Just when the fans thought can't get worse?
They've tried boycott of stadium team as lost every game thats happened... they've boycotted merchandise and food outlets as this caused the administration due to lack of income ( owner not withstanding) his revenge for the actions of fans? No fan or club should have to put up with such a uncaring despicable owner... where is EFL in all this? Punishing the fans instead of owner..

This is a massive positive for the fans as mad as that sounds.
They might finally get rid of their owner who was actively blocking bids below his crazily inflated asking price.

Agree with that.
They were expected to get relegated anyway so the points deduction will just bring that forward.

Best option for them
Get rid of the owner
Ownership of their own stadium
Etc.
If they never got into Administration then the club would be liquidated as they were.

Having read the administrator let's hope whoever buys club actually buys the whole lot not bits as the stadium is owned as a separate entity by one of the owners companies? Clubs not owning gbrir in ground is the curse of football and should never be allowed to happen this is where perhaps the new regulator can stop it happening.
