Barnsley threatening EFL ahead of Disciplinary action for Wednesday, Derby & Birmingham

Not sure what to believe anymore but you have think how much longer a delay there can be.

If nine points suspended it means only lose 3 points now which will not put them in the relegation group

I think they're saying 12 now and a further 9 suspended. The situation you're describing would be a farce and would probably see Birmingham challenge it as they were a lot more cooperative than SW and didn't get any points suspended

Think they mean 12 points off now, with another 9 suspended in case they do it again.

No, it means, if true, 12 now and another nine suspended.

SuedeAdidas said:

Or it’s actually 12 points plus another 9 suspended. 

OK, so I am wrong, stop shouting at me, I hurt easily 

I’d prefer they get 21 points deducted now, as from what I’ve seen that’s what they deserve. But will of course take the 12 points if true.

Going to be odd if they deduct 12 points from both teams, but as a result of one going down the other stays up and thus get their deduction next year instead.

Doesnt mean that at all. Both get 12 points deducted & even if one stays up then thats it. Points are only deducted the following season if they get relegated in the season proper, ie finish in the bottom 3 before any points are deducted. 

If SW do get 12 points deducted & Wigan stay up because SW, Luton & Barnsley all go down then you could say it's a win/win for the EFL.

Not so.

For Wigan it is either/or.

Not sure about the Massives

Does that mean if they do it again they get the suspended 9 points plus a fresh 12 for the new offence and then another 9 to rollover for a third offence?
Sounds complicated

12 now and 9 to relegate them or carry over if they don't go down.......
