If we get the EFL compensation quickly we can spunk our load on some new strikers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shezzas left peg Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 (edited) Good to see us standing up for ourselves if of course we've a solid and well defined defence prepared. I was reading owlstalk when I got back from work, feet up, brew in hand and it suddenly occurred to me, maybe this is all STEVE BLOODY GIBSONS FAULT!!! The EFL needed a scapegoat to placate stevie's tantrums. Deby and reading seem pretty clued up on the FFP nonsense and pre prepared and planned well in advance. So obviously, we were the one that they decided would be the easy scapegoat. DC has proven a bit Frank spensor at times and as we know being rather nieve in the workings of football since he's been here. I know every one hates us from "a certain semi final incident" and we're the easy target, so we screw Wednesday and shut crybaby Steve up from whining at us.

Inspector Lestrade Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 3 minutes ago, areNOTwhatTHEYseem said: You don't release a statement like that just to keep the fans and staff happy. This is serious fighting talk that's been drafted by a lawyer. Would have preferred better paragraph setting. I do like to see nice paragraph setting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lawyer will have gone through it with a fine tooth comb. To deny it is one thing but to counter act it and commence legal proceedings against the EFL is something else. About time someone took this lot on they are an absolutely pointless waste of an organisation. Club produce accounts EFL accept and sign them off. Gibson throws toys out of his pram EFL think oh flip we'd better be seen to be doing something we'll put the frighteners on them. Chansiri says bring it on. The reaction of EFL yet to be seen but again could be oh flip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatter Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 21 minutes ago, agentwalker said: The positive thing about all this is that it's going to drag on and either way the EFL won't dare give us a points deduction until it's sorted either way. Go out and get promoted then effectively have a slagging match with the big bully from the other side of the river where they can't touch us. Didn’t the QPR case take over 2 years to come to a conclusion. During such a long period of time it would be difficult for the EFL to instigate sanctions without prejudicing their case. A word of caution though QPR’s extremely wealthy owner pushed it all the way to appeal but still lost. Think this will have to be fully examined in court because if the club statement is correct in every detail it sounds like entrapment by EFL.

We've done nothing wrong, unless proved otherwise at a yet to be arranged independent hearing, which I suspect we will appeal if necessary. We should carry on with our business to make improvements to the squad as we think fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way is S6 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 So, to summarise; don't tell us we can do the stadium sale, agree to the stadium sale & then bring charges against us for the stadium sale. What a set of incompetent bell ends the EFL are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAWAWUTO17 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 To me it sounds like someone at the EFL gave Wednesday the go ahead. Then a certain from a club got wind of it and has been moaning ever since. Therefore making EFL look into it further. I personally think the EFL has opened a can of worms on themselves. There's no way Chansiri would take the risk he has done without the correct legal and accountancy advice. The date of the stadium sale to the date it being registered on the land registry could be totally legit as these things can take time hence causing the delay in the accounts being published. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonofbert2 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 (edited) Depends on when the contract was done, what it said and if EFL sanctioned it. Edited December 4, 2019 by sonofbert2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
