Too early to call. They will be over for last season and most probably this season as well. They have stated clearly that the punishment is up to 2023/24. The best they can dream about is staying in the Championship.

They could well be starting next season with a points deduction, and with nothing changing another one in the waiting. Even if their skint owner comes up with many millions they wouldn't be able to spend them without any more contraventions of the rules.

It's similar to death by a thousand cuts and I'm enjoying it.

They should’ve told that any ridiculous appeal will mean extra punishment.

Would Sheffield -18 Wednesday have a gripe with this, how does their case differ

Ipswich have the Prem money. Birmingham and Wrexham have only just come into the Championship rules and are well in the clear at the moment.

Wrexham are never breaching these rules? They haven’t overspent a penny.

Piss take, EFL didn’t want to be responsible for relegating them by giving them the punishment they’re due.

luckily the team is so shite, they’ll still get relegated this season.

The obsession with Leicester is embarrassing

It seems a bit of a let off, teams going into admin get 12 points. Teams cheating the rules only 6!

Come on Grendel…..The day we get sanitised football rivalry where people don’t mock the misfortune of a local team then God help us…. This is exactly why we love it!!! We give it and we take it… and it adds to the atmosphere when we play each other!!

That supports the argument for 6 points

Their fans pissing themselves it's only 6 points on Twitter they are praying they don't appeal it, but believe the EPL can?

Question has to be Leicester won't be the last so what is the fair way forward for all clubs. The rules have been brought in to manage financial inequality, but are in realty equally unenforceable. How wealthy the club is and the quality of the lawyers they can employ drives the outcome which in itself is unfair. The same as any business outside of football.

For Coventry - After seasons of financial mismanagement going back to our premiership years I'm happy to see us settle for the middle ground of success through steady progress and a financially responsible mindset, if we do get promoted i'm a nervous that the temptation to aim high will be a tough challenge.
The only caveat is that as a club and support we are the healthiest we've been for years, with sell out crowds and income guaranteed if we go up. It just needs the owner and manager to deliver without breaking the club.

I have been on the Leicester fans forum. The overwhelming feeling is one of relief that they have got off lightly.

Too right.

Its definitely lenient.

Getting a meagre deduction a couple of seasons later.

Will be justified only if they go down (which i don't think they will)

The piss-poor deduction isn't Leicester's fault though.... its symptomatic of football.

Hopefully a new manager bounce kicks in and they help us out at Portman Road and the Riverside.

Followed by a 20 point deduction.

Well at least they've got something to play for now, they've got to get some results to stay out of the relegation zone

Ashdown · 2026-02-05T22:10:37+0000

Can’t stand these Cov hating types but…it has to be said …..Man City and Chelsea really …….

fatso · 2026-02-05T22:16:20+0000

So for 3 years of blatant cheating they get docked a measly pathetic 6 points?
Just 2 points per season?

If thats all the dock is, then that's no deterant to any other club. If you have the investor you may as well buy yourself out of this division, then take a pathetic 6 points deduction 3 years down the line.
