Liverpool are likely to face a nine-point deduction if parent company Kop Holdings goes into administration.
League rules say the penalty can be applied if a parent company insolvency is caused by the club's management.
Sources suggest Liverpool will struggle to argue the running of the football club by owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett had not affected Kop Holdings.
Liverpool could enter administration if a sale to the owners of the Boston Red Sox is not completed by 15 October.
If Hicks and Gillett manage to block a £300m takeover of the club by New England Sports Ventures (NESV), their holding company could be put into administration by the Royal Bank of Scotland as a result of their £280m debts.
If only wishing made it so.
... and an £80m loss reported by United.
... and an article run today suggesting that City won't be able to meet UEFA's FFP rules when they're implemented.
It's unlikely that any of this will ever make much of a difference to us, but it'd be just delicious to see our rivals fall by the wayside due to irresponsible ownership.
