(requiring opinion, not fact that can't be ascertained at this stage) It surely won't be the whole of the league, so the complainers should be minimised somewhat?
• Southend
• McDons
• Wombles
• Accy
• Tranmere
• Lincoln
• Rochdale
Promotion: under the MacAnthony Argument, anyone who played our weakend team got an unfair advantage. That's
• Wycombe (currently 1st)
• Ipswich (currently 2nd)
• Coventry (currently 3rd - although they failed to beat us)
• Rotherham (currently 6th - stretching a point slightly but that's what folks like MacAnthony do)
• Gillingham (currently 14th)
• Tranmere (currently 18th)
You can also throw in
• Doncaster, who might (incredibly uncharitably) feel the EFL should have made us play the game against them
It's three points for a win (which complainants may say the EFL effectively handed to some teams), and if you draw a three-point zone below those listed above who beat us, you can also add in
• Oxford
• Fleetwood
• Sunderland
• Bristol Rovers
• Shrewsbury (all four within 3pts of Rotherham), plus
• Burton
• Rochdale
• Lincoln (all within 3pts of Gillingham), plus
• Accy
• Wombles
• McDons (all within 3pts of Tranmere)
As far as I can see, the only two teams which aren't directly affected in one way or other by the first six "walkover" games we played (and the one we didn't, and our resultant punishment) are Blackpool and Peterborough, and one of their chairmen is sabre-rattling about court cases.
So yeah, they've really f*cked it up this time.

Re: Deduction prediction
17 points in total we've been penalised then, and still there'll be hounds baying for our blood.

Edit- Just seen the Iles tweet. Get the feck in! ‘we are staying up’!

It's subject to appeal. Our celebrations might well be premature.

Re: Deduction prediction
Aye, subject to that appeal which will surely come from some direction or other. We can but hope the good fairy wins....jimbo wrote: ↑Thu Nov 21, 2019 6:38 pmIt’s suspended Tango, so unless we start calling more games off then we’re in the clear.TANGODANCER wrote: ↑Thu Nov 21, 2019 6:21 pm17 points in total we've been penalised then, and still there'll be hounds baying for our blood.

Well, now we CAN stay up. Never expected no more points. Changes things hugely. Two less wins needed at least.

Going off the last 2 paragraphs in the EFL’s own statement that doesn’t look likely to me.
It mentions that it’s subject to appeal, then says the Doncaster game will be rearranged ASAP.
