Eatonram Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Less than a week ago the EFL mentioned constructive talks, clearly something has been submitted, it is hard to imagine the club would ignore the deadline and sanction imposed by the DC after those constructive talks. Neither the Club or EFL are giving any more information which IMO can only mean they have agreed on this position. If the two parties had now gone back to opposing positions the Club would surely issue a statement contradicting the EFL as they have done before. For the time being I can't see how we should assume disaster from what we have heard today. It is just the drawn out nature that is so hard to bear.

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Pure guesswork but is it not possible that we filed the accounts in time for the original deadline but the EFL wanted more clarification so agreed the second deadline to which DCFC have now complied with more information?

Gone Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 What the club should do to communicate whats going on to the fans is hold a question and answer session with fan representatives, so they can then subsequently spread this information to the fan base. This would answer questions such as have the accounts been submitted and put everyone at ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't heard any statements from the club so was querying how they can give out more information when I haven't heard them give any information out at all - unless I've missed something?

MACKWORTHRAM Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 One thing that does worry me is that we all know Mel is doing his very best to get rid of this club (I'm not really sure if he's bothered who too at this stage) He is also quite clearly very reluctant to spend anymore than he needs to. Just the bare minimum to keep the club running day to day. I mean we have no ticket office open, no roadriders for away fans, no mascot (Obviously this doesn't bother me, but my son used to love seeing Rammie and Ewie and I'm sure other kids are the same) So why would Mel want us to have this embargo lifted before the window shuts? And have to fund the wages for up to 8 more players? Carl Sagan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nixon makes a living out of being thought of as clued up about backroom goings on in football. No incentive whatsoever to say 'I don't know'. At least half the time, he just doesn't have a clue. This one included, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the theory I am holding onto. Constructive talks suggested we were working with the EFL to get our accounts submitted. I suspect the EFL asked us for something extra and gave us a deadline, which we have met. Now we wait. Remember, the longer the EFL string this along the more likely we go down and the EFL get their wish anyway. r_wilcockson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the additional info we have provided to the ego in lieu of the accounts that's going to be intriguing,along with the efls response to it all.
