There are two issues, one the rules are bent and two, we and others, broke them, they are not related.

It’s hard not to think we did break the rules though as it seems a slam dunk, but yes innocent until proven guilty.

Suspect we have an embargo in lieu of having a business plan. Bit petty, but I could imagine this being the reason.

I could easily see an 8 points penalty

Seems there is enough sh*t to go around in this case. Worst pass the parcel ever.

Premier League is already saying to the EFL ‘Hold my mother feckin beer’.

But Top is the boss, so of course it’s his fault.

Not certain it’s true, that is just how I read it. It would hamstring us as selling to meet the requirements would mean selling at discount prices. We can sign free agents and get loans I think someone said, so it’s not the end of the world.(just as we know it)

You. Signed. The. Contract.

Think it is more a case of we are guilty, but they have overlooked the fact the accountancy period is not over and we could still sell before it closes to solve the issue?

This would require an unexpected and as yet unseen solidarity between EPL and EFL to rapidly apply a new ruling they both agreed to conform too this season, and would almost certainly suggest an agenda.

How to maximise your assets value

No, you are right, a fire sale and we are clear I assume, it just does not seem like we would a good job of one.

It’s the letter rather than the spirit that’s the issue I feel, despite how utterly hypocritical that is of both EPL and EFL.

Not at all. If we go up then the EPL screw us, if we stay down the EPL does.

This I know, we are attempting to ‘slip through the cracks’ of the lack of cohesion between EFL and the PL. but this is a short term solution, as wherever we end up, they come at us harder.

I am uncomfortable with how we are acting here tbh, it seems feckin clear we broke the rules, but to come on all billy big bollocks is pretty weird. The rules might be a joke, but it’s their rules for their competition and we signed up for it.

Embargo is null and void with promotion, stop panicking.

Thankfully the rules as they stand cannot achieve this I think.

We have completed our transition to Mani City Mini it seems

We are fortunate that the PL and the EFL cannot play nice, as it provides some wriggle room, however we are rubbing their faces in it so cannot imagine the punishment will not occur and also imagine it will the biggest yet if we make it into the PL. If we fail to go up and remain in the Championship then imagine we get points deduction + transfer embargo + God knows what. Mission Closed Shop will then be complete.

I understand, he is glacially slow, and I have mentioned this before. We suffer because we have no pace in the back line, not just because of Vestergaard. So pairing a slower CB with one maybe two, faster CBs, could mitigate the problem, but I also concede it involves making him a central requirement, so would be further targeted (See Winks without Ricardo)

I agree focusing on one or two bad games in recent memory and disregarding huge performances for the majority of a seasonshould be the thinking the club** adopts (Feel free to insert obligatory laughing response) ** although with this club, who knows.

Fascinating abhorrent and utterly bewildering. Would watch again.

Loophole FC, this is sure to end well.
