That is a staggering amount in just 16 years, working out at almost 2 administrations ๐ฃ๐๐ฅ ๐ฆ๐๐๐ฆ๐ข๐ก across the top 5 English leagues
The cumulative 365 points docked is an average of 22 per season โ more than Norwich City have got in the Premier League this season so far

Of course each circumstance has its own permutations, with some clubs having been docked as many as 25 points in the past after entering administration and others as few as 6
Regardless, more needs to be done to protect clubs from rogue owners - it impacts communities

Football isnโt always as it seems. Blackpool's accounts between 2010-11 and 2014-15 show consistent profit.
2 weeks before the start of the 14-15 season they had 8 outfield players and no goalkeeper.
Maybe the ยฃ564k that a club director scooped in dividends could have helped?

I donโt want to go to deep into individual clubs, as Iโm way out of my depth.
But as the good people at @Vysyble have pointed out in their latest annual report, ambition in the Championship โoutweighs common senseโ. If you want Premier League promotion, be prepared to lose money

โWhat is without doubt and with just one exception from 33 instances from 2009, the achievement of economic losses in a promotion-winning season is certain.โ
The report is comprehensive and fascinating. Scratch the surface and you will find the real state of play when it comes to finances in football.
In my opinion it is evident we will soon be reaching boiling point with the regards to economy within the game http://www.vysyble.com/wsriu-5

You can have your mammoth TV deals which are โgood for clubsโ. Potential salary caps. Financial Fair Play.
Bollocks to it.
What about a robust fit and proper persons test? Is that really too much to ask?
