What annoys me the most about the points deduction system is that it tends not to be the people whose decisions put the club in that position in the first place that get punished. They can walk away without penalty while the club is left to rebuild itself. I accept, however, that, financially speaking, the former senior management of our club and many other clubs have had their fingers burnt. But is it enough to say that is the only punishment they should face?
As things stand it's only the fans that get punished. And the stupid thing is, as much as I hate this system, I can't think of a better way of doing things.
