DC will appeal anyway if he doesn't like the outcome Well, your anticipation "to crack-on" is underwhelmed.... Its now three weeks, not two!

jamiejohn Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I think it’s more likely if we’ve been found guilty that the point deduction is already decided but they are waiting to see if it relegates us if it doesn’t they will put it back to next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sherlyegg Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Just read on tw@tter. Now it's over and decided and no penalty. Sheff Wed should sue the efl, as this nonsense from the efl has completely ruined the owls season. Clicked on a link to a reply..then back and it's been taken down. 5 minutes ago, deano said: They won't do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or to be on the safe side give us a 6 point deduction if we’re still 10 pts clear with 1 to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The valuation could be an issue but then the deduction should be less than 9, depending on the ‘fair valuation’ they deem realistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherlyegg Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 The charges relate to "how and when" it was sold and its inclusion in the 2018 accounts when it was sold a year later. As far as i know we are not in bother re valuation of the ground.. that will have been a different kettle of tuna If we paid stamp duty at the time of the sale, then the efl are pissssing in the wind.....

Would hate to be going in to the last game needing a win. I am not so sure. If Fulham cannot make 2 top at the stage we play them, would they not want to rest key players for play offs, or risk them? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is something I was working out earlier too, if WBA beat fulham on Tuesday then that means Fulham will Only be in the playoffs (assuming Leeds win) and with so many games been played in a short space of time it would be dangerous to put out their first team again I n the last two league games, or to Try too hard and risk injuries Edited July 11, 2020 by Owls-Fan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Given the right of appeal, I can’t help but think that whatever happens we will not see this imposed or defeated until next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I think with 3 games left to play, putting a points deduction to a team that would see them struggling to stay up would be a massive massive call by the EFL, because it will just bring on appeals galore and uncertainty for everyone and leave clubs not knowing which division they will be playing in, can they allow that scenario ? Essentially be punishing them with automatic relegation, and as the days go on I see it even less likely , Derby’s case starting indicates to me that the EFL have made there decision over us but for whatever reason it’s not yet public Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not like we have benefitted from this financial mess since 2017. If the verdict goes against us there is a right of appeal so whoever loses will trigger that and the uncertainty will go into next season id guess. Unless the appeal is a quick turnaround. The other clubs can’t complain about that. the only other scenario is that we take a deduction on the chin that doesn’t relegate us and decide against the appeal. But DC seems the kind of man who will fight to the end on it. Edited July 11, 2020 by Bluesteel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
