    I wouldn't hold your breath, they can't even tell people how to go to games, never mind how they've pissed the EFL off.

    I wonder if the hmrc are behind this. They are after companies using loan money as a method of tax avoidance. I (ahem) have had some experience of this myself. All friends again now though

    If we didn't jump to conclusions 108.37% of this message board wouldn't exist...

    So, we took out a loan from the EFL during the pandemic, the proviso being that we would be under an embargo until it was paid back.

    1) why did we need to take it out in the first place if the club is so close to being self sufficient (Ehab’s words)?

    2) Why hasn’t it been paid back already?

    Talking about jumping to conclusions do we even know what "type" of loan we're talking about?

    Is it about loan players or a financial loan?


    As a long shot it may even be a loan Ranger!

    I'm guessing it would all depend on the terms, sometimes it's just better to use other people's money if the terms are attractive

    I suppose it beats the usual sensationalist, bollox grabbing headlines in that haddock sheet.
    'UFO spotted over Hull'

    I was under the impression that the band had broken up. Phil Mogg must be 70 by now!

    I’d go back and look at all the stupid comments from posters with no idea what it was all about
    Now it makes sense to some degree
    It will come out in the accounts I assume

    Essentially we’ve been offered a couple of million for Greaves and Potter. Which we need to accept to keep the club afloat, however Ehab wants more money for both do has taken a loan to keep the club running. Anyone remind me how much we’ve received in transfer fees in the last 5 years?

    There’s not many clubs reduced their wage bill as much as ours and received such huge transfer fees over the years and needed a loan to keep running.

    I thought we’d be in a decent position compared to the rest of the league, how wrong was I. He doesn’t need to peddle the fans need to come back horsecrap, he and his rotten family drove them away.

    All very worrying.

    Promoted and run on a lean budget during an unprecedented global pandemic.

    Could be worse.
