The Football League have, I believe, instituted a new rule whereby any club within its remit that goes into administration would be deducted points (I think 10, but I have also seen 12 pts). However, the Premiership does have the ability to impose sanctions on a club going into admin' within its remit. There don't appear to be hard rules as to what those sanctions would be.
Leeds have the unenviable worst case scenario of them being relegated this season, which would almost certainly result in admin' and THEN being deducted points in the Nationwide Div 1. All this shows to me is that the FA and their new chief Mark Palios are a completely incompetent. No wonder then that the national team does not deliver. ************************************ Andy Zienkiewicz (Zink-o-vitch) Systematic Marketing Ltd 14 Charlotte Mews London W1T 4EL 020 7636 0400 ************************************ ------------------------ Yahoo!
