Musn't Grumble Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 If we win this, do we get extra points instead of getting points docked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we win this, they’ll probably just give FF another 6 game ban cos they’ll have face on. But seriously, if we win this we’re definitely due some compensation! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should know the ultimate cost of this from the 90s which is why people of my generation have never seen us play in the Premiership. The most sensible comment in this thread.

Don’t know how some have the front to call themselves fans, when all they do is criticise. Why not back the club for once !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animis Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 The irony with the EFL, is nicely summed up on their web page at present, in their open armed welcome to Wayne Rooney, saying he'll be an 'Asset' to the championship. This is Wayne Rooney, who's base salary is reported to be £50k/week, albeit being reportedly subsidised by Red32 sponsorship, to 'soften' the blow to Derby's P&L. This is Derby, who's owner has just sold Pride Park to, yes you've guessed it, himself for £80m to, guess what, avoid FFP/P&S breaches. Hypocrisy of the highest order. https://www.efl.com/news/2019/december/sensational-rooney-will-be-an-asset-to-the-championship/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlsAustralia Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 (edited) Lawyers will be the big winners as always is the case. Good on the Chairman for standing up for the club and himself. We shall see how deep his pockets are now and how good a case the EFL really do have? Without knowing the intricate details I get the feeling the EFL feel they can just roll over the top of clubs, but might have met their match here. I think the majority can agree that DC has only every tried to do the right thing for the club - he may have been naive and often taken the wrong route but he only wants the best and he deserves our support. BTW if we drag this through the courts for months and get promoted what happens then ? Edited December 4, 2019 by OwlsAustralia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion he has come in with the intentions of getting our club into the premier league and will do all he can to achieve this. Mistakes are made by every chairman and P&S will affect majority of clubs in the next couple of years. Will that make those chairman incompetent and irresponsible? All boils down to the EFL rules not being fit for purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 So it appears the battle lines are drawn. We argue that the EFL were fully aware of and approved the sale of Hillsborough including the sale price? The EFL suggest they've seen new evidence which now means they wouldn't have approved the sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All boils down to the EFL rules not being fit for purpose. We have had previous warnings that have been ignored and this has been coming for a while now. You call it good intentions I call it sheer incompetence and irresponsible ownership. The EFL will decide which it is but the very fact we are are in this position is inexcusable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It potentially opens the door for some form of mediation if for instance those involved at the EFL hadn't supplied all relevant information to their legal representatives, all speculation and conjecture of course. Obviously, I'm pleased to see DC fighting and hope for a positive outcome but none of this should distract from the underlying reasons of why we are in this position.
