Happy days, a good day for football.

[2k.]

not really a surprise,

If i'm right in thinking doesn't this mean that they get points docked for this season rather than next? which is beneficial to them of course as they are all but down anyway.

[loz]

Well there is a possibility that the point deduction can be carried forward however I think that is the main reason they have gone into administration now.

[lauren]

10 pts been deducted so they go down.

bought out of admin by Bates et al.

[loz]

Already announced that they will not lose any points for the start next season so in essence the punishment means nothing as they were already relegated.

And the club has already been sold to a new group with Ken at the helm of it.

So basically bugger all difference other then leeds digging themselves unfairly out of a hole.

I'll offer a pound for the club.

Hey lauren, shouldn't 'leeds gone into administration' have been posted in the 'non-football' forum? Possibly even under Jokes...

to be honest Bri I thought about it but even I couldn't be so mean. Only Spurz is permitted to fall into those categories.
