Sparkle got a reaction from LeedsCityRam in Embargo.
I wish that MM would actually ride this out and continue to fund the club, pay outstanding bills, challenge the EFL if they charge us again if we haven’t done anything wrong legally, maintain the low cost base but also fund extras needed
we wouldn’t be embargoed if that was the case, which would enable us to improve the squad sensibly
In turn we would again be a decent sellable club for hopefully a decent new owner because we currently have no idea who wants to buy us currently and what that would mean in the future.

None of the decisions made by the EFL have made sense to supporters of other clubs - usually because the full details are never released. - basically you should only ever be penalised if the written rules are broken and the punishments are fully known beforehand and are non negotiable- penalising clubs over grey areas is simply not right it’s vindictive and open to Abuse by a hidden agenda.

Sparkle reacted to Van der MoodHoover in Embargo.
The EFL on Quest programme said that we were close to agreeing a sanction under regulation 85.
This is just the procedural regulation, but it states that..
- the EFL have to propose the sanction in writing with reasons
- we have 14 days to accept or go to a disciplinary panel
- if we don't respond then we default to a panel.
All these "negotiations" are outside of the regulations. Details can become public only when we reach the written letter stage.
So imo we're still in baseless speculation territory.

Sparkle got a reaction from jimtastic56 in How many more points required?
60 points needed but that requires a goal scorer or serious improvement from midfield in terms of goals
the one bonus this season is that I think there are about 16 teams who are equally poor with little money to spend so they will all be taking points of each other probably - is that good or bad ? - so long as we collect points it’s ok

Sparkle reacted to Ambitious in Embargo.
9 points kills us. I’m going to see what the accounts fall out at, because the way I’ve read it - we are still being punished for amortisation and we have to restate the accounts.
A 9 (+3) point deduction, IF our accounts prove to within P&S, is absolute baalocks. If we’ve broken P&S then just take the point deduction. We have supposedly republished our accounts, it would be nice to see what the result is… I really don’t care at this point. I just want to see the numbers.

What is the PFA doing about this? It's a totally absurd state of affairs having a massive detrimental affect on its members.

Sparkle got a reaction from Tamworthram in WBA Away
We are playing to avoid relegation this season nothing else especially when we can’t sign any forwards so every point gained is a point won in that quest - without the supporters and our two hugely experienced centre half’s we would fold with so many youngsters playing regularly but those two centre half’s are a total inspiration to all who play and watch from our point of view.

Sparkle got a reaction from 48 hours in Ali Al Hamadi
But we do break the rules or maybe bend them a little and who is to say you can’t use ten boxes of scrabble to play a game ?

Sparkle reacted to Day in On the Inside with Wayne Rooney
I didn't see it advertised anywhere as a documentary.
Everyone moans that we're always the centre of negative press, yet here we are with one of the games modern greats nipping into Moor Farm, speaking positively about the work Rooney is doing and look at the reaction.
And why does the win stat over this year and last season need to be churned out day after day, last season is gone, it's over.
This season it's clear to see performances have improved and we're sat higher in the table than clubs with far more experienced managers and squads at their disposal.
When's the guy gonna be given a break? Maybe there is a positive atmosphere behind the scenes, which is great to hear, can we not just enjoy a bit of positivity amongst all the daily doom gloom.

Sparkle reacted to Embarrassed Blade in Sheffield United tickets
Afternoon all , just wanted to apologise for the ridiculous ticket prices at Bramall Lane this season. It’s £40 for us in a couple of stands for this game. Be interesting to see how many you bring cos I wouldn’t pay it.

on set pieces and throw ins WBA pile loads into the box so leave the two forwards on the half way line and split so to make more room for us to actually defend with some space in our box as WBA will need at least 3 back to cover them especially if our forwards are wide enough and it gives Roos some options to get it forward.
