Wednesday_Jack Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Absolute shower of poo!! It’s a governing body run by people who are literally so far away from the sports morals and principles it’s untrue. how can people who have a vested interest in 4/6 clubs run a democracy for 24 clubs??

Bristol city Stephen Pearce Derby county Nigel Howe. Reading Jez Moxey . Burton Albion Steven Curwood. Fleetwood town John Nixon . Carlisle These are the clueless clowns running one of the top football establishments in the world. Why can’t they make a decision for all the clubs involved around the relegation zone including us and Wigan to at least let everyone know where they stand, good or bad for next season. Utter joke of how to run a business The decision as been made by the independent panel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are negotiating any punishment with EFL not sure how that is independent? TBH, couldn't give a throw what the EFL are liable for, they started this process and should reap the consequences. An independent pannel, shrowded in secrecy?!?! For this to be dragging on so long they have to be consulting all parties concerned to get them to agree what would be acceptible. My opinion only. I know feck all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In which case I wonder just how independent the panel actually are. Surely their role is to consider the evidence and deliver a verdict, in isolation, without consideration of outside influences. If it's a negotiation, at this rate well be backdating the verdict, nearly as much as the stadium sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are also the ones who wrote the rules so badly that they left the loophole that allowed clubs to sell their grounds. Then they realised their ******** up and tried to go back on their discussions with us including their agreement that the sale price was right and that the rules allowed the transaction we were planning. I do agree the independent review panel is 2/3rds independent. The other third is chosen by them so will be looking after their interests. Is that independent? I don't think so but we will see. If we get a unanimous verdict saying there's no case to answer I'll accept it's really independent. If it's 2-1 in our favour and their pick is the odd one you will struggle to persuade me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would wager heavily that every set of rules, ever written by any governing body, has loopholes for those who are willing to find them. Step forward accountants and lawyers to find those holes, employed by wealthy businessmen & women who have ballsed up. No system is perfect, and I am astonished how our fanbase blames the EFL for this s h i t shower, when the vast majority of clubs work within the rules and crack on. DC chased the dream, came close twice and then refused to cut cloth accordingly, so that he could keep chasing, and keep chasing and keep chasing. A classic gambler's mentality. At some point, you need to hit the jackpot, or the house comes down on you. We may just have managed to sneak out of the fire escape and live to fight another day, or we about to get taken into a back room by a bunch of bruisers, who are armed with pliers and a blowtorch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said he was waiting for some taxi firm or other to turn up to take him to the hearing. Don't think anybodys suggested that yet. Hes been waiting for that all important boost of energy to do so. From some energy drink or something, I dunno!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
