Points deduction rumour... on 19:06 - Jan 9 with 7709 views | QPRConor2000 | Yeah this is BS. If we were in trouble with FFP we would already be under a soft transfer embargo, we also just cant be hit with a points deduction, the club would have to be charged first and the likelihood is the club would be referred to an independent commission who would decide the appropriate sanction. Also the fine doesn't count towards FFP ether, so this rumour is rubbish. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

This is right. The FFP fine was £17m with an up front payment and then basically £10m paid over ten years of which we've got half left. So £1m a season. At the last set of accounts we were paying out £2m a month in wages, so why would you continue to meet payroll of £2m a month but say 'nah we're not paying the £90k a month fine any more'? If they did this, you'd also be looking at way more than just ten points now and let's forget about it. That would be us reneging on the deal, they'd bury us. So that's the good news. It feels... rather unlikely. An accountant speaks…
The bad news is, as I've been saying for 18 months, we are clearly very close to the FFP line, if not beyond it, and have spent the last 3 months sponsoring everything and laying high earners off which, while people have clung onto the idea it's to free up budget for January has often looked like we're trying to scramble back below the line. This is exactly the time of year you would start to face charges, points deductions etc because it's accounts season - and you have to give the EFL a sort of advance preview. So, right time of year, and something like this has been coming, but the reason being given is probably nonsense.

If you go on the EFLs embargo reporting service you will see that we are not listed. If we were under any soft embargo, we would be listed. https://www.efl.com/governance/embargoes/ | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
