Should Administration mean relegation

[briggcov]

Yesterday the Leyton Orient Chairman started a move to change the FA rules about clubs going into administration. Using Rotherham as an example he claims that clubs like Rotherham are living beyond their means, paying salaries they can't afford and as such get an unfair advantage in so much that they have players better players than they should have and so the penalty for failure should be higher.

As Coventry fan, a club which very nearly did go under that thought is scarey, but never the less do you think that if clubs faced the possibility of relegation instead of a points deduction, would they control their spending better.

I suppose the issue would arise that if a club was to relegated anyway would that mean a double relegation?

Anyway the poll: Should clubs who go into administration be Deducted points or automatically relegated?

I can only speak from a Swindon perspective. We also very nearly went close to extinction late last year but were saved ultimately by the Fitton Consortium (Thank God). I think the 10 point deduction is punishment enough. To automatically relegate a team seems a bit harsh. This season has seen quite a few clubs saved from the brink and get back to a more secure footing. Keep the rules as ther are.
