Runaway Championship leader Burnley are being investigated by the Football League and could even be slapped with a points deduction after fielding a weakened team in last weekend's draw against Reading.
The Clarets have been head and shoulders above everybody else in the league this season and have already sealed an instant return to the Premier League after clinching promotion in style earlier this month.
However, Vincent Kompany's side have now failed to win any of their last three games following Saturday's shock 2-1 defeat against lowly Queens Park Rangers : a result which delayed Burnley's title coronation for another week.
