This was the opinion of a sports lawyer who Radio Sheffield bought on air at the time that the charges were announced. My apologies but is your source reliable? I may have missed it but as with a lot of threads I tend to just jump in on the last few pages to see what the latest news is. Cheers. Reliable as you can be, with DC there’s nobody really other than the man himself that’s truly ‘ITK’ shall we say. Ex pro with a few links left inside the S6 corridors told me that particular tale about the EFL agreement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr C got involved in negotiations himself. Successfully negotiated the points down from 28 to 34. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myHero Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 12 hours ago, Ronnie Starling said: Middlesbrough have had a fantastic training academy for years that embarrasses our pathetic set up. He should have bought the Stadium for £30m and training ground for £30m. Our club should really do more training and scouting wise within the area. Apart from Goal keepers we have very few players which have come through the football club in the last 20 years. Football / Wednesday seem to have forgotten that concept of scouting and development, with the aim of bringing players through into the first team. Middlesbrough, for all you can say about them have had many local players come through there training academy into their first team in the same period of time. What happened to that plan Milan came up with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never really get jokes like these. Whatever the actual figures are the fact is we’ve wasted millions we didn’t have in transfer fees and wages and it’s left the club screwed financially Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, sometimes its only the humour that gets you through the sh!t this club has continued to find itself in for almost as long as I can remember.
