Hmm, not quite there but slightly moving towards snookers now...don't takeovers in the EFL usually take a long time- when the Turkish guy took over Hull it took between 2.5-3 months until all was sealed and this was surely less complex than this. I suppose they know who Kirchner is though and there were some tests in November/December time plus with Preston. Rule has generally been -15 the following season if it doesn't hit the Insolvency Requirements- maybe a vote of clubs to decide? EFL DOES constitute the clubs after all- I struggle to see why the EFL would hand down a deduction that while on the one hand would guarantee relegation for sure, otoh would have zero effect if as is likely they go down. Barnsley who are 3rd bottom still have winnable home games vs Blackpool, Preston and Peterborough- they sit a point above Derby with a game in hand... ...Will let @Hxj do the honours, the full roundup!

Davefevs Posted April 5, 2022 Report Share Posted April 5, 2022 https://www.kingschambers.com/assets/files/News/Kings Insolvency Issue 3Sport Insolvency.pdf seems to imply that any points deduction for a team already relegated would apply the following season, plus it’s after the 4th Thursday in Match. ”sporting sanctions” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good results for Derby (24th) on Saturday, they beat Preston and Barnsley (22nd) drew with Reading (21st). Last night Reading really put the boot in with a win, to make it an unbeaten 4 in a row. Reading now on 37 points, Barnsley on 29, Derby on 28 and Peterborough on 27. All played 40 except Barnsley on 39. In order to overtake Reading, Derby need to take 9 more points over six games, that's 1.5 points a game, some task. More interestingly, Derby can only do this by winning at least three games or wining 2, drawing 3 and losing one, assuming that Reading get no more points. Based upon that scenario the earliest that Derby can get relegated is on Saturday 23 April ... Assuming all results go against them it could be Friday 15 April against Fulham. Of course Derby also need to get one more point than Bansley to finish ahead of them, and one less than Peterborough to stay ahead of them.

Mr Popodopolous Posted April 6, 2022 Report Share Posted April 6, 2022 (edited) Nige had a terrible time at Derby, sure he would take a certain amount of glee if we went there got a point, win whatever and that was the result that confirmed.

Mr Popodopolous Posted April 6, 2022 Report Share Posted April 6, 2022 (edited) Where he found it I dunno- I certainly haven't and I found the original EFL 2021/22 updated rules as far back as last June/July, bookmarked but anyway Kieran Maguire. Anyway, sounds highly likely that if the minimum threshold is not met then it would be NEXT season. As expected. Although it mentioned a bit about schedules?

Jerseybean Posted April 7, 2022 Report Share Posted April 7, 2022 Derby County are apparently finally on their way to being bought, with the club’s administrators now accepting an offer from American businessman Chris Kirchner. The news was confirmed this morning amid reported interest from former Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
