Wasn't this essentially what happened to Wigan? Didn't they have their points deducted on the final day?

I dint know about that but it was a change brought about by Leeds when they went into administration once they had been relegated.

Not really administration related but there was some messages in here about what Kirchner said in improving the match day experience so I'll stick my thoughts in here. 

I'm aware this suggestion is not going to please a lot of people that sit in these areas but I would close the corners of the ground now relegation is confirmed for next season. 

With lower attendances expected I feel this would improve the look and feel of the stadium. People in the south west and north east corners will therefore sit in the south, east, north and west stands making the ground feel fuller and also improving the look of games on tv. I'm aware there wont be many games on tv next season but fans watching highlights and seeing an empty north stand aren't going to think they are missing out on much. If money allows it, maybe ST holders that were asked to relocate could get a £50 rebate on a 23/24 season ticket

Long term if the club is once again stable the first thing I would do if I was Kirchner is knock down the north west corner and build another south west style corner, the north west is a horrible eye sore and the non symmetry of the west stand as a whole is ugly. Lastly the idea of a Pride Plaza stuck onto the side of the east stand is a huge no, just look at Coventrys casino and there in tells you the answer. By all means build things around the ground but please no do not attach any buildings to the ground.

There were several that refused to believe the offer wasn’t dependent on division 

He clearly meant "two versions of the business plan" not "two versions of my offer". No-one, literally no-one, would have been preparing an offer on the basis of Championship football next season.

I have been doing some basic Maths - And would I be correct that a club like DCFC would sell around £5 millions worth of season tickets and receive around the same in T V money in the Championship? However in Div 1 the T V money drops to around £500,000? If so that is a huge drop.

i worked it out around £4 million for season tickets. 16,000 x 250 average. obviously depends what split that is of adults and concessions 

not sure on the tv money side

Understand what you are saying. I’d like the club to focus on how we can get more of the community to come to the matches, even in League 1. Be that inviting schools, organisations or whatever. Subsidise the next generation that have been weaned  on Sky Premiership football and can’t see past supporting 4/5 clubs

Even in Div 1 if Derby start a winning run they will come, Derby is a football city.

It will be a relief to be able to focus on what really matters, THE FOOTBALL. ????

The business plan to the EFL is part of the offer to buy the club.

Yep, there's barely any League 1 games on Sky. Only usually during international breaks.
