Don’t know how it will affect everything but just gone into administration
Wonder if the EFL will still give them a points deduction in the current circumstances?
Should be a 12 point deduction as the seasons still live, circumstances should have nothing to do with it. At least Tyke should be happy as that would put Wigan bottom. Question is who’s next? Only aMatter of time I think. Blackburn Rovers?

Depends they may play their Bolton Wanderers card out of jail free card - seriously it will be the tip of the iceberg
They were strongly rumoured to be in for Whiteman.Cant see that now.
I'm not sure this has anything to do with Covid. Four weeks ago they were taken over by a Hong Kong business. It baffles me that they are somehow in administration so soon after that.
I thought there was a point in the season, where after that point any points deductions were incurred the following season. As always, happy to be wrong.
Bit of a problem for the efl though, if they penalise Wigan for this then it just exacerbates what is a huge failing on the efl part. Within a month of determining these guys could fund the club it appears they can't. The efl face some .big questions there.
I wonder if the fall off in relations between the UK & China over Hong Kong have anything to do with this? Be quite a coincidence if they didn't?
