It could but on the other side SMI since day 1 Woodgate 'hijacking' SMI client Lyle Taylor transfer with impending bid is an easier sell as BS to me personally just turned my scepticism up, a bit like how we supposedly chased Snodgrass every window for 2 years, ah good times.

We were kind of after Snodgrass to be fair. I can't say I'm all that fussed about Taylor though. Link to post Share on other sites

Foogle 2,104 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 If the Dijksteel deal goes through we could actually field a good XI made up entirely of players 24 and under: --------------Pears--------------- Dijksteel--Fry--Wood--Bola -Tavernier--McNair--Wing- Coulson----Fletcher----Browne The future seems bright! 2 Link to post Share on other sites

If I understand correctly the FFP measurement is based on the most recent 3 seasons. Looking at our last 3 seasons where 2 of which included parachute payments, I would suggest we are compliant. I've nerded a bit and reckon playing this trump card (if needed) wouldn't be until the 2021/22 season (provided we've not secured promotion beforehand). But I would guess by that time the EFL would have closed such loopholes with rule amendments. Just thinking out loud. The issue with this is that Gibson would actually have to pay the money to buy the stadium. I don't think he wants to sink in another £80m or whatever the cost would be. I'm not even sure that he could. Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't he sky the one before too? I bet Wing could smash a good pen. He'd probably put a hole in the keeper and the net lol Link to post Share on other sites
