Don't worry, when Man City get relegated into the NLN for their financial irregularities we'll all shuffle up a place.

It doesn’t sound like Morcambe are in a good place does it?

They’re safe, and I wish we were at this stage.

The Grimsby way is much more exciting though, innit?

Football governance is a complete mess, points deductions all over the place, multiple teams, some for now, some carried over to next season, e.g. Sheffield United announced today but for next season.

Any side found  breaking the rules needs to be proportionately punished within a certain time frame, or it makes a mockery of the whole pyramid.

Points deductions don't seem right mid season, and the odd point dropped here and there is pretty meaningless.

I think if a team gets points deducted after the season has started they should not be applied until the end of the season and then only if it causes a significant change. i,e. It causes them to drop out of automatic promotion, drop out of the playoffs or drop into the relegation zone.

If none of those things happen then the point deduction should be held over to the start of the next season.

Point deductions should be a penalty. This one isn’t because Morecambe’s realistic playoff chances were already over.

I thought it was a good place to be - quite picturesque in that part of Lancashire, on the coast and handy for the Lake District 😉

Don’t know all the consequences but on talk sport this last week they were saying that Leeds owe around £190 million on transfers, they have to get promotion to the premiership or they could be in trouble. In some ways you could say how is that sustainable but I suppose they we’re banking on still being in the premiership when they agreed those transfers.
