They've been awful and deserve to go down but I do think it's another thing that highlights how terrible PSR is. They've had it hanging over them for a few years and finally get the points deducted which results in them being relegated to league one.

There's nothing sustainable about punishing clubs to the extent they can't refresh their squad and it directly impacts them dropping down the leagues.

I'm not advocating this as the solution but if you had basically let Leicester spend what they wanted in these years without any punishment, I guarantee you they'd be in a healthier position as a club financially and in terms of its future than they are right now after suffering under the PSR rules.
Totally agree with the point here, however worth noting that even without the points deduction they'd still be in the relegation zone right now. Admittedly with a chance of escaping it over the last 2 games, but on their current form they'd have been unlikely to manage it, they've been in freefall the 2nd half of the season.

Really though, it’s all been worth it for what they won.

They’ll get back to being a premier league/championship yo-yoyo team in a few years, and will always have those incredible memories from ten years ago, and winning the fa cup.

Think theres a reasonable chance we dont see them in the premier league in the next 10 years plus. They are fucked financially

They’ll be back to their normal level of premier league/championship yoyo team within a few years.

Most of the teams they’ll be coming up against will be financially fucked also.

The football food chain always wins out and they’ll be back where they belong imo.

Think there's more chance of them doing a Leeds or Coventry and spending the next 10 years in financial turmoil and circling around the lower end of League One, they might not have even hit rock bottom yet and could take another relegation. They'll do well to avoid administration and judging by the attendance last night the fans have had enough as well.
