The results tonight were a kick in the teeth. 2 injury time winners in 4 days save BarnsleyForeverAddickted said:
Unfortunately for me, supporting the team goes as far as refusing to give up even when the future looks bleak... I dont see the point elsepeterreeves said:I don't think it's that fans didn't believe in their team it's just that in this particular season we have been kicked around so much on and off the field that your self belief gets worn down..a lot of us saw this coming it was inevitable....the team did not have enough fight and I lost faith like many others but it didn't stop me supporting the team though.
Not a dig by any means but for me its part n parcel along with games like the Play-Off Final, its easy to get behind the team in that scenario so for me its just as easy to believe in the team in a situation like this
As I've said throughout the season when I've argued we'd survive, part of me always felt we might get relegated but that I'd refuse to believe or accept it until it actually happened2 -
If they dont I'm off to Preston.....Dazzler21 said:I'd laugh so hard if Wednesday got a deduction applied this season. Doubt it though.
They have to deduct points & it has to be this season. They charged them this season & the hearing was this season. Makes a mockery of the whole competition if they dont do it this season.7 -
My fear is that Barnsley won't sue the EFL now and if we sue them, they may take revenge via their investigation of the sale. It is safer for them to delay the points reduction until next season. No point Wigan doing anything about that, as we would be the team who are saved unless they think Derby could still be relegated. Anyway, lets see. We all know Wednesday were charged in November and are as guilty as fcuk!0

Only need a 9 point deduction for Sheffield Wednesday now. Go on EFL, you know it makes sense.2
-
9 points is the minimum they can give to Wednesday if guilty. Seeing they gave Birmingham 9 points last season.0
-
Even if Wednesday were deducted, I'd really fear for us next season in the championship with the owner situation, obviously being in the Championship will make the club more attractive to buyers but trying to get in players for the start of the season would be very difficult
Another season of what we've gone through since Jan would be soul destroying1 -
I believe it's an independent arbitration that is deciding/ has decided whether or not Weds are guilty and if so, what the deduction should be. Not sure if they also would recommend when the penalty should be administered. You'd think someone will have to make some kind of announcement tomorrow either way..0

More attractive to crooks i would also believe.siblers said:Even if Wednesday were deducted, I'd really fear for us next season in the championship with the owner situation, obviously being in the Championship will make the club more attractive to buyers but trying to get in players for the start of the season would be very difficult
PV and AB have said League One doesn't affect them. They just need to know who owns CAFC from the EFL.0 -
A few saying on Owls Talk that the season has ended so can’t be applied now.
Tending to agree with them on that point, doesn’t make sense.0 -
EFL will bottle it especially now that the Barnsley owner with deep pockets won’t pursue it3

If Sheffield Weds get a reduction I bet Wigan get theirs rescinded. Be just our luck. What irks me more is if Wigan get theirs rescinded it’ll be Barnsley who suffer.0

We simply were not good enough and probably deserve to go down.
Still plenty of mess to sort out off the pitch that is likely to drag on for some time.
Getting thumped week in week out in the champ will not be pretty.5 -
It doesn't end until the play offs are completed but I agree it won't be applied this season if at all. Wishful thinking on our part.EastTerrace said:A few saying on Owls Talk that the season has ended so can’t be applied now.

Just read on the BBC site that it doesn’t end until the EFL meeting in mid August, but agreed it’s clutching at straws.
In my opinion, and as others have said we should have done better in the last 5-6 games and probably deserve to go down.0 -
How do you all just say we should have done better etc.....they cheated and it was not a level playing field regardless of when it was done. It's fraud....they cheated and then lied about it...9 point minimum5

I was one of those who has dug you out. Your one of the most optimistic fans on here and it sometimes borders insanity.ForeverAddickted said:
lol! Wondered how long it would take - Apologies for believing in my club and sticking by the playersbolloxbolder said:
Like your we are staying up bollocks you are wrong here. They are appealing the independent panel two points deduction as they feel it is not severe enough/ForeverAddickted said:
But as we saw with Macclesfield, they make up their points deduction penalties as they go alongTodds_right_hook said:
They have set a precedence with Birmingham last year. Macclesfields case was completely different.....I say in desperationForeverAddickted said:
EFL will give them an eight point deduction then so we go down on Goal DifferenceWHAddick said:Don’t we ‘only’ need a massives 9 points deduction...surely possible.
They've not relegated Maccesfield for off field issues, they wont do it to Wednesday too
Dont worry I'll take all the comments on the chin about not giving up on survival unlike everyone else who predicted relegation a long time agoHowever, you deserve no criticism for keeping the faith and backing Bows/players. So apologies for any little tiffs we had, you don’t deserve any shit for it.4 -
They did and yes they should be punished. But Wigan didn’t, they don’t deserve to go down. We came back from lockdown, did the hard work and won 2. We haven’t won since, chucking points away against Millwall and Brum in particular. We’ve essentially finished 23rd and deserve to go down.ct_addick said:How do you all just say we should have done better etc.....they cheated and it was not a level playing field regardless of when it was done.

No doubt we deserve to go down, our squad will struggle to be mid table L1. But just for once it would be nice to have some luck and Wednesday get relegated in our place. Being shit in the Championship is better than being shit in L1.0
-
Knowing our luck Wednesday will get a 9 point and Wigan will get three of theirs removed1

We can forget about Sheff Weds as if they get a deduction, they'll surely appeal. No way it'll happen this season now.0

I was under the impression that any appeal would of taken place already. Didn't they have 14 days from verdict to appeal.Chris_from_Sidcup said:We can forget about Sheff Weds as if they get a deduction, they'll surely appeal. No way it'll happen this season now.0 -
The problem is, Wednesday were charged in November. Something strange has been going on for it to take this long.8

It feels the most likely scenario is that this has been dragged out to ensure the points deduction is next season. If it is so complex to take this amount of time, Sheff Wednesday have to be let off. But they are guilty and they will be found guilty thanks to the longest hearing in history.0
-
Any punishment should be for the season when the charge was made. I can’t see it happening now.
if the efl do bottle it and don’t reduce points, I hope Wigan win their appeal5 -
Wigan can't win their appeal and won't. It does genuinely sadden me to say that, but administration has a penalty everybody understands and it needs to remain so. I feel a brotherhood with them as we are both clubs fcuked up by cnuts.0

Also read that they will be limited to a playing squad of 20 next season and have a 2 year transfer ban.MuttleyCAFC said:Wigan can't win their appeal and won't.

Assume that means banned from paying a fee though, as they'd have to be allowed loans and free transfers.0 -
What is a CARD holder?addick1956 said:
Good luck with that....and if they do watch out for the abuse of ungrateful CARD holders who wanted Roland out that led to this...and the revenge is not over yet. With Covid , who will by into football ?Markg2004 said:
