Tony’s Carp
Player Valuation: £50m
Lot can change but as of today we are on 38 point pace and 18th is only on 19 point pace. A lot would depend on the psychological reaction from the players but the numbers say we COULD at least have a fighting chance of surviving a 12 point deduction. I highly doubt the punishment will be the maximum requested though, even if that story was true.I have been thinking that myself.
IMO this season will break the record for the lowest points total needed for safety.
If we were deducted 12 points in the morning we would be 7 points from safety.
Given the standard of the bottom three I think that is doable.
Next season they will be replaced by Leicester and probably Leeds.
It will be hard to make up 12 points from scratch next season IMO.
You are right that next year will probably be a tougher year in the league and that may be something that needs to be borne in mind if there’s a possible lengthy appeals procedure.
