I am asking for more information but he's limited to what he can say atm but like Lurker said in earlier post that it's a very complex situation. I wasn't informed regarding selling the club like Lurker was so maybe he could give more information to that. I don’t know much more than what I’ve said. Basically, they’re up for more than breaking the FFP rules. It’s the price of the stadium (same as others) Date of Sale Date of purchasing company’s incorporation Financing of the purchase. The final 3 have resulted in a greater penalty than what others have/will get if found guilty. Funny that a Rick Parry legal case could save our season 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Funny that a Rick Parry legal case could save our season Apparently Gibson has now got the majority of the backing of league's chairman in his case against suing the EFL regarding breaking of the FFP regulations. I can't see how this can be ignored and it may have a reason on why the EFL are looking into the possibility of introducing a salary cap across the board (Finally!) Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds like some big chanhges forthcoming. It'll be interesting to see the Wedensday penalty and when the news will break. Currently I'm the itk guy on a Danish football forum.

boroie 484 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 How 'typical Boro' will it be when both Wednesday and Wigan take massive point deductions, yet we still finish in the bottom 3 😕 Link to post Share on other sites

On the grounds that we're rubbish so the games haven't been fair. 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites
DurhamRed 2,043 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Lol the only hope boro have on staying up is clubs being deducted points for being naughty or bankrupt. Link to post Share on other sites
Downsouth 6,175 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Had a complete change of mind we will be ok due to the mess others have got themselves into and that we are about to go on a five game unbeaten run. My time machine recently finished allowed me to go into the future and I am pleased to report that all will be well. I will not allow myself to tell you how next season finished 6 Link to post Share on other sites

ballyclover 210 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Just been reading on the sheff wed forum, they seem to think they won't be given a points deduction until they are safe from relegation and then given a small deduction that still keeps them up. If they are given a deduction that sees them in the bottom and relegated they will appeal the punishment and that could continue for months to come meaning the league cannot arrange the next seasons fixtures They also dislike Gibbo for obvious reasons and would love to relegate us on the last day of the season. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
RiseAgainst 3,776 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 (edited) Four draws from our last four games got us promoted a few seasons ago. Maybe four draws will keep us up this year? (Four draws plus massive points deductions for all the naughty clubs). 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly can't understand the attitude of backing their owners when they've blatantly cheated. I'd be embarassed. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

The point of bringing the hearing forward is to give them the deduction during the season. Either way there'll be an appeal. The deduction will be greater than 9 points for the reasons I've said above. The reason why they're saying all that is that's what they're hoping happens. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

HaHa. No matter what if any punishment, the appeal to prevent next season fromstarting sounds a bit like blackmail to me. Good luck to them with that. Link to post Share on other sites
