SaffyRam Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 According to the Mail, six clubs are preparing a legal bid against the EFL over their refusal to significantly change P&S restrictions after the impact of covid. What a mess. strawhillram, Derby4Me, Ramarena and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently so. The replays haven't been especially enlightening, the EFL has done nothing wrang, of course they want dcfc to survive, everything EFL does is in line with policy. So just EFL party line with occasional changes in wording. Tombo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd need either quick promotion or ongoing funding. I think our revenue will hold up in League One.. the fans aren't going anywhere. There's 15 players out of contract in the summer so wages will be well down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a mess. Let me guess. Just a wild guess. One of those clubs couldnt possibly be Boro could it? I for one am shocked and appalled. Maybe it will make the EFL help us now they are in the same firing line, but i doubt it. PistoldPete and r_wilcockson 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our costs will hopefully decrease to suit our new level, but there will definitely be a big impact on our income. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a mess. Has EFL fed lines to John Percy of the Telegraph that they are "shocked" that clubs are using COVID as an excuse for their financial troubles? And deducted them 12 points anyway?

Oh yes from pre COVID days (and this years revenue and cash flow is still massively impacted by COVID) our revenue was £30 million but still less than our player wage bill. Now our wage bill is heading towards £10m and will drop sharply again in the summer if not before. SO even if revenue is say £15 m we should still make a profit.

Actually, to a certain extent I do.I don’t think it’s 100% their fault, but if they’ve chosen to ignore the claims, then they have missed a trick. Yes the claims may be nonsense to anyone who can see, but surely they should have made some efforts to address or discuss with the EFL / boro / Wycombe. if they haven’t, and have just ignored them, then I do think some of the blame sits with them David Graham Brown and r_wilcockson 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBRammette Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Someone mentioned at some point the effect on the credibility of the championship as a competition if we are booted out on 1 February. The wonderful irony of this would be if Boro with their strengthened squad and new manager for the second half of the season ready for a promotion push somehow lose out on promotion because of the effect of it or,even better, claims are brought by other clubs because his actions derailing their promotion pushes. If someone misses play offs by a point or a goal even due to their results against us being removed how could he say they dont have a claim against Boro for £45m. This somehow needs to be stressed to the EFL/Boro fans. Ramarena, David Graham Brown and Crewton 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
