Leeds United land 10-points deduction in new disaster – A big advantage for Ipswich Town

As the Whites try to allay their financial worries, former Leeds and England goalkeeper Paul Robinson, who has strong ties with his old club, revealed the circumstances and acknowledged that getting promoted would be a “huge bonus.”

Even though the team made a record-breaking £189.7 million in revenue in 2022–2023—they lost £33.7 million because they were demoted to the Championship.

Leeds United could be hit with points deduction

Even if the Whites are promoted to the top division, Robinson worries they may end up in a same situation as Sheffield United, given that the struggling Blades were obliged to sell some of their star players in order to balance the books last summer.

“Leeds United is a major football team, both in terms of their worldwide fan base and financial generation. These days, they are larger than many Premier League sides.

“There’s still more uncertainty over the stadium. Elland Road has long been in need of maintenance. They are discussing whether or not to redevelop the area.

“However, if the funds aren’t there to make money, take a look at Everton, who built a new stadium in an effort to improve their lot and raise money. It’s challenging to do when you risk being penalized for it.

“The accounts are undoubtedly concerning, but if that’s the case, Leeds would undoubtedly benefit greatly from being in the Premier League.”

“Joining the Premier League is difficult enough; you just hope there isn’t any excessive spending that costs them a deduction in points.”

It’s challenging to hold on, though, when you’re already behind the black ball and losing points. A point deduction appears to be feasible, which would be disastrous.

“Much like Sheffield United did the previous season, if you believe what you hear, their finances would have collapsed if they hadn’t made the Premier League.

“Because they had to sell players before entering the Premier League, they began the Premier League season weaker than they concluded the Championship with the roster they had.

“They have managed to stay afloat thanks to the Premier League money.”
