ScamRam Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Reading that you would think he was sympathetic to our current plight so is there really an EFL agenda to 'punish' us with these further -9 points? Nice to see he acknowledges parachute payments are a major problem. 60% wages to revenue would be great but unfortunately its players and agents pushing rising wages Crewton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Clough Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Seems like brainstormed ideas and put them all into a proposal. Probably with a view of the PL saying "implementing all is unreasonable, let's reduce it down to just a couple" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elwood P Dowd Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 It doesn’t take a genius to recognise the unfairness in Parachute payments, it does make you wonder if the EFL even considered the problem at all before now!!!

gccrowdpleaser Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I wonder if this stance is a pre cursor to them agreeing to a 'softer' punishment for us. Also his point on cash being the key to administration would stand us in very good stead when it comes to the administration appeal...if we make one. Acknowledgement that cash was the issue and the lack of cash is down to Covid. 48 hours 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The narrative will be that it took a big club to go under to really bring home how importantly reform was needed - and ignore the fact that it is totally in their power to not apply the coup de grace.

angieram Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 To be fair on Parry he has been saying this since he took the job on. I think he's using Derby's circumstances to illustrate it. Rather opportunistic, but to suggest he has orchestrated it all would make him machivellian! 48 hours and Rammy03 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machiavelli seems a cute little kitten compared to some of the actors in this latest scenario! Some things are stranger than fiction. Demonising another who is prepared to write off £100 million pounds and face the opprobrium of others who would not risk the loss of a tiny fraction of their own nett worth is the stuff of fables indeed! At least most on this site are above that sort of thing. Edited September 26, 2021 by Brammie Steve Eatonram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 The Premier League will be absolutely delighted that the Football League are discussing how they can take more of their revenue from them. I learned very early, it's important to be self-serving in business. The Football League discussing how they can take more of the pie, yet I'd imagine many Premier League chairman will be thinking the very same. Getting rid of parachute payments just won't happen. Nor, I'd imagine, will the Premier League accept a deal where they pool revenues. It's a nice idea, but clearly under-estimating the Premier League's compassion OR massively over-stating their hand. It's one or the other. Crewton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acknowledgement that cash was the issue and the lack of cash is down to Covid. I remember during "Spygate", Leeds were given a more lenient punishment in exchange for their agreement to amend the rules to effectively ban what they did I know our situation is a world away from the minor spying transgression but I'm sure 100% we would be happy to do the same. It's basically a guilty plea, accept we did wrong, and agree to measures that will change the rules to stop clubs doing what we did. However given that it was very publicly challenged in court, I doubt our guilty plea would be accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucksRam Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Much as I welcome it, it's kind of ironic he's essentially pooled everything discussed on this forum for what seems like millennia and as such most, if not all of it isn't new. I would therefore wonder what would have to change to actually stand any chance of any of it being implemented? I can't see any PL chairman sitting back, reading this thinking, what a great idea, I'll be more than happy give up £xm of my income. We definitely need change, but I suspect it'll only come by way of a diktat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaffyRam Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 He doesn’t think player amortisation should be part of P&S. So why did he bother to appeal the decision that said we did nothing wrong with our amortisation policy ?? What a bamford. Crewton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
