That’s very damming and if you’ll forgive me, pretty weak .. so just because a company isn’t a mega Corps means they have no credibility ? .. gosh look at the scandals surrounding many large multi accountancy companies. Tacky post, sorry. So Jaguar or Maclaren arent’t top 5 car manufacturers by turnover or profit … but they have no credibility ?

Depending on where you look, it seems there are well over 30,000 accountancy firms in the UK so, to be ranked in the top 50 (which they are based on fee income) means that, whilst they may not be Deloitte or EY, they are one of the biggest. So, I suggest they do possess a reasonable amount of credibility. 48 hours, jono and kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wondering if I’m wearing my Derby shirt and I see someone looking Greek (and a little deranged) in a Bristol City shirt I should cross the road. Bold of you to assume that fella leaves his house.

24Charlie Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 It's really easy to get annoyed with the EFL but they are charged with the governance of the Football League in line with the rules laid down and agreed upon by member clubs. These rules however are highly restrictive if a club owner wants to speculate. In fact they make it impossible to do so as the main driver of the rules is to get rid of the sugardaddy. If most clubs just want to play on a even playing field where success is governed by the ability of your club to generate the funds to put a good playing squad that can challenge then FFP is fine. I would suggest that we would be happy with that. Clearly the problem is not the EFL but the EPL and those parachute payments. The EPL need the jeopardy of relegation to help sell the business model and as was evidenced by the attempted breakaway super league they will guard that jealously. But parachute payments are more and more allowing the same teams to keep bouncing back which gets quite tedious to the armchair fan who will start to want more variety. This is where EPL2 will gain traction as it will allow a more even playing field with more teams able to challenge for top flight football. Clearly the downside here is that with the formation of EPL2 it will, almost certainly, mean the end of fully professional football in league 1 and two and of course that means the end of the EFL.

Dean (hick) Saunders Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Not sure they have been good for boro particularly. The winners are the “smaller” clubs who get to compete above their natural size by influencing the rules. As there are more of these smaller clubs (all with voting power) it’s not a surprise that rules that suits them result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richinspain Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 6 minutes ago, Philmycock said: Downside, what downside? Not sure if this is tongue in cheek, fishing or serious. Surely any deal, including or not a breakaway, should be looking at the benefit of all clubs, be they Premier League or non-league? What is needed is a structure where any club can climb to the summit or fall into the abyss. Unfortunately what we have at the moment greatly benefits the already wealthy, or those that tempt fate and get lucky. Leaving clubs that try everything (see DCFC) to reach the promised land but fail in trouble with the authorities. There should always be room for clubs to have an owner willing to put his personal wealth in, what is needed is some form of safety net for if he gets bored. As for clubs in the third or lower going out of existence, we were very close to being there last season, ands may well be there in a year's time.

I think most fans would disagree, a few weeks away from the start of the season, no senior cb's and one senior striker coming to the end of their career isn't a good base to build on, and they certainly don't sound like they're in a rush to add to it either Edited July 5, 2021 by Stockyram92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
