Looking this up it does appear to have similarities, especially with the amount Sheffield United claimed against West Ham. https://www.heraldscotland.com/sport/uk-sport/19289469.day-2007-west-ham-accept-fine-tevez-mascherano-deal/ "West Ham and Sheffield United eventually reached an out-of-court settlement to end their dispute in March 2009. The Blades initially valued their claim at £45million but the actual figure agreed was reported to be around £20million, with payments spread over a five-year period." derby8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely different situation to ours - Gibson's claim has no basis in reality. As someone has already suggested, the only claim he could have any chance with is that we prevented them from from getting into 6th place - that may have cost them a very small amount of prize money and gate receipts for the play-off semi. Anything beyond that is pure guesswork and assumption on Gibson's part.... lrm14, Arsene Titman, Crewton and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And here’s the kicker, if the EFL even contemplate this they are opening a huge can of worms. Any team that feels aggrieved by any decision or action could sue on the precedent of this decision. Just off the top of my head we could hit Villa, QPR and maybe even Ipswich for damages. Other clubs could do the same across the leagues. Where would it end? If this goes ahead then we should fully advocate our new owners suing the above.

strawhillram Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 He’s a chancer. Trying to make a fast Buck on the back of our current problems. He puts in a huge claim of £45m in the hope that someone somehow somewhere agrees a settlement or delays/prevents our takeover He’s bringing the whole game and the EFL into disrepute. His life must be more miserable than we thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anon Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I wonder if he'll try and sue us for Emil Riis Jacobsen scoring the winner against his shitty team on Tuesday? He might as well. It would make about as much sense as his current claims. r_wilcockson and RadioactiveWaste 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crewton Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 There's a long established principle of not commenting on legal disputes once they're "live", so don't expect anything from the Administrators until they're settled. They can't possibly know if they will hold up the finalisation of a sale until the preferred bidder makes their position clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Well it would be interesting in court when we explain what we did, in that it was legal and accepted and within the actual rules at the time. The fact that the administrators have now accepted a points deduction does not say that we broke the actual rules - see you in court Middlesbrough FC - in terms of Wycombe what a bunch of opportunistic hypocrites - maybe Peterborough should be seeing them as they were in sixth place when Wycombe got promoted from eighth place!
