Van der MoodHoover Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 10 hours ago, G STAR RAM said: We also gain an advantage by selling our tickets for higher prices than other clubs and the sponsorship deals. The club are correct that we have gained no advantage as the amortisation will just appear in another years accounts, the total amortisation however will be the same. If someone could describe accurately what the "advantage" was that we have gained I'd be very grateful. To me, it seems nothing more than a very temporary deferral of higher initial expenditure on player transfer fees. Any such "advantage" only lasted for half an Anya by my estimation... ?

IIRC Gibson’s argument was that we had used our extra financial headroom to outbid them on buying Waghorn. And apparently having Waghorn, for reasons that science can not yet explain, gave us an advantage ?♂️.

The irony of course is that they already had a centre forward on their books that they had signed for £15m the season before!

If the restated accounts don't comply, which I'm sure is very simple to calculate, then they should charge us with breaching P&S rules. So the old ones don’t comply Edited September 9, 2021 by Spanish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put in a transfer request 5 months in when Monk got sacked, went away on loan and put in another transfer request as soon as he returned, despite loving a Parmo! Around the same time, Luke de Jong was on loan up the road at Newcastle, failing to score a single goal in his loan spell. That's now Barca's front two!

If our accounts were acceptable to EFL, assuming HMRC is sorted, we would not be under embargo !! Your second point is an interesting one. Mel thinks that with the youngsters starting to shine, we don’t need to recruit heavily. So Rooney would say: you should have caved and agreed a points deduction before the window closed. And Mel would think: baalocks, you’ve got enough for now in the squad and in due course you can bring in some free agents Btw personally I don’t think Mel is a great poker player. He’s too emotional I bet he's good at Monopoly. RadioactiveWaste and kevinhectoring 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
