Sheffield Wednesday have been docked twelve points by the English Football League (EFL) after officially entering administration.
The club, which has Zimbabwe international Sean Fusire among its ranks, has entered administration for the first time in its 158-year history.
The EFL confirmed the development, meaning the club now sits on -6 points, rooted at the bottom of the table.
A statement released by the EFL said:
“The EFL can confirm that it has now received formal notice that Dejphon Chansiri, the director of Sheffield Wednesday Football Club, has taken the necessary steps to appoint Administrators to both the Club and also the company which owns Hillsborough.
“Whilst this development results in the automatic deduction of 12 points in accordance with Regulations agreed by all Clubs, it also presents Sheffield Wednesday with the opportunity to move matters towards a successful sale and secure future under new ownership.”
