Ha ha commentator taking the piss about how small the Rover's crowd is and how City are the better club.

Hilarious. Just shown the Rovers ground on the cricket, virtually empty. Amusing lack of knowledge by the commentator.

Officially there is only one. But he keeps passing the security entry card out through the window so the other four can get in.

How do you know?

It finished his career off. Didn't play again.

They don't have a Player Logistics Executive. Tinpot.

Division 5 wasn't it?

I'm going to duck out of these puns.

It's a trick. Don't fall for it.

He's certainly not the saviour.

Voile, French for veil - seems appropriate over there.

FF is not going to Rovers. I believe he has moved, or is in the process of moving, from the area. Presumably using the Little's moving service. I assume he has a club lined up. He is far too good for them anyway. 18/19 first choice keeper for established Championship side. 19/20 playing for struggling L1 side with no money. Yeah, right.

Has anybody emailed Mark Ashton to ask him what he is doing about all of this as an EFL board member? -

Thinking about it, it must be a sale external to the Football group, otherwise it would just be an internal transfer, so although I haven't done CT for a while, I think the profit will be offset against this year's loss and then use up the accumulated losses brought forward. Unlikely to be a big tax bill if anything at all. -

It will probably be a group tax computation so it will all net out. -

Like Grant Thornton at Patisserie Valerie, KPMG at Carillion, PWC at BT, Deloitte at Mitie and PWC at BHS.......... In fact KPMG have a string of audit failures to their name. If the big accountancy firms can't get it right, then what chance the EFL? -

I find it quite depressing! Not about the number of accountants, I am one and we are a great bunch when you get to know us. But Coppello's comments about the EFL's audit of the clubs accounts is a really depressing aspect of the EFLs governance, or rather lack of governance. I know from practical experience how easy it can be to stretch matters when the audit comes along and practice the dark arts of creative accounting, but when you have a governing body giving you a nod and a wink to bend the rules - then what's the bloody point of FFP. The recent audit scandals have shown how lax even professional audit firms can be, let alone a bunch of incompetent amateurs. The only things that do give me hope are the number of articles that pop up about FFP such as the Times one above and the waves that Gibson (and presumably SL) are causing. It is becoming more high profile and clearly there is unrest; the dam holding back implementing FFP hasn't broken yet, but I think the cracks are appearing. -
