    What if the club know that there’s going to be a points deduction as a result of the EFL investigation and so know the playoffs aren’t going to be happening so have decided to make the change now to squeeze some more money out of the fans in season tickets/sales for saturday before it gets officially announced

    Stranger things av happened but doubt it..more chance of getting points dropped this week so cant finish in play offs,I also think we've released Collins while were still in playoffs so bloke has a chance to get another job.

    Deadline for Early Bird ends a week after the play off final. We’ll know punishment by then.

    Can't see any punishment being this season, if it's announced before the end of this season then there is no time for an appeal

    Would have thought his compensation would be more than gained financially in that scenario.

    what if it’s already been told to the club, the club have already put an appeal in and aren’t expecting it to be overturned.

    Possible, but I'm sure like anything else it would have been leaked

    Wouldn't there have been a statement from THE EFL that the findings of the of the investigation are X Y Z and the outcome is ABC or 123

    If there was going to be a points deduction surely it should’ve been done by now? We can’t finish in playoffs and then have a deduction with no time to appeal surely

    I've heard a rumour that Collins had collected the newspaper 99p holiday vouchers only to find out that the board wouldn't allow him to take the holiday during the play off period, so he systematically tried to ruin any chance of us making them.

    He had also agreed to take a few first teamers with him as it was a 6 berth static caravan, hence their drop in standards.

    All adds up.

    Also must be true because although I can't mention names, it came from an uber driver who had just dropped off the daughter of one of Collins family friends and she had been told by their postman.
