i-Ram

As @GenBralso said above, it seems perfectly reasonable to me. Forget profit and sustainability and amortisation calculations, they are no longer the story here. The Club clearly owes significant debt, and whilst Morris does seem to be paying the wages it equally seems clear that he isn’t prepared to immediately settle long standing debts - to HMRC, Cocu and his team, etc.  Then there is MSD, and I wonder how much is owing to smaller local creditors who supply the club with services. We don’t know, because he won’t tell us nor apparently offer any guarantees to the EFL for the next 12 months. As @kevinhectoringsays there is also a legal obligation in terms of the audited accounts that are being prepared that the owners must - if liabilities exceed assets - give some tangible assurance to the Auditor that the Club can comply with Companies Act requirements as to continuing to trade and pay debts as they fall due.

Old news. Down to less than £50 per night now.

A bit controversial but, in this instance (just this one) are the EFL really being that unreasonable? Derby seem to be deep in debt, haven’t submitted annual accounts for a few years and are potentially in breach of P&S rules. It doesn’t seem unreasonable to insist on the accounts being submitted, any penalties accepted and some kind of evidence that the club can continue to pay its way before allowing further signings. (Tin hat on).

If we haven’t breached (which would be a great outcome for us) it will mean we’ve had to endure 2 years of absolute dross for nothing. The club has been pushed to the brink of oblivion because of an accountancy method. I’ve never been more disinterested with football than I am now, some clubs signing players for £100m+, players earning £50m a year yet all we want is a couple more frees to bolster our threadbare squad, football is dead.

There were reports a while back that they would allow us to sign a few more players if Mel could prove he had the funds to keep us going for the season. It doesn't seem like he wants to or is even able to.
I say it with a bitter taste in my mouth, but in this instance the EFL are actually protecting one of their member clubs for a change. They are stopping us adding more people on to a wage bill we already can't afford until our glorious leader can prove he will actually honour his obligations before he pushes us even further down poo creek.

Poor poor performance, but Rooney let down by his senior back four and a Polish International in the last 11 minutes. Another game where we carried Lawrence.

I agree. Time for protest. White Knees Matter.

He hasn’t been that good.

Wazza is not going to walk away from £50,000 a week , doing a job he has no qualifications for . With the likes of Roy Mac and Eric Steele constantly covering for him because he is a “Celebrity”.  Crikey me we could have got Katie Price for £2k a week!

Anyone pick up Rooney’s comment after match on the embargo and potential to get someone in to replace Kazim, I heard on Sky he said “Im not asking for any favours” but then reading the Steve Nicholson article he also said “that is where we have allowed ourselves to get and that is what we are stuck with”. Interesting comment  and seems to me the siege mentality he seems to be trying to foster does not include the club ownership…
 

We are stuck with him. We can’t afford to get rid as the pay off would be huge. We can’t really afford to keep him as he has major flaws as a coach. I firmly believe he is blagging it now, I have no idea what style we have bar boring. I’m all for boring if we win but wtf.. Did someone say 8pts from 51 !!!
We are in a bad place right now.. I really can’t see any positives in any aspect of the club bar the fans at the moment. Hats off to those who went today, you did all you can do. That starting 11 should be winning games but there is a big gap to what we have on the bench. Any injuries are just going to kill us.. 
To be fair, we knew this was coming and we are going to take some big defeats this season I fear. No choice but to stick with the guys wearing the shirt.. I’m not going to weigh in Byrne and Joz, they made mistakes.. We will need them at various parts of the season and we need their experience to hopefully rub off onto the kids. Losing 1-2 at Peterborough is bad but hang onto your hats ladies and gents, it could well get worse before it gets better.

Anything suggesting another long pointless discussion of accounts, accounting policies or estimates of our losses. We dont know anything end of. 
 

For me it’s anything with the words
PLEASE
DON’T
BLAME
MORRIS 
AND
PEARCE
Pretty much ok with everything else.

Just for the record, us half fans get mocked but if it wasn’t for us sitting in our armchairs keeping our charts and spreadsheets going, the Ram’s recent form would not be accurately reported on here. It’s alright standing on the terraces, singing your songs about Collymore and doing that bounce thing, but coming on here claiming no wins in 18 league games, and 1 win in 18 league games, is greatly irresponsible and likely to cause unnecessary concern regarding our current run of form.

Pretty woeful first half summed up neatly by Lawrence’s free kick just before half time. Come on West Brom get your cheque book out.
