From Despair To Where?YorkshireRoyal99Sutekh And once the FL confirm the deduction you may see Peterborough United sue Reading, presumably for loss of earnings (though IMO they should really sue the FL seeing it was their decision to only deduct 6 points last season).

Their argument would be that we broke the rules so we should be the ones paying for the loss of earnings? Especially if the EFL are only acting once our accounts have been sent to them (even though it doesn't make sense why they didn't impose a deduction as and when we broke the rules because you'd imagine they'd have been keeping extra tabs on our finances).
The way I see it, if it's the 6 suspended points being docked then they've had a year to challenge it and they should have challenged it at the time.
If its a new 6pt deduction, it's got fcuk all to do with them as they're in a different league.
Agree, if they felt that we were "under punished" by the EFL, them, along with plenty of other clubs, have had a lot of time to say so. Were there rumours that Barnsley were looking at that last season? Ironically when they were the at their closest to survival.
