Interesting to see the report of the EFL meeting you were trying to raise a scare about. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCG Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 14 hours ago, BaaLocks said: Don't worry, you are in good company. Know who said this? 'They came from Birmingham, which is not a place to promise much, you know, Mr Weston. One has no great hopes of Birmingham. I always say there is something direful in the sound." Jane Austen (or one of her characters in one of those book things she did). If anyone wants to get into the spirit of defending Birmingham I admire you but it will be a lifelong obsession. I think you missed the point Austen was making. She lampooned the society she was from for its stupidity and snobbishness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 So basically Steve Gibson accuses us of having financial irregularities, we say we don’t and even offer to PROVE to him that we do comply and he just declines our offer? Seems to me he’s just kicking up a fuss for the sake of it, surely there has to be something legal we can do against him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal is a Ram Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Quote Morris told DerbyhireLive: "Middlesbrough were offered by us in writing to come with their advisors to go through our submissions for profitability and sustainability, they declined." https://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/mel-morris-reveals-derby-countys-2796253?0 Straight from t'hosses mouth.

Comrade 86 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Said in an earlier post that I've lost all respect for Gibson. This just reinforces that sense. Keeping Boro out of the playoff slots would be such sweet 'revenge' for his shameless and empty accusations. For him to propose that he be able to view rival clubs' accounts and then decline to offer from DCFC whom he's accused of effectively cheating the system, just shows him up for what he really is, all mouth and no trousers.
