    Not happening this is it? I thought a deduction might be announced today given they’ve only got 12 more points to play for.

    Relax. If the EFL do not deal with the matter before the end of the season, then we sue them. There is no way that we will walk away and meekly accept our fate again whilst another club laughs up their sleeve.

    it isn’t in the EFL’s control is it?

    The case against Sheffield Wednesday is crystal clear. If they had not sold the ground to a connected party for a grossly inflated sum, they had lost £60 odd million in 3 years when FFP allows them to lose just £39m. They have ignored the FFP rules and have gone miles over the allowance. That is one punishable offence. Then they attempted a cover up, and had to extend their year end in order to accomplish it. The owner had never paid a penny for the ground by the new year end. It was clumsy and they were caught. That is a second offence, and it would usually double the initial punishment. The club has been badly run and then it has cheated. They deserve the book throwing at them, and I believe that it will be.

    We threatened to sue the EFL if we were relegated on the basis of results to date (before the restart). If we fail to stay up by one place, and Sheffield Wednesday have not been punished, then I believe our owners will sue, because it will be unjust. If we fail to stay up by more than 1 place, we will let another club do the suing.

    I cant see it personally. I agree Sheffield Wednesday are getting away with it but the fact Chansiri has escaped censure doesn't fill me with hope.

    Read yesterday the hearing was brought forward as a result of our letter to the EFL.

    I'd rather we stayed up on merit than trying to do it because others have been caught cheating.

    Either way for me. No qualms about cheats getting their just desserts.

    I think we all would. I'd rather see cheats punished accordingly though.

    This is true.

    Mind, I bet they get a deduction next season assuming they get one

    Aren’t there also allegations regarding fake sponsors and a fake taxi company, none of which are actually trading?

    I wouldn't. I'd laugh my **** off if we finished in the bottom 3 but Wednesday got relegated instead of us

    My information comes from a cursory reading of the Annual Financial statements, which can be viewed on line at Companies House. I do not know anything about the rest, but if you are right, those sums should also be deducted in order to determine FFP losses.

    I think one is Chansiri (sponsor of the stand) - no such trading business at that time. Then Elevate was supposed to be a drinks company - didn’t trade, and the other was a taxi company which doesn’t exist.

    the Wednesday fan I work with blames it on the EFL.......Chansiri has only done it because he’s not allowed to put as much as he wants in above board, it’s his money and if he wants to put it in he should be able to. He says other teams, like Wigan are different to Wednesday because there owners can’t afford it so they shouldn’t be able to and they deserve their punishment.
