... are we supposed to sympathise. Sheffield United were placed under a transfer embargo due to late payments They are six points ahead of third-placed Middlesbrough with nine games left Club will be docked 12 points if they go into administration before next Thursday https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/f...ting-measures-avoid-going-administration.html
If clubs like Sheff Utd pay more for signings and bigger wages for loan players, outside of the rules ... ... that's cheating.
The paint one is hilarious. Are they not going to paint the white lines on the pitch on a match day? The bairn has played at some ropey school pitches where the lines were burnt into the pitch , but this is taking the piss surely. They were PL a few year ago and owned by a ****ing Prince. **** them. Hope they **** off to L1 for 4 years and see how they like it.
There's every chance they will go up through the playoffs anyway and escape their financial woes. Such clubs shouldn't be allowed to be promoted. Clubs like Luton are overachieving massively, on a shoestring in comparison. But Sheff Utd win more games by fielding players that they can't afford to pay for.
I think it is a massive problem. Watching the likes of Sander Berg the other night just showed. If clubs go up when they are clearly unable to afford how they have done it makes a mockery of the competition.
Its not clubs or owners or supporters to blame its our stinking system of governance and its get rich quick at all costs financial backers and supporters. End of rant, its been a bad week. OaU
Sportswashing is a problem after The Liar had authorised the sale of the skunks to that abhorrent regime... football is funked and it all started with sky. It will be interesting to see how another country gets on with buying manu.
One rule change that would stop this would be any club found to of broken rules forfits the right to promotion, so as this season stands both Burnley and sheff U refused prom to the prem lge, unless Burley gets it paperwork passed off before the last game of the season
Clubs are risking fines because they know the huge amounts for gaining promotion would swallow them up. It makes you wonder if clubs are actually being allowed to hang themselves.
