Re: Boston saga continues
the rule on administration etc should be clarified to the nth degree. You will probably never see a professional football club go bust ever again, like us, because of the ridiculous rules that allow people like Ken Bates to sell his club to himself under a different guise and therefore waive any debts accrued chasing a dream (not by Bates).
The 10 point rule was origintaed to try to punish clubs for wrongdoings and not being able to balance the books. To mess about DURING a game like Boston allegedly did is taking the mickey out of the governing bodies. The deduction should be enforced. Maybe the rule should be that they will always suffer the deduction next season regardless of where they finish. It shouldn't affect promotion teams as that would be down to cheating - like Boston.
