News due this week??

So even though we're still in the FFP red, the sale has provided leeway to be able to buy players etc.

 

I wondered if he could have just took the points deduction and saved himself the money spent on the ground sale.

Then spend that cash on players instead.

You're welcome Neil. Another Bentley for the garage

I don't know what Neil drives now, but he used to drive a right old banger

 

Even the wife commented on his car

 

He was driving up the long driveway to his manshun, and I said to the wife, "that's Neil, he owns Owlstalk"

 

She said "What? and he drives around in a car like that"

 

I told her it was just for show to make people think he wasn't minted

Think if he'd have done that we'd have been embargoed and not allowed to buy any players.

Any tips on the 4.10 at Doncaster? 

 

My main tip is not to confuse horses and pigeons

Ok cheers.

It's all so laughable. We have to jump through these hoops yet the prem clubs come down with a packed lunch and a pocket full of cash given to them.

Thank god we did what we did so we could have the right good laugh that we're having this season then

 

 

At least we are having it the EFL not the conference.

 We will find out in due course whether there is a story of any merit. 

 

I follow both  Maguire and Løhmann and the stuff they dig up can make for fascinating reading but we only ever hear their side of it, the club never responds to their findings. 

 

So how much "truth" there actually is, is open to question. 

 

 

 

 

 

They don't actually dig anything up. The only information they obtain is from items that are readily available to the public. They might put it in a fancy graph to impress the likes of Neil

 

However there is not enough information within the accounts to give detailed analysis of anything. They can't get it from elsewhere either.

 

The EFL disciplinary meeting - and any appeal - was tighter than a ducks bottom when it came to leaks.

 

DC is equally very secretive

 

So I am not convinced that any rumours would be forthcoming that have any merit. What I would expect is that Companies House might issue a legal proceedings letter or indeed a winding up notice for not filing accounts as yet. A couple of months late would be fairly standard for that.

 

Who knows but whatever comes out - if it does on Thursday - then don't take Maguires stance on it as gospel

No the sale was to prevent us posting over £67m worth of losses over 15/16, 16/17 & 17/18 accounting period and stop us getting a relegation threatening points deduction.

So bored so for a little relief decided creating an Upsidedown Pie would offer a little light relief. And derange this strange thread.

 

METHOD:- Roll out the crust mix and place in the bottom of the dish. Layer with Onions, Beef, Potato and Carrots liberal salt and Oxo stock.

                   Put in oven Upsidedown on Gasmark 7 for 45 minutes.

 

RESULT:-   One unholy mess !

 

CONCLUSION:-  I'll let you know once I've finished cleaning the Oven.

But then we get punished anyway and still face a points deduction that will likely relegate us.

It's crackers.

Gotta say, I usually find them both informative and interesting.

 

Can't believe though Maguires got heads up on anything official, like Companies House action.

 

Hopefully, some take over news and either Red Bull or Amanda would be great.

 

If Blades can get a bung from Bin Laden, why can't we?

 

Or maybe the £4 million compensation from Newcastle has arrived.
