If the Premier League deducted the Big Six enough points to relegate them they would have to play 46 games in the Championship next season ... all the best fitting that in with your new tourney 😂😂😳

Been looking at the FFP thing again. Derby would have been within the limits in 20-21. The exact penalty for that season was NEVER worked out in the nine points for three offences penalty. When Derby accepted the penalty it was final and with no appeal. They have been stitched.
