ExiledAjax Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 1 minute ago, Mr Popodopolous said: https://www.premierleague.com/news/3045970 The statement, perhaps the finer detail. Reference at para 3 to breaching UEFA regs in seasons outside of that previous UEFA case, so as I said, it will be interesting to see whether UEFA come at them again. Plus allegations extending into the most recent seasons, including this one we are in now, around providing documents, access and information to the PL in its investigations. "the Commission’s final award will be published on the Premier League’s website." so we will hear the final decision eventually. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 Don't strip them of anything, but everything they won in the relevant period should be labelled with an asterisk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's say we had won that then beat Arsenal, we are then into Europe, okay Europa League. Thst prize money probably enables us to take the risk on keeping one if Bryan or Reid going got promotion as well as adding Maenpaa, Hunt, Webster, Weimann. Wonder how much that cost us...ripple effect etc. Edited February 6, 2023 by Mr Popodopolous 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudski Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) Honest question...does anyone not think this goes on in football at many many clubs across the world? We only talk about it, when there are investigations. Surely we attend games and pay for our subscriptions knowing full well corruption is most likely a common theme throughout the sport. The same with Government. We know they are all corrupt yet we keep voting for them. Surely no one is surprised? The rich get richer...get found out, often get away with it, or a slap on the wrist, tomorrows chip paper...whilst the fan or voter moans about it, knowing deep down it goes on, yet continues to support it. Funny ol' world. Edited February 6, 2023 by spudski 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be an epic class action! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winterstoke toad Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 1 hour ago, Mr Popodopolous said: Okay this also raised a quite interesting question. Statute of limitations?? To what extent therefore can the Foorball League under the same aligned P&S regs therefore revisit the Aston Villa to 2019, perhaps the Wolves to 2018 although I'm unsure that was a 2018, Fulham to last year? Stoke recorded some huge losses albeit less problem there owing to Covid, list goes on. Nottingham Forest to last year- PL with Everton? Ironically I don't think Bournemouth breached to 2022 but will be of interest to see their 2022 numbers as well. I’m not as clued up on this sort of thing as you are but didn’t wolves make a big profit in the season before they went hard in the championship? .

I'll give it a go. Think they turned a profit in 2015-16 so the 1st year of the cycle. The questions about Wolves related less about FFP ie the £39m loss as such, more about whether Neves and co were being paid a true market rate, the links to Mendes etc. Kieran Maguire, Swiss Ramble both had Wolves within the limits based on the accounts as presented. Question is how did their links with Mendes help with this? Edited February 6, 2023 by Mr Popodopolous 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
