City Cat Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Once again the Peaky Blinders have been working their voodoo and stayed up due to Wigan's point deduction. Even worse, there is now a fair chance that a sheep worshipping team will once again get to the Prem. Luton away at least....might get a ticket this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might not follow through with this now, but will Wigan take up the fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BetterRedthanBlue Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 Brentford deserve to go up imo but it'll probably be Fulham that do.

The teams that finish first, second and win through the playoffs deserve to go up. Brentford bottled it when it mattered most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SecretSam Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 Gutted for Charlton, I have a colleague who's a fan. Absolutely overjoyed that the Florists f**ked it up again, I hate them with a passion. Pleased to see Dull going down. Ha ha. As for the rest, don't care. Amused to see Derby do nothing, again.

However I fear that both Derby and Sheffield Wednesday (Wigan is a complex and bizarre case albeit 12 points the automatic admin penalty so we'll leave that ton one side- FFP wasn't an issue there). I fear one of following unfortunately, for the two clubs who have had/are having FFP hearings: They will be found innocent. They will be found not guilty. It will be case not proven. It Will be a case of blame/error on both sides- ie the initial authorisation under Harvey. Hence, I'm starting to fear that Derby and Sheffield Wednesday will get off scot free here. All the 4 above are different types of verdict but would both lead to the same result- zero points or punishment. The delay and delay and delay some more worries me a fair bit!

Think we need a hard deadline, perhaps the day before the transfer window opens that cases of FFP need to be heard the onus has to be on the EFL to collect evidence and make their case quickly rather than dragged out, introduce a rule whereby non-compliance from a club is deemed as a guilty verdict.

I agree. Think Sheffield Wednesday in particular have been stalling via arbitration- however I agree, they were charged last November, around the middle of the month and evidence was collected before then as there were reports in September 2019 that things were amiss! I also think the EFL made an error in pushing for both club charges and personal charges at the same time- the club charges much more important, this took up valuable time and money and would've been harder to prove! If you win the club charges, by all means analyse personal charges too. 23 minutes ago, Monkeh said: there does, but Rp has decades of mismanagement to sort out at the efl, Yep and in particular the last CEO- Shaun Harvey- utter clown he was! I still don't see why, legally and technically, there can't be some kind of club vote, or suspension, or maybe even (though I'm not really pushing for it) expulsion or such based on voting. It's a members club, the EFL or so we're led to believe. Owners vote on this! Barnsley are quite right, it's harming the competition and the other clubs in it.

Had it in their own hands this time last week after Huddersfield pulled off a shock- had it in their own hands and blew it! Point at Stoke and I think they would have gone on and beat Barnsley. Interesting to see if they can rally for one last push. Would deserve it over the season IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
