Has to be more than last time surely as well unless these are different charges ?

What I don't get is this is the third successive season they've had a points deduction now and yet this amounts to no more than a slap on the wrist. If they were first time offenders then maybe it's more tolerable but this is beyond the joke.

It doesn't really make sense does it, if your a Wigan fan your probably not too happy but it was an independent panel not the EFL itself.

Someone on our forum seems to think Reading have an enforced wage cap of £1400 p/w. I'd have thought their new signings would be on more than that though?

There should be a standard tariff in place, which would stop all of the arguing and delays.
EG. First time you don't pay your players on time- 2 points deduction immediately
Second time - 4 points deduction etc etc

Simple really, but really too simple for the beurocratic EFL to deal with

On the day they had the points deduction they went out and signed a new player. As soon as they get a transfer embargo lifted they signed 3 good players for this league pretty much straight away so there basically taking the piss.

Booooooo. But a sign of the times, I will buy the magazine instead.

Reading, Wycombe and Lincoln in this league don't do them, anyone know of anymore?
This is what we've done, sounds like something just to keep the people who collect team sheets happy (didn't realise that was a thing). From what I've read, they'll look to do an end of season review.

Interesting, not really a teamsheet man myself but this sounds better than nothing I suppose!

Strange one, but with NML in the Guatemala side now then I'd imagine he's one. Washington the other, but can't figure the third out - Cashin, maybe? Would be his first call-up. I think Hourihane is finished with the Irish national team. Darren Robinson is in the first team now, too, who will be going with the U21 side. Not sure if that counts.

U21's would count as would U20/18 etc.

Saw last season that half of League Ones games during international breaks usually get called off - anyone expecting their games to also be called off?

We have one or two players that MIGHT get called up to respective U21 sides, but its a long shot. Omar Beckles not played for Grenada for a while though.........

Not sure if Burton have any but can't see ours, not sure if Arblaster is still with the U20's although Josh Thomas could be called up for Wales U21

We have two international players (Finland) so unless we sign another should be OK. Typically I can't go!

How come some games being called off already? Didn’t think any squads had been announced.

We’ve got Wigan that day and don’t want to book anything until I know it’s on.

Reading off ffs.

Would have been our largest following of the season. No doubt moved to a Tuesday night in November

Balls. Friggin tintop international games. The league games should go ahead regardless imo seeing as a lot clubs are affected anyway. Where has this been announced, nothing from the club yet?

Aye spoke too soon as GGMI posted on ours it was. However I had my dad call the club shop to try get us tickets together and they said it’s incredibly likely that it will be called off in the next day or so

Looking at our squad I'd only expect two callups. Not sure about Wigan but should be on our end unless there's a first time callup to youth squads for some youngsters or Hector receives his first callup for a couple years

I guess if the 3 required to call the game off includes loanees, for us that could be Vale, Cox and Hoole. No idea about Readings players though
