I dont know where to find it either and CBA , but I think it's there in the process. kevinhectoring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Durden Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 34 minutes ago, duncanjwitham said: It does seem a more sensible option though. The entire case came down to whether Professor Pope was a reliable witness, and the LAP made their decision entirely on the basis of what the DC wrote in their report, they never even got to speak to him themselves. Although there are obviously significant time and cost reasons to not want a brand new DC. Professor Pope saw the deed done in the Library by Colonel Mustard with the dagger.

And if we were broke FFP before January 2020 why didn't EFL charge us for breach of 2018-19? Because we didn’t put any accounts in. 2018/19 accounts were Mel’s smoking gun.

JfR Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I don't think Professor Pope should be trusted. He falsely claims to be a pope, so how can we believe that he's telling the truth about being a professor? RadioactiveWaste 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PistoldPete Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 12 minutes ago, duncanjwitham said: Bear in mind that those losses are all rolling 3 year losses, so the actual losses are only a third of what’s quoted there. The total FFP overspend is about £33m (although it could be higher depending on how those listed figures deal with ‘resetting’ losses in previous seasons). I think that overspend falls into the season we sold the stadium, so it would have been interesting to see if we could have used the reserve valuation thingy at that point - I’m probably mangling this, but we basically ‘stored’ some of the profit from the sale of the stadium for future use, but if we knew where we were on FFP terms we may not have done that at all. All it takes is using that, and maybe some other action like not signing Bielik, and we’re not that far off hitting the target. I don't really get the reserve thing but yes I sort of thought we were selling the stadium to cover future expected losses, so held some profit back as a reserve. Not sure why we couldn't do that. If we had known the losses were in the past due to the amortsiation thing then we could have maybe allowed for the profit in full anyway. In which case the EFL's retrospective action has caused an even bigger mess to our accounts than i thought. RoyMac5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JfR Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Anyway, there's no point complaining about the decision. What's done is done, and the deduction can't be changed, now. Instead, let's all put our curly wigs on and compile a list of all the other clubs that we suspect have broken the rules to try and drag some down below us. It's our only real chance at staying up, now! Let's start with Middlesbrough, who wrongly claim to be a "Boro", despite only containing one of the required "Os" in their name.

Red Ram Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 2 hours ago, G STAR RAM said: Well I am guessing that the auditors and ICAEW must have seen some documentation and concluded that it gave a true and fair view. Id like to see a sample of Championship players sold over the last 10 years and see how their sale value compares to their NRV using straight line amortisation method. According to Kieran Maquire, amortisation isn't mean to reflect residual value so I'm not sure it would be all that relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
