Forget about Liverpool, Man United, Newcastle and Arsenal. I know United are shite but they were when they bummed us 3-0 as well.
Let's be kind and say 6 points against Burnley and Sheffield United. That gives us 31 points.
That leaves:
Forest H
Brentford H
Bournemouth A
Chelsea A
Luton A
Who knows with points deductions. I think whatever happens, if we beat Burnley and Sheffield United whilst avoiding losing to Forest and Luton then we'll be alright probably.

If we're relegated because of a second points deduction in the same season, for different financial periods, because their process wasn't fast enough and they changed the deadline for submitting accounts on the fly... it'll be a massive scandal. There's no way it can be allowed to happen.

I absolutely long for the day when we never see a post on the forums entitled Relegation.
Bleh. Still think we will stay up but we really don't half need to start winning games.

I think the upcoming 20 days between matches will be good for us.
Get Gana back fit, hopefully Coleman up to speed, McNeil some time off for personal issues, etc. Then back for a very winnable run of games. Very possible to put together a run of 3 wins in 4 or 5 matches to see us to safety.
Would love something vs Man U but I can't remember the last time we beat them. No matter how we or they play they seem to always beat us recently.

That's my hope and belief. They've created noise and criticism for the way they've handled it, as well as calculated the punishment, so I think they'll give us a deduction, suspended until next season. It's an easy way out for them and us.

We've benefited from the first charge not being brought last season when it should have been which would have relegated us, and the second is just the process happening in the correct time frame.
We have got away with it so far tbh, the only reason we will get relegated is because we are shit and can't score goals.
Everything that is happening is down to us.

Regardless you can't be punished twice in one season just because the Premier League didn't have it's house in order last season.
Our problems are our own making, but that doesn't excuse the absolute farce of 2 deductions in one season for different accounting periods. I'm 100% with
@The Doc here.
