OohMartWright Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Keep calm. The EFL have already signed off on our stadium sale so I would be astonished if they now came out and accused the Club, Mel, the auditors and THEMSELVES of doing something improper.

Woodley Ram Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 This will be interesting, if they have already approved it and then charge us then I can see an almighty legal battle ahead..... and get this EFL .... in Mel we trust and Mel will win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were given all the facts and concluded it was OK. To come back again and change that view would just make them look like Gibson's lackeys.

Bubbles Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 So the EFL have got 2 options here. Charge us and make an even worse name for themself as they have already signed off our stadium sale - After everything over the past couple of months they are pretty hated. They would then most likely be sued by us, meaning they will lose more money. Or they can let us get on with it as what we did was within the rules, and only have to worry about mardy steve gibson. I wonder... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammy Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Charged for allegedly putting it in a different financial year than the one they sold it in. Not something us, Reading, or Villa did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

therealhantsram Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 If they do, well, it'll rumble on for years probably. Much like the QPR thing took about 5 years to agree a settlement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UTFR Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 IIRC there was an irregularity with the dates for Sheff Wednesdays? Their stadium sale actually happening in the 18/19 season, but they included the profit in the 17/18 accounts or something like that. May be the basis of the charge.

Bubbles Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 https://www.swfc.co.uk/news/2019/november/club-statement/ Lads seeing as theres gonna be a war between the EFL and Sheff Weds, reckon we could buy back the stadium for a quid and no one will notice?,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Leeds and Forest fans all over Twitter right now frothing at the mouth "what about Derby", not understanding that selling stadiums is/was allowed under EFL rules. Clearly the EFL are not happy with how Sheffield Wednesday processed the sale, and not this must mean Derby and Villa are also screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JfR Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Birmingham in trouble last year, and Sheffield Wednesday this. I'm starting to think that Garry Monk might be cursed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
