Sheff Wed - financial issues

[The Fitter]

I hope this proud old club gets back to where it belongs. It’s an absolute disgrace how these awful owners of clubs have been allowed to buy them in the first place

There needs to be some vetting in place before someone can buy a club. Too many uncommitted owners out there who treat it it purely as a business and have no connection with the fans or the culture. Countries, like Saudi Arabia should not be allowed to buy players.

Think the fans have suffered enough without this ffs

Nathan Redmond has signed for them on a short contract

 

[one footed wonder]

having sports direct plastered allover

He’s many things but he’s not daft when it comes to business, mags would be absolutely fucked without him just they never have the balls to admit it

Chansiri banned for 3 years from owning a football club. It should be life

Get all the bad stuff out of the way and then only way is up

 

[Neautral]

Aye deals the relegation of it wasn’t already but personally see it as better for them than remaining under Chansiri with half a shot at staying up

 

[gretzky]

I hope they bounce back next season with a decent owner.

I know the EFL will say this is the rule and it's there for good reason but f'chrissake, how does it really benefit anyone?

They're trying to find a new owner and this won't help one iota.

And, as said above, Chansiri should be banned for life from owning an English club. That's surely evident to all?

 

[pRICK]

Really meaningless the additional points deduction. They've no hope of staying up after the first deduction. I suppose the saving grace is that it's not a deduction for next season

Punishing the club for having a shit owner that the EFL approved in the first place.

They didn't have issues with chansiri at first so I'm not sure how the EFL wouldn't have approved him

So why aren’t the EFL looking at themselves now rather than giving another points deduction to Sheff Wed for having the temerity to have an EFL approved owner?

Hopefully they can have a fresh start next season in L1. They should do what we did and buy mainly young players, the fans have proven they are patient, just need an owner who can manage the club well and the only way is up.

 

[Eric gates hair]

Is this the last deduction?

I’d take it now so it’s a clean slate next season and hopefully they can storm back up.

Warrabout the mooted merger with Sheffield United?

The fit and proper person test looks at things like bankruptcies and criminal records.

He had neither.

It’s almost impossible to predict what he would do.
