Its not in goal difference order, just points. I think the maths is right

 

It screws us up a bit dunt it

 

RE: It screws us up a bit dunt it

yeah best give em a few quid,

 

so would they really deduct the points we'd won from them? n/t

 

Course they would

It wouldn't be fair to the clubs that haven't played them otherwise.

 

but it wouldn't be fair...

...to the clubs who lost and played a game extra in the season?

bit tricky then eh?

 

RE: Course they would

But what about cards given to players.

Can't remember but its possible that we (or other teams) have had red or yellow cards given to them whilst playing against the Millers that has meant we have had players suspended for subsequent games. How will they counteract this.

 

I know this may seem picky but what would the full table be? (just so we can get the overall picture, like)

 

No idea

But we will lose the points.

 

Did anyone lose points when Wrexham went in to admin?

When we did, did our opponenents lose points.

I think the answer in both cases was no.

 

they're not going into admin...

...as they have no assetts to sell or anything.

if owt happens its liquidation.

 

RE: What it should have said is...

This was nicked by tobes from the Rovers webb site.. the little t-leafff

 

IMO if they we're to go bust every game from then should be recorded as a win to the opposite team...</p>

Either way, if every fixture this season for them was recorded as a win for opposite team or if the remaining games were recorded as a win for opposite team some clubs will be happy but others wont.</p>

For our sake, we better hope that they dont go bust and win the games against our top of the league rivals </p>

 

Who said owt about admin? Anyone?

I think the answer to that is no.

We're talking about a club going out of business. Closing down. Shutting.

 

That is worse case scenario.

It may be that they trade as though they are in admin and therefore no deductions will apply.

All I am saying is lets wait and see, none of us know.

 

RE: Who said owt about admin? Anyone?

This might sound a little daft but here goes.

If a club shuts down, can they reopen in the future?

 

Two words-Accrington Stanley nt

 

Rotherham could certainly have another team

But, as far as I'm aware, they don't own the land, so it would be away from Millmoor. Also, they would have to begin again much further down the football league pyramid. It would really be another club.

Accrington Stanley, Alderstot and Maidstone United all folded I believe. All now have football clubs again, but none have made it back to football league status.

 

Accrington storming the Conference this year -nt

 

With 6 weeks to raise the cash

how do you recon the teams playing them in that 6 weeks will takle the match if knowing they win they will loose the points. Might as well field reserves and save the team possible injuries ??
