MattFox Posted 25 January Posted 25 January Pretty clear that the KP strategy is going to be too dump all the clubs problems on this to deflect from their incompetence 2

Turtle27 Posted 25 January Posted 25 January Can anyone explain to me why the club are blaming no money being spent on staying with PSR limits. It just doesn’t make sense, surely the previous years are already set in stone so this year is separate and we have yet to spend anything yet we have made money. surely they should just come out and say we’re skint as it makes no sense. 1

We are skint, but PSR is also a mess, as they cant manage the club effectively. 1
Number 6 Posted 25 January Posted 25 January Suspect we'll find out the deduction this week, just as it would mean max chaos.

Fairly sure there’s a three year rolling period where you’re allowed to make a certain amount of loss. That allowable amount is much smaller in the Championship. So whilst we’ve made money from transfers, our wages are still way too high, and any further investment probably locks in loss over the three years, meaning more PSR problems. 1

It has been suggested that Top is in the country because we are expecting the decision imminently—sacking Marti wasn’t on the agenda until yesterday. Although I’m not sure how having Top around when the verdict is announced will be of much benefit when the inevitable appeal can just be arranged with the lawyers on the phone. 1
stu Posted 27 January Posted 27 January (edited) Lots of mention of no PSR questions due to legal reasons in these interviews this morning makes me think even more we will be charged for 24/25 once the outcome of 23/24 is announced. This would explains the no Premier League statement about clubs meeting/breaching at the usual time this year. Hope I am wrong. Edited 27 January by stu
Wymsey Posted 28 January Posted 28 January The club must have a good case put forward against any pre-official decision for such a delay. 1
Nick Posted 29 January Posted 29 January Just read on another site that we face a potential 9 point deduction per each of the three charges… 27 points - can’t see it happening and probably untrue? 2

teblin Posted 29 January Posted 29 January No way it’s that many surely. But explains why he said he was very worried.

Very much doubt this is true. There have been a few on here including myself that have been told IF there was a points deduction we would be looking at 9 points. 100% going to be 3 because we didnt comply then anything there after. Very much doubt it would be 27.

We still have players on over inflated wages, revenue is falling over last season, no big profitable player sales. Until July comes and we ditch more of the over inflated wages you have to balance the books.

Which will get even lower next season too. So I hate to be negative but the expense reduces possibly more. 1
