Pilgrims to be Hit by Points Deduction

Yeovil's fellow League One strugglers Plymouth Argyle are to be hit by a ten point deduction, as they look certain to enter administration. 

The Pilgrims have been struggling with financial issues all season, and were forced to sell of star assets Bradley Wright-Phillips and Breda Johnson in the January transfer market.

After staving of the dreaded 'A' word for a few months their slip into administration now seems certain with HMRC looking to place a winding up order on the club. 

Tragic as it is, the points loss does the Glovers a favour, as if the ten points are removed from Argyle they will fall to 23rd position, boosting the Green and Whites up one spot to 19th. 

Every little helps...
