Incase you didn't hear, every top-dog in the Football League all met-up last week to discuss potential plans for the future season ahead (new rules, laws, regulations and that).
One-idea that came up was to dock-points from clubs who go into Administration.... How the heck does that work?!?
Punishing a club for doing something it cannot easily stop or control...
How can that be right?!
With the increase in the number of clubs hit by the growing money-crisis, we'd surely be heading towards some kind of huge 'Relegation Scrap' involving almost half of each division... And just imagine how bad it would be for Third Division clubs - just like Bristol Rovers (;D ) - who couldn't get the results, nor, therefore, the money.
Liquidation could be looming for many, if this idea is put into place!
It's not like selling players would be an easy option either - not with all-other clubs around you struggling for money, also.
West Ham United - who had a few problems last season - are gonna find a few problems with the millions they're going to not-have from dropping-out of the Premiership - especially if they begin to lose points under this new rule (which I don't believe has been 'passed' yet) for falling into Administration.

If this is an empty threat, it may stop clubs spending beyond their means. Punishing them when they have no control is harsh.
Leeds is a perfect example of a club that spends and spends and spends and now they are paying a big price. A club can survive on limited funds, it's just willing to accept the rough with the smooth.
I think I'm rambling and not making much sense. :)
