The irony, of course, is that season in question: Derby had 9th highest wage bill in the Championship (£40m) and Middlesbrough had the 4th highest wage bill in the Championship with £49m. Yet, it claims that we made it impossible for other teams to compete fairly? Aston Villa had a wage bill of £83m that same season, double ours. It's an outrageous claim.

IslandExile Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 I'm certainly not an optimist but I'm not a pessimist either; middle of the road realist, that's me. I'm now fearing that liquidation is a very real possibility. 12 point deduction and a January fire sale, will condemn us to League One next season. FFP points deduction of 9+3 points, probably applied next season. There's also the possibility of 15 points if non-football creditors aren't paid 25%. That will send us down to League Two. As the Wycombe chairman (spit) says: who is going to want to buy a League Two club with £50mill debt? (and no ground, no academy). I've been thinking for a long time that it is going to take the demise of a big club to shake up the football world and bring in some professional governing bodies.

We only have 8 players contracted to the club past this season as it is. I obviously can see the requirement to sell players, but as it's the middle of the season and there isn't bosman players knocking about - what on earth do we actually do? Sell the players, put the under 18s in? I know Bolton had to play a lot of kids during their relegation season, but they still had a much deeper team than we currently do, especially if we start selling the very few players we have. I guess it doesn't matter too much, considering the issues at the club. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-Ram Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Was administration really necessary? Mel blaming covid but we are pretty much out of covid. We're getting fans back in the ground, our wage bill with the players that have left and the max £4.5k PW for new players must mean our wage bill is at the lowest i years Surely money coming to money going out looks a lot better If HMRC & others are calling in debts then surely he has enough money (if he cared) to do a directors loan to the club at zero interest & pay off all debts & loans which would put us in a better position than paying interest He literally doesn't care.

Well, even though there's been an improvement in both results and performances over last season, further improvement will be required to overtake three other teams. A fire sale in January will scupper that idea altogether. There's also the question of additional points deductions. I would not put it past the EFL to delay those until next season if it looks like we're certain for the drop anyway this season. EFL fighting to protect football and football clubs. Yeah right.

Bury, Bolton, Wigan, now Derby. Shame on them. Well we've managed an average of 1.25 points per game so far (should have been more with the Peterborough & Forest games ) so that's on course for 57 or 58 points for the season. Take 12 off that & it might just be enough. We survived with 44 points last season Jason Knight is fit again & if we can get & keep Bielik & CKR, who knows Of course any further punishment or fire sale & we're ducked Edited September 22, 2021 by SamUltraRam IslandExile and r_wilcockson 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curb Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 For anyone thinking about whether it would be possible to form a ‘Phoenix’ club, Bury AFC formed last season, but the season got suspended due to COVID. This season, After 10 games they are second in the North West Counties League First Division North, which is at level 10 in the football pyramid. These are the current non-league clubs in Derbyshire, level 10 would be around the level of Heanor and Borrowash Vics. It would be good fun for a bit, but they wouldn’t see league football in my lifetime. Level 5 Chesterfield National League Level 6 Alfreton Town National League North Level 7 Buxton NPL (Northern Premier League) Premier Division Matlock Town NPL Premier Division Mickleover FC NPL Premier Division Level 8 Belper Town NPL Division One East Glossop North End NPL Division One Gresley NPL Division One East Level 9 Ilkeston Town MFL (Midland Football League) Premier Division Long Eaton United MFL Premier Division South Normanton Athletic MFL Premier Division Staveley Miners Welfare NCEL (Northern Counties East League) Premier Division Level 10 Belper United EMCL (East Midlands Counties League) FC Bolsover NCEL (Northern Counties East League) Division One Borrowash Victoria EMCL Dronfield Town NCEL Division One Graham Street Prims EMCL Heanor Town EMCL New Mills NWCL (North West Counties League) Division One South Shirebrook Town NCEL Division One Red Ram, EtoileSportiveDeDerby, ariotofmyown and 2 others 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
