Correct me if I am wrong, but my understanding is that even if they go into admin after next Thursday, the 12 point deduction would still be applied to this season (if it affects the outcome of promotion/relegation which it certainly will).

I think the Thursday is simply the cutoff at which it will always apply to this season. After Thursday, it can apply to this season or the following season depending on which is the most detrimental.

This sentence summarises everything I hate about modern football (for Nigerian read Russian, Chinese, Middle Eastern, Thai, American and on and on and on):

The club are also subject to a £90m takeover bid from Nigerian billionaire Dozy Mmobuosi, but the deal has stalled after the EFL raised questions over the source of his funding.

Point is though that he’ll still pass the fit and proper test in the end. Thank fcuk we’ve got what we’ve got, imo.

I am being very grateful if you would kindly help me. I am going to be getting large sum of money from England.
I need your bank account number to be helping me to getting money.

God bless Queen Victoria.

Much love,
Dozy

For those interested ...
