We did but the EFL didn't... We are waiting for the appeal to happen "during the Autumn", which finishes about 20th December! Parties have 2 weeks to lodge an appeal against a disciplinary commission sanction. The league then has 2 weeks to appoint the chair of a league arbitration panel that will hear the appeal. After that the conduct of the proceedings and timing of the final hearing are in the hands of the independent arbitrators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarrowbyOwl Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Wonder if we asked for the points deduction to be suspended pending appeal as allowed for under rule 94.5? 94.5 Any party against whom penalties were imposed under Regulation 92 may apply, initially in writing, to the League Arbitration Tribunal for an order that such penalties be suspended pending the resolution of the Disciplinary Appeal. The League Arbitration Tribunal shall determine any such application having regard to the merits of the Disciplinary Appeal and the representations of the other parties. If we did and it was turned down it doesn’t say much about ‘the merits of the Disciplinary Appeal’. I guess it doesn’t make much practical difference, except the table wouldn’t look so depressing.

It would be fantastic if even just 3 points came off the punishment. But as it’s been said we just need to focus on ourselves and hopefully a draw and win this week will see us on zero points this time next week Parry could try backdating it. Didn't let us get away with it but one rule for the EFL and another for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dronfield_SWFC Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Have you watched the Bury FC doc on the bbc. The demise was causes by the EFL not administering their own rules. It was said on there that the EFL are not fit for purpose. The EFL just shut shop and failed to acknowledge that they had done anything wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 (edited) 15 hours ago, TrickyTrev said: I’m resigned to the fact that we’ve got a points deduction of 12 points and the only way we will get out of this mess is on the pitch. I’m not waiting on the appeal so if some good news does come out of it then it’ll be an unexpected bonus but I’ve put it to the back of my mind if I’m being honest.... unlike the initial hearing where I was on here literally every 20 minutes checking for news. 100% this. Anything less than -12 would be a massive bonus. Edited October 18, 2020 by WalthamOwl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S72 Owl Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Kind of wished we hadn’t appealed and it was all over. Should have just accepted the punishment and fought to prove every one wrong saying we’re nailed on to go down now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrysgame Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 13 hours ago, Plonk said: I’m sure I read that it had to be heard within three weeks of the appeal being lodged. Then again this is theEFL and they aren’t very good at abiding by their own rules. Well if they don't hear the appeal in time, that would mean the points deduction should be removed due to failure to follow due process. Followed by the removal of Mr P, for failing to run a pis!

We would be out of the bottom 3 with another win and confidence would be sky high amongst the lads. Playoff push wouldn't be unrealistic playing like we did yesterday. Didnt leeds finish in the playoffs with a -15 deduction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
