...but the appeal panel could easily conclude this is not a sporting offence and decide on a financial penalty.
That's probably the only way that the full 10 points are handed back. Unlikely, but I wouldn't rule anything out.
Well, the reality is that we might - I think most would probably say that's unlikely though.
I don't think it's worth over analysing what Dyche said to be honest - he's just trying to answer the journo questions as best he can and just focussing on getting as many points on the board as possible. Points deductions shouldn't (and I'm sure don't) change that aim.
Is he suggesting we might get all 10 points back? Sounds like that.
