If we do indeed start on minus 15 the season isnt over, If you look at our squad, They are never going to win leagues and FA Cups so if they managed to keep us up it would be the biggest acheivment in their career and a chance for the kids to get noticed and try and get a move. If we start on minus i will certainly be having a wager on us to stay up.

How many times have I told you about leaving the top off the Domestos!!

Have a glass of water, take two Aspirin and have a lie down in a dark room for a couple of hours.

Look at the team..Lets say we lose just Christie before the transfer window, and lets say Leon Clarke gets injured...

the team is....


-----------Wilson------------------
-----Moussa-----------------------
--Fleck------Thomas------Baker---
-----------Daniels-----------------
-Adams--Willis---Barton---Clarke-


Relegation written all over it, never mind the 15 points !

I thought this idea of -15 points was to keep the season alive for everyone else, that way we don't have the league title wrapped up by Christmas

Yes. I couldn't agree more...if we only field 10 players, with a 15pt deduction - relegation is a cert.

I would be very surprised if it is only -15 points , i expect it to be more likely -25.

I agree, especially if it means that when (if) we come out of admin and the embargo is lifted, Pressley gets the green light to sign some of the players he's been lining up. My glass is still very much half full and looking to get fuller.

The transfer deadline will be over by then leaving just free agents that nobody else wants- relegation this season is assured , thats if the fixtures are fulfilled of course.

We would need to have enough points to get into the playoffs just to have a chance of being safe. We don't have a playoff squad as things stand. Our squad is weaker than last season.

I would think that if there are further points deductions that SISU will issue legal challenges especially if it is more than -15. Will have to wait see what the FL discretion brings

The league would not take kindly to that , i think they can also increase the punishment if a club appeals as well.
We're Luton deducted 30 points once after appeal?
