Crisis club Sheffield Wednesday hit with new points deduction
Cash-strapped Sheffield Wednesday have been handed a further six-point deduction by the English Football League (EFL), it was announced Monday.
The most recent charges relate to the Championship club's failure to pay players in March, May, and June of this year, as well as other non-payments to its staff and British tax authorities.
The former Premier League club were hit with a 12-point deduction on October 24 after filing for administration.
They are bottom of the table in the Championship, the second tier of English football, and are now on -10 points.
Former Owls owner Dejphon Chansiri, a Thai businessman who ended his association with the club after placing it in administration, has also been banned from being an owner or director of any EFL club for the next three years.
An EFL statement read: "Sheffield Wednesday FC are to be deducted six points with immediate effect for multiple breaches of EFL regulations relating to payment obligations, with the club's former owner, Mr Dejphon Chansiri, prohibited from being an owner or director of any EFL club for a period of three years.
"The sanctions on both the club and Mr Chansiri can be confirmed after the parties reached an agreement on the appropriate sanction which was subsequently ratified by the chair of the appointed independent disciplinary commission."
