FFP charge for Sheff Wed on 00:31 - Jan 7 with 2330 views | bosh67 | The more I see all this the more I am convinced that we are finally doing things the right way and the only way. It is also making me start to see that it can only be a matter of time before a Championship team crashes out of existence. Within the next 2 years I reckon. |  |

It’s only January Dave. Unlikely to have such a significant impact over the course of full season’s points haul. |  |

FFP charge for Sheff Wed on 14:31 - Jan 7 with 1826 views | quickpassrotter | Normally I would say a 9 or 12 point deduction as punishment (plus the hefty fine). But I have no faith or trust in the EFL. Currently they are settling through their executive management changes - with Harvey having gone and Jevans pushed into an Independent Non Exec role - and Rick Parry back in as Chairman. Don't think that they act fairly or squarely. I don't expect the appropriate punishment for Wednesday. |  | |  |

FFP charge for Sheff Wed on 15:47 - Jan 7 with 1737 views | slmrstid | I think at this point the punishments need to be handed out far more severely than they are. Clubs overspend to try and reach the dreamland but instead fail and thus fail FFP? Tough, down to League 1 you go, and the relegated club gets a reprieve. Lots would be thinking twice then if it was a proper punishment. Might make things a bit barmy for the first year or two when first implemented when teams finishing 22nd/23rd etc end up staying up whilst 8th/9th go down but tough - takes your chance, pays the consequences. Yes that would have affected us had my idea been in place 3/4 years ago, and for some it may make things worse if they find themselves going down again, but proper, tough punishments are the only way you'll ever get it to work. |  | |  |
FFP charge for Sheff Wed on 16:04 - Jan 7 with 1694 views | Irish_Hoop | I think we should get a bit of perspective on our own punishment here. €17m fine payable over 10 years, plus the £3m EFL legal costs is dwarfed by the financial benefits that we got from promotion. The fact that we utterly wasted that money is not down to the EFL. And I’m not ignoring the £22m shareholder loans that were written off. That’s just accounting, and it is arguable that those loans were worthless anyway. |  | |  |

I predict months of procrastination from the EFL whilst Sheffield Wednesday secure a mid table position followed by a points deduction that means they end up in a slightly lower mid table position. |  | |  |
