A Club is docked the equivalent of 3 wins (6 points in SL, 9 points in Championships) for going into Administration.
This can be commuted back, say to 4 points, dependent on the way in which the Club comes out of Administration and in particular the degree to which it results in old creditors being paid off (if at all). The RFL announces the penalty when it becomes clear whether or not there are grounds to apply a reduced sanction.

What about if the club was placed into administration on the guidance received by the governing body, with the promise that the club would not receive a points deduction?

If you have that in writing you have a case. On the flip side of that think Mr Carter has an even bigger case after being refused the admin route and threatened with expulsion and therefore cutting costs and having to dip into his own funds.

Of which there is no proof. The fanciful ramblings of a man revelling in his own white Knight status.

Show us the letter where he was told this.

He's said this in tv and paper interviews. I am sure if weren't true then he would have been up before the RFL being asked to explain this. After all the RFL are pretty quick to challenge any chairman that goes up against them just ask the humberside lot.

People say lots in interviews. There is no evidence of this anywhere.
The RFL did what they always do. Ignore it and pretend everything is rosy.

Although this time, RW has effectively accused either Solly/Rimmer of being racists, or the RFL as a whole as being a racist organisation.

They will have to respond to that ASAP.

Although - probably after lunch....

I thought about explaining why you were wrong, then remembered you were just making stuff again because you wanted attention. Someone should explain to you the difference between good attention and bad attention.

The thing about the Michael Carter/Wakefield red herring is the deliberate lack of detail coming from Mr Carter.

Months ago Wakefield fans told us that Michael Carter was told if they go in to admin the would be relegated to C1. This over the months has morphed in to what we see now where it seems Mr Carter approached the RFL with a plan to simply write off debt they could pay but didnt want to (we now know this as fact because.......well..... they have paid them)and were told if they could end up in C1

This wouldnt have happened by a forced demotion by the way. It would have happened because when Wakefield 1873 ltd (which i think is the holding company name) went in to admin, it would lose its member status, The RFL and other clubs could insist that the new member who took that status didnt take Wakefields place in SL, but started at the bottom of the pro-pyramid as any NEW member would. Because thats what they would be, a NEW member, like BBNL are. Even though in Wakefields case the Owners and Controlling persons would have been the same.

Thats not even a guarantee that Wakefield would have seen that punishment, simply that it was a possibility under those circumstance.

Quite. So, for example, OK never received any guarantee as to what league the Bulls would play in. Indeed the RFL made a big point of saying they would accept no pre-conditions.

Unless you crossed their palms with Sky Money?

But no, not even then. Buy and sign first ... then we'll let you know.

Well, that was the version put out for public consumption, but of course, as we seem to be learning virtually every other day, we don't know what actual deals were concocted in darkened rooms at Rot Hall between various persons and the RFL.
