Sheff Weds hit again

[wints]

Sheffield Wednesday have been given a further six-point deduction by the English Football League for regulation breaches leaving them 27 points from safety in the Championship.

Former owner Dejphon Chansiri has also received a three-year ban from owning or being a director at any EFL club.

BBC Radio Sheffield reports their latest deduction follows the failure to pay players in March, May and June, as well as other non-payments to staff and HMRC.

The Owls were deducted 12 points in October after the club filed for administration.




Well at least we won't be bottom then.

Talk about kicking someone when they’re down!

At least we won’t be bottom!

They are down anyway.
May as well take all the "hits" this season and start with a clean slate in League 1.

3 year ban for the 'owner;.
they could be fucked for 5 to 10 years.
that's not right.

What do they have to do to get the lifetime ban that's deserved??

EFL showing again their vindictive side. Absolutely no need to do this now the owner has been ousted.

Mercifully it is the former owner who was binned when they filed for Administration. Could still take them years to recover though.

I wonder who carried out the owners and directors checks regarding honesty, integrity, financial stability and future financial soundness before Chansiri was approved and cleared for taking over Wednesday?

Oh look ... It was the EFL !!!!

It never ceases to amaze me that when it comes to football, the clubs and organisations association with the game, dealing in multi million pound enterprises, can have so many unqualified incompetents filling senior roles.

No.

But interesting it was Mandaric selling to a Thai businessman.
Could have been a close call.

Thankfully we got King Power … Wednesday not so fortunate.

The article confirms Chansiri appointment was subject to EFL approval.
The same EFL that are now penalising Wednesday and their fans for the antics of Chansiri … the man they approved.

You really should take a breath and read the context properly before responding.

 

[DagenhamFox]

If we do get relegated and if we end up mid table in League One, Top could decide just to leave it to fester like Chansiri did with Wednesday. Who knows what the future holds.

The EFL should be ashamed of themselves.
