hertsexile Posted September 20, 2021 Report Share Posted September 20, 2021 It’s unfortunate that the EFL didn’t take the appropriate action against Derby at the end of last season. They themselves admitted that the fixture at the start of the season was interchangeable! However Derby continued to to stall to their accounts submission and once again the EFL failed to lay down any punishment. I agree money has a lot to do with this but action should have been taken against Derby prior to this. I have a great deal of sympathy for Wycombe and feel they do have a case for some sort of compensation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeh Posted September 20, 2021 Report Share Posted September 20, 2021 Reading through BBC article administration would not be the end of derby's punishment 9 with 3 suspended we know about 12 for administration we know about But in the article on the BBC there is talk of another 15 points being deducted and it may not even end there.

I mean when you consider the solidarity payment in 18/19 was £4.6m for championship clubs and only £700,000 for league one and the TV revenue as well they missed out on a lot of money and given covid has impacted every club financially just imagine what that money would do for a club like Wycombe.

Exactly what I was thinking after Rotherham have been one of the clubs that run a really tight ship due to financial fair play , that coupled with the fact Wycombe weren’t even in the play offs when they got promoted and were in free fall at the time surely if Wycombe get compensated then Rotherham are just as deserving.

Mr Popodopolous Posted September 20, 2021 Report Share Posted September 20, 2021 Both Rotherham and Wycombe would be highly deserving no doubt, but Wycombe would have the better claim by dint of being the closest team to survival- that said had Rotherham held on a few more minutes, had Pack not got what is for him a rare thing indeed- a goal- then this could be academic as Derby would have dropped in any case. That said, I doubt Wycombe have much of a case really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fordy62 Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 Wycombe should count themselves lucky, shouldn’t they have been on the receiving end of some legal action at the hands of the blue few a number of years back?

(can someone remind me of the pathetic reason why?) I can't remember exactly, but it was something to do with Wycombe playing a player that was unregistered or suspended? I think that happened in the season before the 15ers got relegated to the Conference. I think the 15ers tried to say Wycombe should be docked points instead of getting a fine. Which was just bloody silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delay the season Of course not. If Derby had broken the rules and the punishment was just and within the rules it’s obvious what should have happened and let the judge sort it out after. Derby broke the rules and kept braking them and now look at them what a shitfest while Wycombe suffer the consequences of conducting themselves in an ethical manner These issue always seem to go against the likes of Swindon Bournemouth before they were fashionable Luton Wycombe. Never a Derby or any other name. The board of Derby have taken gaminess with the rules to a new level. The EFL (including and particularly it’s commission/s) have a lot to answer for over an extended period in this case. The EFL were at fault for not taking action when it was needed, how the decision was arrived at has to be looked into by a commission! A commission for a commission that kept exonerating this skullduggery What were Derby going to do if they get relegated throw more money away they don’t have to fight it However Derby are now getting the book thrown at them way past time. No commission this time everything will be in the public domain They are now an almost valueless entity over 50m in debt and no ground. Just supporters who in the main have had their money spent on paying the players staff and rent. It must be difficult for their fans. But not all of them are in denial. Just read the threads. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.dcfc.co.uk/amp/news/2021/07/efl-statement-derby-county-sanction-written-reasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
