^^^^^^^^^this is correct.

MATHEMATICALLY it can affect them this season, realistically it can't.

As it could mathematically it has to be deducted this season.
That rule may well be tweaked following this.

Also, fromwhat i understand it wasn't stockport that put themselves into admin,it was a creditor, and not even their largest one.
THey were in the process of putting together a rescue package to avoid it, however this creditor was not prepared to wait.
