No BS this info is how it stands...

This is how I understand it. Unless the FA impose something on QPR before the final whistle tomorrow there should be no action that can be taken against as a Championship club. Any points they chose to take off QPR would have to be done next season. Once the final whistle occurs and all games finish the Championship season is over. There is only one grey area and that is you can only become a Premiership club once a member of the Premiership has been relegated. Because at present no clubs are officially relegated QPR and Norwich are technically not Premier League clubs yet. The Premier League fixtures doesn't kickoff until 3pm tomorrow, so providing either West Ham doesn't win or if Blackpool win, West Ham will be relegated and QPR become the first club from the Championship officially promoted. From that point it will virtually be impossible for the FA to take point off us in the Championship.

What about the playoff you ask - well that is a completely separate competition, one that qualification is achieved by finishing in positions 3 to 6 in the league with the winner gaining promotion via a knockout winner takes all tournament.

They wasn't deducted points. They were relegated. Totally different. My point is they can't deduct points once a season is finished. You can still be fined, relelgated or have other sactions imposed.

commission rules mean it has to be by 5pm in writing to the club.

pts deduction after final game is a grey area and would be subject to legal challange

Spot on,and we have already made it known that if its points we will appeal and take it as far as we need to then the FA/FL will be in turmoil
