I still hope we'll bring in one more player. It'll be interesting to see who the clubs around us will bring in too, David Noble being a decent signing by Yeovil.
...and then there's those who are administration bound - I've only read that Stockport are most likely to suffer this.

What's the deal with administration, am I right in thinking they get the points deducted this season if they go into admin now and next season if it is after ?

Yeah it's to prevent a Leeds and Boston scenario from a few seasons back. |

Not exactly. If Yeovil, for example, went into administration after today the FL could choose to hit them now, or next season. Obviously Yeovil would want the points deducted next season, due to their current league position. |

If a points deduction means that a club is relegated, then it is done now.
However if a club is relegated anyway even without a deduction, then it is done next season.

What are the chances of Yeovil going into administration though? They've denied it haven't they? Which I appreciate could mean nothing.

Lots of rumours down here that they are financially fucked. Wouldn't be surprised if they do tbh, especially with Smarmes there. |

Sky Sports News says if Stockport do not agree a deal with HMRC today they will go into administration.

If Stockport get a 10 point deduction that puts them 2 points above us. Right in the mixer.

Yeovil, Stockport and I have heard Oldham as well are all in financial shitstreet right now and all are possible administration threats.
Yeovil are indeed in deep poo hence the appointment of the cheap option of Skivvy as manager instead of Holowhead.

I wonder if they use the club's sound finances as a bargaining chip when they're trying to convince new players to come to the Country Ground. You'd have thought financial stability would be pretty important for a lot of players and that knowing they'll get paid on time every month of their contract would be a big plus.

Exactly what was said before about Fitton not "splashing the cash" |

Wouldn't that deduction be done next season though? My understanding of the new rules was that they don't let clubs use administration to their advantage and the deduction is done, in effect, to cause the most damage. So as Stockport are safe from relegation, they'd get the deduction next season. |

As I understand the rule, if clubs go into administration today they take the points deduction this season. Any clubs going into administration after today, the FL decide whether to apply the deduction this season or next. I'm not sure about this 'most damage' thing, it's mostly just to stop clubs being devious and bending the rules to their advantage i.e. Leeds. If, say, Yeovil go into admin after today they'll probably get the deduction next season because as it is they already stand a good chance of being relegated. |
