Gringo Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 EFL regulation 24 covers the fielding of a weakened team in a championship league game see below, Regulation 24 The Requirement to Play Full Strength Sides in League Matches 24.1 Each Club shall play its full strength in all Matches played under the auspices of The League unless some satisfactory reason is given. In the event of the explanation not being deemed satisfactory the Board shall refer the matter to a Disciplinary Commission which has the power to impose such penalties as it shall think fit. My preposition is that if the EFL forces DCFC by means of this Embargo, to knowingly have the Rams field a weakened side at the start of the season, then they will be guilty of breaking their own regulations, and to my mind if we some months later we were able to strengthen the team, and go on a good set of results, we could seriously affect both relegation and promotion in the league. My view is that given we only currently have without any additional players a team that will find it very difficult to get results, then the EFL is playing with fire, and for once maybe it could be Mr Gibsons team that could be adversely affected. I am going to write to the EFL to point out they will transgress their own regulations if they do not see sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuffolkRam Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 It won’t be a weakened team in the sense that all our best players are not playing. It will be the strongest team that we can put out, our best players on the pitch. it will be a weak team, not a weakened team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But "full strength" surely refers to playing the best players we have available... here at the club... registered to us... or at the very least, loaned to us. The better players you refer to are currently registered to other teams, so we can't possibly play them. Effectively, they don't exist, and cannot therefore be chosen to play for us. If you write to The EFL on this, they will point and laugh at you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gritstone Ram Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I assume it relates to who you have signed on and who is on the bench and who is in the field of play. It’s obvious some teams are weaker than others in the championship that’s why it’s so geared up for the teams coming down from the Premier League to ensure they ge back up.

CBRammette Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I am not sure this reg is in point but I do think if they dont sort before start of season the integrity of the league is in doubt. Say Huddersfield play us on first day and win 8-0 as no CBs. We play Boro couple of weeks later (its just an example havent looked at fixtures) with CBs and draw 1-1. Huddersfield get automatic promotion finishing 2nd, one point ahead of Boro who lose in playoffs again. What will Gibson be saying/doing/threatening then, especially if he is one of hostiles Nixon refers to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Unfortunately as others have pointed out,your interpretation is out....we will be fielding our strongest team,as that is all we have...unsigned players in any form including potential loans are not our players and not part of our strength. It really does look as though we are likely to not start out first match with any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair dinkum and glad they are doing their job effectively When you put it like that, if we don’t pay the taxman there’s little point whining about everything else. On a positive note the team that ended the game on Wednesday looked fit, hungry and seemed to have a real togetherness. COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one isn’t regardless of the EFL’s actions .. we will be fielding our strongest team from the resources we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair dinkum and glad they are doing their job effectively In dispute about what? I'm pretty sure I read that the amount relates to PAYE, which I think ties in with what was being said about how much MM was putting in to fund the payroll. Not seen anything mentioned regarding a dispute with HMRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minesahartington Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Actually there may be some merit in this.. if he doesn’t pick Sibbo then he is guilty of fielding a weakened team. Not sure that down to the EFL though, just Wazzer “owngoaling” again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
