Surely the whole points deduction thing could be made much easier. All clubs have to post results by x date, they are then independently audited to check for no funny business (City, Chelsea, Newcastle etc).
Then a sliding scale of points per £ loss over. eg £5m = -2 points, £10m = -4 points, £20m = -10 points or whatever, but getting more severe the bigger the breach. All clear up front, no appeals.
All deductions applied after the winter break giving us a mid-season bonus points deduction round.
