our Bournemouth...all with better squads, more resources and likelihood of top 6 will be slim. Wouldn’t building a new, cheaper team be easier from the top of league one than the bottom/middle of the championship Attendences may actually improve if performances and results are positive (more likely in that division)...and it isn’t as if money is lavished on championship clubs as it is (other than the relegated teams) If I was convinced of our ability to rebuild and bounce back I might agree with you, but I think the most likely outcome would be that we end up with a cheaper team sat in mid-table League 1 obscurity.

kirksandallowl Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 It seems some posters still don’t understand that it isn’t the EFL that determines any punishment should there be one, it is the independent panel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
