Birmingham set to be deducted 9 points dropping them down into 18th :)
Stupid rule, stupid punishment. It's probably not the case, but the article seems to be saying clubs were told they could get points reductions after the period for which they're being punished? And it's either overly harsh or meaningless applying it at this stage of the season, depending on if they end up in the bottom 3 or not.

How many sides need to get docked points for us to go up?

Sheff Wednesday, Derby and Aston Villa are soon to face the same sanctions as Birmingham if they cannot explain huge losses.
