I think that deadline was for new offences, not suspended

Granted taking this from the foul cesspit that is Twitter so maybe nonsense

My own opinion that giving us this any later than now would be somewhat harsh mind you

I’m just numb to all this now

Of course I don’t want a points deduction but the leaks and twits on Twitter no news from EFL or the club just silence and rumours it’s just boring I think for us all

Huddersfield takeover has gone through.....I assume that solves their admin issue....

It stays "Hoyle will write off £40m as part of the deal in order to keep the Terriers out of administration, which would have led to the club receiving a 12-point deduction and almost certainly consigned them to relegation."

Unnamed takeover group is pretty suspect but who knows.

I do hope is does not come down to the last game at Hudders with us and them both needing something to stay ip. The spectre of Warnocks final act as a manager sending us down...................................

I doubt that it would be "final" as he'll probably have another final next year and the one after. :wink:

I think you're all getting worked up over nothing.

There's no way we're getting a 6 point deduction. I reckon it'll be five.

Well this is fun! we're now supposedly after this so called Thursday deadline and still total silence :shock: It's not like its important or anything lol.....you'd have thought at least one from the following EFL , Reading FC or maybe an "In the Know Journalist" would be passing on some sort of latest info....ah well, i guess we will just have to hurry up and wait!! :D :D

Well the possible deadline of 5pm on the 4th Thursday of March has been and gone, so either we're in the clear for this season or that rule never applied to our situation.

So doesn't really answer anything yet.

I still wouldn't be incredibly surprised if this ended up rearing it's head once the season has finished after we've finished 5 points above the bottom 3.

We go into the final game safe, put in an absolutely non-existent performance and lose 2-0, then get deducted 6pts the next day to get relegated when a point would have kept us up.

There is no way the Authorities would retrospectively apply a points deduction after the end of a season; thats a massive lae suit waiting to happen!

You'd like to think the delay is a result of the club somehow finding a way of challenging it – which I don't understand why should mean the EFL have to release a statement (as yet anyway) if this is the case.

Personally, I wouldn't say the date applies to us, as we're talking about a suspended deduction and historic issues.

The date was to stop clubs timing things like adminstration to their advantage. Doesn't apply to us.

Whether that's how the FL rules work, don't know.

Think for the sake of general fairness you can’t leave it too late. Even with just 8 games left that’s pushing it imo
