Didn’t a club - Luton(?) - get docked 20-odd points once or am I dreaming that?
Bolton’s debts £46m - is dwarfed during Pompey’s demise when they owed £135m. Although they probably still had oodles of parachute payments still coming through.
Almost guarantee now that Bolton will go into admin and get docked points for next season. Cue some other shark to take them over for fuck all and continue to suck any money they can get their hands on.
I thought FFP was supposed to cap these sort of debts from piling up.
30 points was Luton’s penalty!

There's quite a good piece in the Bolton News about how it's more cash flow than debts that have caused the problems: https://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/sport/17606012.cash-flow-has-pushed-bolton-wanderers-to-the-very-edge/

Leeds also got docked points IIRC. Not sure what for and cannot be bothered to google it.

Down here Yeovils dream takeover by the American millionaire has fallen through on the verge of him signing, his puppet manager has quit and he has walked away, Yeovil are in deep shit financially.
The Yank was bankrupt twice in the US and the FL did not consider him fit or proper after the test!

Oh to be a Bolton fan today, in court and the best solution seems to be administration, reminds me of many a Friday afternoon in the office just constantly refreshing the web to see if we had survived another week.

The official line is Yeovil Town FC can confirm that it has not been possible to agree mutually acceptable terms and conditions with Feliciana EFL Limited and Mr. Robert Couhig, so the proposed sale of the Club to them will not go ahead. The Club will continue to seek potential investors whilst concentrating on planning to bounce back from relegation.
– Spokesperson, Yeovil Town Football Club
He could not secure enough funding to actually buy the club and failed the first "fit and proper test" back in February then appealled it and again failed on insuffiecient funding and chose to not appeal it again. YTFC now actively searching for investors, with Harry Redknapp rumoured to be interested

Bolton in admin according to their owner. 12 point deduction.
What i dont understand is why were Luton deducted 30 points? Why was there punishment more harsh?
