Sheff Weds Decision 12 points Next season

I think the only bodies that can appeal it are Wednesday and the EFL. Seeing as Wednesday have appealed it, it is probably a good idea to pressure the EFL as they appealed Macclesfield and look what happened there. I think we can take legal action and an appeal by the EFL may mitigate this from their perspective.
It would also serve as a timely warning for other teams not to play silly buggers!1 -
In MM's statement he said they have asked the EFL twice to appeal the decision and have not heard back. I think they are only just going public now.ElliotCAFC said:

If it is true as reported, that the EFL wanted the punishment this season, surely they should appeal.3

Impossible to answer as the Championship squad and League One squad would look vastly different. The Championship team would include Sarr and Matthews and might well stay up but the League One squad will be weaker and probably won't go up.ElliotCAFC said:

But for the sake of your argument, yes if we could play in League One with the squad that just finished the season along with the signings made so far i'd be very confident of promotion.0 -
SWFC want the points deduction moved into the 18/19 season where they finished 24 points clear of relegation.
Given that the Championship doesn’t dish out prize money based on final league standings, it would effectively render the punishment pointless.
They want to have their cake and eat it. And I wouldn’t put it past the EFL to let them get away with it.I know our club is sitting in the hands of shysters but they’re not (sporting) cheats and not a single section of our fanbase is siding with ESI. Rather than playing victim on another team’s forum, I’d feel embarrassed if I was a Wednesday fan.On that point, talk of an agenda is almost comical. SWFC haven’t been relevant since the 20th century so why would the EFL treat you any differently to the 71 other member clubs?4 -
Whilst it is unlikely the EFL would do anything that gave them any difficulty, surely it is a dangerous game Wednesday wanting the punishment brought forward.1

We scraped finishing third yes i'd agree but this was with an injury list to players that teams around us did not suffer, we could have finished in the top two if injuries had been kinder.ElliotCAFC said:

The play offs we were deserved winners even if we had to do it the hard way.
Personally I think the three going up from League One won't pose much trouble in The Championship next season. Wycombe were 10th was it before lockdown?
Would we really have a worse team than the one that got relegated? probably a separate debate from this thread but assuming TS can buy the club and restrictions are lifted i'd certainly be confident of finishing above three of Luton, Barnsley, Rotherham, Coventry, Wycombe.1 - Sponsored links:

It’s in the top hard basket for the EFL now. They doing what they always do no reply to emails and hoping it will go away. Perhaps if we get a decent owner we can sue them for loss of revenue.0
-
@operationpig Pull the other one, it's got bells on
Your owner vastly overstated the value of your ground
The purchase was backdated to the previous year to skirt round the losses made in that FY
He puts money into your club through companies that don't actually exist
You got away with it. If I were you, I'd be fucking embarrassed enough about that to keep quiet.13 -
in The Sun article is said the Indpenedent Commission did not want to strip the 12 points because it was too late in the season and they would not be able to fight their way out of it. What about poor old Wigan and Maclesfield ? They cheated and deserved relegation. I think TS would bankroll us in the championship to have a decent squad.0

If the EFL ran the legal system! Ok Fred West, we will give you 100 meters start and if we don't catch you we will let you off!3

A hard lesson also for Wednesday's arrogant owner that excessive hubris in pursuing a weak appeal can be very counter-productive.5 - Sponsored links:

Nah not surprised either - Imagine trying to sort out the EFL Trophy now?
