Gee SCREAMER !!

This division is that bad this year I could round up 11 random blokes, spray the goalies eyes with mace, put blindfolds on the rest and still get a draw against half the teams.

Undisclosed amount ? You can work out the amount though. Work out how much they’re short to comply with FFP, and that’ll be your answer.

At the very least ban the transferring of players between clubs with the same owner.

At the very least ban the transferring of players between clubs with the same owner. I’m not sure banning it is right, cos there might still be a legit reason why you’d want to do it, you should be able to buy a player from any other club really. But if the clubs are owned by the same owner, the deal should be overseen by some sort of independent body or the EFL. Similar to owners sponsoring their own teams. There are rules around that so their not just paying billions for a sponsorship deal worth thousands to anyone else. The player just needs to be independently valued. At least when Mel bought the stadium, it was independently and fairly valued (as it was subsequently proven by a tribunal), and he didn’t just decide ‘how much does the club need, that’s how much I’m going to value the stadium at’. But that’s a loophole they subsequently closed. they also need to close the loophole on being able to sell your clubs debt to one of your other companies (ahem, looking at you gibbo).

uttoxram75 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 You just know the gumps are gonna get done for the illegal sales between the owners clubs. Maybe they think they'll get promotion before the useless EFL do summatt about it but its a far dodgier thing than anything we've done. I'm sure we'll show them the same compassion they've shown us.

I wouldn't count on it, given there's nothing illegal about what we've done. People in glass houses, I'd save the stone throwing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet five years later you get charged for an interpretation of a rule with no right of appeal especially when the fat controller at the EFL is changed.

Not interested in kicking you while your down, but I think the idea of comparing us to what Mel Morris did for several years, is pretty farcical.

Personally I think the main issue is the size of the debts, which is Mel Morris, however the Mel-efl-gibson egomania factors are a big contribution to the lack of progress. Quantuma are more just generally inadequate than malignant. Red_Dawn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sold too many players (yet, there's still time for EFL pressure though). Have a plan to deal with Boro & Wycombe, again blocked by the EFL. They maybe be Mel's choice but they still have to work within the law and their professional standing. What do you know about them btw?
