Probably the most depressing of all? I'm a lifer. If you're going into a direct insurance writer then there's opportunities to go into wider fields such as investing or risk management. Don't get stuck in a capital modelling function. It's useful grounding for a couple of years but you'll soon realise what a futile exercise all the number crunching is. Good luck.

One of the partners where I worked years ago used to have a huge list of jokes comparing accountants to supermarket trolleys but luckily for the forum I was always too drunk when hearing them to remember them now Can you not even remember a Lidl bit of the jokes he used to tell? I'm actuary very disappointed in you. i-Ram, CBRammette and Curtains 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BriggRam Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) I don't understand all the legal issues, all I see is that it all came to a head when we as a club was on its knees with no chance of fighting them.....the EFL and Gobson knew this, and for that i will never forgive them Edited February 16, 2022 by BriggRam CBRammette, kevinhectoring, jono and 4 others 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only requires utmost good faith re FFP matters. So blackmailing another club would not be caught! Anyway I think it would take extraordinary circumstances for EFl to take action under 4.4 The Rick Parry response to i-ram’s question on 4.4 was gibberish Has caused endless confusion on here Extraordinary circumstances , could never happen that EFL could take action under the utmost good faith requirement and it only applies to FFP matters? how soon you forget spygate. Leeds got fined £200k for that breach under that rule. https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/football/2019/feb/18/leeds-united-fined-200000-derby-spying I would hope Efl could knock dodgy claims from clubs like Boro and Wycombe on similar grounds. Employing dirty tactics against another clubs is just not on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PdP, I stand by every word of my post though you have misquoted me a little There may be other grounds on which EFL could or should have reacted to Boro’s conduct. Problem is, you and I have little doubt that Gibbo’s motives were malevolent. But his response to the EFL would simply be: “ look, here’s a legal opinion from rent a silk confirming we have a basis for a claim. My club is entitled to enforce its legal rights “ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really do not want to play nerd tennis here, self confessed nerd though I am. I just don't like the idea of clubs suing each other like this. Even the Courts have a way of filtering out speculative claims .. they can award costs against a chancer like Gibson, so actually using the EFL's arbitration process actually encourages dodgy actions as it's cheaper and easier. EFL processes should be discouraging "football family" claims if at all possible. It has been very stressful for us Rams fans and if it ever became prevalent it really would ruin the game of football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Leeds fine was for breeching rule 3.4, not 4.4: 4.4 is specifically about good faith regarding FFP/accounting submissions. 3.4 is a more general good faith requirement for all interactions between clubs and the league, (relating to league matters anyway).
