You sound disappointed - wish it was -20 and we couldn't sign any players?
I'm exceptionally disappointed that the FL don't apply their rules properly and fairly, it would have been very easy of them to say the golden share could only be sold to owners who have the best interests of the club at heart and so we won't allow it to be purchased by an offshoot of the company that put us into admin, this would have meant for Appleton to have gotten the best deal for the creditors the golden share would have been sold to someone else. This of course needed to be said before Appleton chose his prefered bidder.
Regarding -10 points rather than (-20) I think actually -15 would have fit with clubs who have broken similiar rules, I feel conflicted about this, on one hand I'm pleased our club was punished less severely making relegation less likely, on the other hand it feels like you've just won a game from a penalty that everyone in the stadium knew was nonsense, this is worse than that however as this time the ref wasn't mistaken, he chose to give us the unfair penalty. So I'm conflicted, on one hand pleased, on the other hand it hurts the integrity of the competition and that hurts everyone involved in it including us.
Regarding signing players, similar confliction, 1) everything I just said above, 2) had we not have been able to sign players we would have been more likely to see the accounts, more likely to have moved back to the ricoh where the revenues were higher for ffp and if this didn't happen, we'd at least have more pressure on sisu and less people happily going to sixfields, but the season would have gone worse. But overall on that I'm pleased we can sign players but think we shouldn't be moaning about the 75% rules because actually we are very lucky we can sign them at all.
