Essix Blue Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 The point is, the company didn’t exist because we didn’t sell the ground back in early 2018, did we? DC says we did - well we couldn’t have, cos the buyer didn’t exist back then. that’s the point 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Wolves had the right idea. Build a Premier League team for the Championship and effectively guarantee promotion. You obviously get promotion, and have a ready made side for the top league so don’t have to spend a heap when you get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that but haven't we broke the rules by doing that? The last thing I want is for us to face a points deduction, but I've absolutely no doubt if this situation was faced upon one of our promotion competitors, we as a fan base would be up in arms and saying " serves them right" Taking off my blue and white specs for a minute I am appalled by what's seemingly gone off. Maybe it's my age as I still believe in fair play and not a win at all costs attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point wasn’t the nature of the charge it was whether we’d be hit by a double penalty - one for misconduct one for FFP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I don’t think Chansiri has the money or connections that Wolves had. They had Jorge Mendes, we had the chairman’s advisors.

fife_owl Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Looks like we broke the rules overspending and then got caught trying to cover it up. I can see more than 12 points getting deducted. All we can do is accept it and carry on supporting the team. They are going to need our support after the points have been docked. I am seriously concerned about the competency of our owner. Big heart, deep pockets, loves the club - but is making mistake after mistake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wall Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 55 minutes ago, Essix Blue said: Heard the expert on radio at lunchtime. He said the company that supposedly bought Hillsborough, didn’t even exist when the sale went through. He also said it was 14 months after that that land registry was updated with new owners. Seemed to indicate DC has tried it on and got caught, hence the type of charge we are facing. He also mentioned the value of the ground which seems a little harder to accuse us of ‘over valuing’ Is this ok with HMRC though? I don't know enough about accounting to know whether you can backdate and offset things in these circumstances, but presumably that's what our accountant did. It would be very strange to me if the accounts were accepted as being legit by HMRC, but not the EFL. You would need to run two parallel sets of accounts in that case?

We spend too much time talking about off the field issues since Chansiri has arrived. Ticket prices, late kits, SAG, Radio Sheffield fallout, FFP, transfer embargo’s, Club 1867 and now this.

Its T8ts up on and off the pitch really isn't it? What exactly happens if we get docked enough points to put us outta the promotion equation? I'll tell you what...If we do get docked points ..Delphjon needs to hope its enough points to get us in a relegation fight...Cos the fans won't tip up at these prices with nowt to fight for.. Wedding or a Funeral Owls fans...always has been 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
