Will it be Derby not Wycombe v Argyle next season?

I could be completely wrong on this but I vividly remember hearing that the ruling on points deductions after a season had ended depended on whether it would have any affect on that clubs position or not.
If it made no difference the deduction was carried over until the following season.
If it affected the final position then it would be applied this season.
Like I said, I could be completely wrong.

Yep. That’s why Wigan got their 12 point deduction immediately and Wednesday got it the following season, then reduced to 6 on appeal. No doubt Derby will get the same. Cheating gets
I think the anti-Wycombe sentiment has surely had its day. I mean, it’s years ago. Ainsworth has done a great job at Wycombe and he should be attracting the attention of bigger clubs.
That hair though……

If they've cheated through not adhering to FFP rules then they've been playing with players they really shouldn't have which surely affected what happened this season so they should be relegated & Wycombe stay up.
Fair play to Ainsworth , what he's done there is fantastic.

Can't see the EFL and whoever sorting this out in time for any sanctions to apply to this season, unfortunately.

Well you’ll be able to indulge your grudge to your hearts content next season then Ian. Don’t see em doing a Yeovil though, not whilst Ainsworth is in charge anyway.

They've not exactly been cheating though, they have just used a different accounting format to arrive at their profit/loss figure. In accounting circles they've done nothing wrong. By amortising player values over the length of their contracts, a bigger profit can be shown when they sell.
You might ask, why would they want to record larger profits? Well Championship clubs are allowed to lose up to £39 million per year so by using a different calculating method on their transfer activity, they can show themselves further away from that cap albeit only on paper.
So how?
If you buy a player for £12 million and sell him twelve months later for £24 million, then to you and I a profit of £12 million has been made.
However, if you sign a player for £12 million and his value is amortised over the length of his 4 year contract, his value one year later is only £9 million. Sell him at this point for £24 million and a profit of £15 million can be recorded.
Their appeal has failed because the rules assume that everyone calculates their losses in the same way. Good try Derby but hard luck.
Funny thread this one. We’ve got a minnow club who against all the odds have managed to drag their way up to the Championship, losing out in the end to a big name club who have been caught out using creative accountancy methods. Said minnow club gets labelled 'horrible little club' while a case is made that big name club hasn’t really done anything wrong. Football eh!
I look forward to seeing Gareth Ainsworth rock up at HP next season in his boots, leather jacket and whatever hairstyle he is rocking. Proper football character, good manager and nice bloke.
