If they're going to do anything, why can't they...
A) Let us know what we can do by way of mitigation i.e. how much we need to reduce wages or sell players (granted, the club probably already know this, but not making it public.)
B) Give us the penalty points now, so we know what we're up against. It's only fair to any incoming manager and players. With this uncertainty, it will hamper our ability to recruit.
