But no ref blew, so Leicester just nonchalantly regained possession of the puck and carried on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone ask you for your ID and they don't have a right to do so, do you show them your ID? It could be we have something to hide or we are being bloody minded.

Poznan34 Posted 6 March Share Posted 6 March We'd have been better off spending some £££ summer 2022 and not getting relegated and taking the points hit, if (as it looks like) we'd be getting a penalty either way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babylon Posted 6 March Share Posted 6 March 1 minute ago, Sol thewall Bamba said: Here we go again Mods close the thread before Babs gets upset about people speculating. No you are right, people should just slate the club without facts. Just like that started to do in this thread, clearly without even bothering to read the panel judgement, something sky didn’t bother to do. The statements are entirely meaningless to our current situation. It’s based around financials last March, before selling £90m worth of players and before wage reductions. So what exactly do you want to speculate about? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pliskin Posted 6 March Share Posted 6 March @Babylon will likely know….. but just because of this news today, it doesn’t automatically mean we’re trying to hide something as a club or we’re trying to buy some extra time because we’ve failed to comply. As a business, if there’s a loophole that would benefit you, you take it surely? That’s what rights and entitlements are for, and If legally the EFL have no stance on it, then it should be utilised. If they decide to change their rules as a result, so be it…. It’s more a problem for them anyway as it’s their regulations and their lack of foresight . But, from what’s been said, why should our accounts be scrutinised by the EFL when we’ve just spent so many seasons in the PL, surely it isn’t fair? Is there a grace period? Do you get time to adjust to the championship because you’re going to be coming down with a massive outgoing if you’re an established PL club surely?

EFL would have base the assessment on our 22/23 account which are bound to fail championship P & S. They would have then asked for a action plan on how we are going to move from our 22/23 position go meet 23/24 obligations. We have told them they are abusing their own rules and we don't need to give them a plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're this seasons prohections, you have to submit your accounts to the league before you release them publicly.

Scotch Posted 6 March Share Posted 6 March 8 minutes ago, Chocolate Teapot said: It's this year's accounts and a projection. We're projecting to break the rules and don't want to publicise the plan to correct it. Which is either a fire sake or getting promoted. Sky haven't sensationalised a thing there. That doesn't make much sense though, does it? If it was purely our finances from THIS season then "we were in the PL" wouldn't be a viable defense which it clearly is, given that an independent panel have sided with us. Also, if that were the case, the EFL wouldn't now be looking to change the rules and sync their financial report times with the EPL. ...So it MUST account for at least SOME of our finances whilst in the PL, no? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxontherocks Posted 6 March Share Posted 6 March How does it work then if we get promoted, finalize our accounts in June, the EFL look at them and find we breached the rules. 10 point deduction waiting for us on return or points deduction in the prem?
