Ever the pessimist Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 It wouldn’t surprise me if this has broadened out into an investigation into fictitious companies sponsoring us. Certainly if the EFL were thwarted in their initial case, they might pursue us for other issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think not, but how much do we actually know about the specific charges? Or, could they be at least brought up as contextual details?

It's not, but they may be looking at the bigger picture and saying to the panel " look, SWFC have history of bending the FFP rules with sponsorship coming from their owners shell companies to try and inject" income" into the club. The EFL may well be using DC's previous rule bending to show we have history of this sort of thing. I hope I'm wrong, but wouldn't be surprised if the EFL used this against us.

It’s the obvious play though: if our lass goes mad at me for staying out late, but I point out it was already agreed that I was going to do so, she will then kick off about me not doing the gardening or something else to avoid losing face.

The hearing will be strictly limited to the original case against the club, they can't just turn up with other charges & not allow the club to time to prepare a defence.

Once a company is set up and registered there is no obligation to immediately commence trading even though said company may wish to pre advertise it's wares. Ask Dominic Rab he invested £200M into a Ferry company that had zero Ferries and only 17/- sixpence in declared assets 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The QC representing us would jump on them like a ton of bricks & the accusation would have to be ignored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are all women trained in this?! My misses does the same. 10 years and i have never won an argument. I thought i had won one once but in making by big dramatic "f**k me i won! i need to sit down" that moved into phase two of the argument (me not respecting her) and i lost anyway! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
