Re: Brace yourselves in again please ....
Just had a look into this in the FA Rules handbook. The rules are as follows:
Taken from the FA Handbook.
14. INSOLVENCY pROVISIONS
14.A. SPORTING SANCTIONS
14.A.1 If an Insolvency Event shall occur in relation to any Club that Club shall be deducted 10
points. The deduction shall be made forthwith on the happening of the first Insolvency
Event.
14.A.2 Where a Club takes or suffers an Insolvency Event:-
14.A.2.1 during the Playing Season but prior to 5:00 p.m. on the fourth Thursday in
March, the points deduction shall apply immediately;
14.A.2.2 during the Playing Season but after 5:00 p.m. on the fourth Thursday in
March then Rule 14.3 shall apply; and
14.A.2.3 outside the Normal Playing Season, the points deduction shall apply in
respect of the following Season such that the Club starts that Season
on minus 10 points (including a Club or Clubs Relegated from the [ ]
League, where such Club shall be subject to Rule 14 of the [ ] League
Rules).
14.A.3 Where the circumstances set out in Rule 14.2.2 apply and at the end of that Playing
Season, having regard to the number of Competition points awarded (ignoring any
potential deduction):-
a) the Club would be relegated in accordance with The [ ] League Rules, the points

b) the Club would not be relegated as aforesaid, the points deduction will apply
in that Playing Season and [ ] League Rules will then apply (if appropriate)
following the imposition of the points deduction.
