Abu Derby Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 It’s the parachute payments that should be looked at, never mind FFP. They ought to be reduced in order to permit a more level playing field. These payments are to help relegated clubs transition into the Championship. Instead they are being used recklessly to try and buy their way back up. Stoke City is a prime example. It’s nobody’s fault but their own if this strategy fails.

The disclosure will have to mirror the treatment of the creditor in the stadium company accounts. If there is no fixed date for repayment for the creditor it would have to be shown as due within one year and therefore that would be reflected in the club accounts. Must point out that I am categorically not saying the money has not been paid to the club but there is no evidence to the contrary. Interesting that you say the paperwork was back dated. If that's true then I can understand why people think we have cheated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's true then I can understand why people think we have cheated. That was incorrect for me to say that. I should have said that the paper work could have been back dated but not the payment. As you say, we'll have to wait until next year before finding out if the money has been transferred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ram59 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 As I've said, ffp is flawed, some would say we appear to got round it, but in a different way to other teams. Take Watford and wolves who both got promoted with players from Italian and Portuguese teams linked with the ownership of their clubs. In our case, have we paid the going rate for Tomori and Mount, because of the FL factor? We see from the amount of tax that multi nationals pay or don't pay, that there are ways round most things in business, it's just a matter of being clever enough to find them.

Isn't he just going to draw attention to his own dealings? Middlesbrough surely haven't survived on their gate receipts. He did. Sadly, the independent valuation of the riverside came back with 2 groats and a reheated chicken parmo. Assombalonga pissed himself laughing and the riverside profits had to be spent on his dry cleaning ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they offer nothing to spectacle of the premier league, the owners are just happy to skim off as much as they can for minimal outlay. Boro would definitely join that list if they got promoted. Does any fan of football really want to watch boro on sky sports each week in the prem, aiming for 17th place each season. Boro can balls. Utter rubbish that from Talksport.

Many of the high earners will be off the books this summer, hopefully to be replaced by players on more modest wages. As a result of the sale of the ground, the club actually has cash in the bank. Yes, we don't own the ground, but neither does Brighton, Bournemouth and West Ham, just to name a few. Unlike those, our ground is still owned by someone who has the club at heart and is helping to restrict costs. Huh?! Our chairman paid for the ground, we don't rent it off anyone.
