And there it is the methane snorters ultimate retort you lady garden ????

Just ordered you one of these @Mr Popodopolous https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51129422

Sensible move. Why employ a Stadium Manager when you don't have a stadium?

PM me if you want this weekend's winning lottery numbers

"Bristol Rovers have a manager in place who has done an amazing job with his squad and I really believe that this is a club that can go places.” Bath, Nailsworth, etc. etc.?

Great news!! Well done to the EFL. I didn't think that their losses to June 2018 took them...perhaps I double counted on some infrastructure spending? Or wrongly classified DCFC Accounts as opposed to Sevco 5112 ones as the right ones for FFP ones? £39m + allowables over 3 seasons. That sounds spot on though, about EFL valuation being set against the £81.1m one and the difference being removed from the FFP calculations to cause a recalculation. Hopefully the EFL are still weighing up whether Hillsborough worth £60m. I don't think it is, so even if it can be put into accounts, the same should apply...£60m- just for arguments sake say £30m is deemed about par. You then lop off £27m even from the profit..double adjustment if you like.- just because you get punishment with one aspect, doesn't mean a free pass on the other. Aston Villa next please... Shows how inadequate Shaun Harvey was however. Anyone- and I mean pretty well anyone- would have been an improvement on him! I do wonder if anyone from the EFL has ever read this thread, just out of idle interest on their part.

Not only approved, but did not break the rules as the EFL cocked up that bit when formulating the new ffp rules. HOWEVER, where they MAY have failed is over the stadium valuation at £81m. Even though they could sell the stadium , as they have done, EUFA rules say that sale of any such asset has to be at fair value and I think most of us on this thread were more than sceptical as to Derby's valuation. Unless there is another issue we don't yet know about, my guess is that the EFL have had their own valuation carried out on Pride Park. If it is substantially lower than that which Derby applied, then I would then assume they have re-worked the ffp calculation based on the profit ( or otherwise!) based on the lower valuation. If this resulted in losses over the 3 years in excess of the £35m(?) allowed under ffp this would trigger the action now being reported. P.S. Has the EFL copied and pasted this thread to use as evidence in the case against WR'sDCFC?

Looks like it's caught everyone out. Wouldn't fancy batting last on it.

After a long day of reading how some of our fans want boil LJ in vinegar it's rather heartwarming and a welcome interlude to catch up on the goings on at delusion central. Only they can say they're building a stadium on land they don't own. Or have a fan base moaning about being 4th in the league. Or employ a manager who's never actually won a game.

Neither stand has a roof for those tickets!!

Just read this golden nugget. so the clubs supporters club could be Suing the club ? https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/bristol-rovers-supporters-clubs-elected-3739820

No doubt accompanied by use of the term 'lady garden' - something that few of them will have ever seen unless that of a sibling
