    The wait about the potential points reduction is frustrating I no its up to us to win on the day and a bit of luck with other results, but why is it taking so long and will it even happen its confusing me as to how the relegation is going to be decided...

    Every time the EFL uses the word integrity I laugh out loud.

    Could it just be that the EFL are trying to drag this out till next season?

    Presumably its better for Sheff Wed to start with -12 next season than it is to be deducted 12 this season?

    (purely speculating, i don't really know any of the specifics regarding the case).

    I think it's because the EFL just want the designer clubs in the Championship. Likewise the Premier League would prefer Nottingham Forest or West Brom to Swansea of Cardiff getting promoted.

    Football snobbery at it's finest. They only like the small clubs on F.A Cup third round day for T.V ratings then it's move over now you've had your moment let the big boys that have survived fielding their reserves take over.

    The Wigan deduction should be pretty straightforward and should be applied on Wednesday evening after the results. (Subject to appeal). I think we need to forget about the The Sheffield Wednesday deduction. The issue is complex and it’s likely to drag on after the season has finished.

    I think the covering up of evidence is the more serious case in the investigation .

    If they get a deduction we've got a real chance. Surely a decision has got to be made either way
