I see its another down grade to a ETC from RTC the race to the bottom continues.

Brilliant. Helps massively, hopefully not just for me, but for those on here and beyond. It could rumble on for a long time this, by the sounds of it and the longer it does, the more if an impact it will have on the club. It begs the question yet again, as to why under these circumstances, would anyone hold onto the club, and after last nights WATR AGM the very fact that enquires have been made to purchase the club, but have been stonewalled, leads me back to where I have always been and that is the are running scared of some questionable activity, being discovered, should a deep dive of the accounts and the original takeover, take place.

I admire your optimism 😁

lol man of steel

This whole saga will still be going on in the year 2035 at this rate.

What do you mean, we've got ample backup in Forshaw

😂

I don’t know when it is because, as much as I’ve tried, I can’t find information anywhere confirming a date or whether one has even been set yet. In terms of what it is - as far as I understand it: * The Directorate of Enforcement have made their complaint (confirmed in last court order) to the Adjudicating Authority - in other words they believe their investigation has revealed a case to be answered. * The Adjudicating Authority (could be one person or multiple peoples) will hold an inquiry, looking at the evidence, allowing the Venkys to defend themselves etc. * They will then either be found guilty and a fine issued or they will be found innocent and the matter will be brought to a close** ** Both parties have a right of appeal and a right to appeal that appeal. In terms of the anticipated outcome, I think someone said the DoE has a 95% success rate. In terms of the fine, this can be anything up to three times the amount of the monies sent in contravention of the rules. I hope this helps.

Could be a blessing force their hand in not selling trav

As did on average the whole of the league people here really really missing the point last summer many here said no szmodics equalled relegation as there was no way we could replace his goals nobody could replace 27 goals but what we did was find ways to no be a one man team and having every contribute a bit more than the season before and to me 7 short of that plus 13 points and 12 places better off is a huge success theres a million and one things to be depressed about supporting rovers but to try and push a negative onto a positive season (in comparison to the one before) is just crazy

It was £30 but there was a £10 penalty fee for those that bought a ticket in person, so really it was only £20.

My prediction Birmingham (A) 1st game Wrexham (H) Final game

Championship will be his level Chaddy. Like Armstrong. What exactly did he do against Spain apart from run around a bit and miss two good chances ? Don’t just listen to what the commentators are telling you. Use your own eyes. Last night he was invisible. Every ball played up to him was lost. Delap missing could be the difference between us winning and losing.

Where is this from?! Only been on the training pitch 2 days!

£30 for the 30 year anniversary wasn't it? https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2024/may/21/season-ticket-prices-reduced-for-2024-25/ But yes hardly a reduction that was going to move the needle. Thick as mince they are.

would you mind expanding on the investigation, has reached the adjudicating phase? When is this, what dies it mean and what is the anticipated outcome? Sorry, if I am asking too much, as I know you have spent a lot of time already on this.

Apparently Tavares is out for a month...What a start!

And if we'd scored more and been capable of scoring more we'd have nicked a few more points and been in the play offs.

Well we scored fewer goals.

Maybe things will change now the investigation has reached the adjudicating phase - or maybe this is something else which will drag on and on and on* * The investigation itself started in 2021…

Could you confirm what type of buyers enquired as mentioned by Mike in his speech? Were they individuals, corporates or consortiums?

So it will inevitably drag on and on for a year or two yet by which time - soon - we are out of players to sell to make any dent in the running costs. IF this carries on relegation is nailed on unless they bite the bullet and meet running costs AND court obligations and costs, plus the 20% money transfer fees ! I suspect the club (i.e Suhail) know this and this is why the stall is being set out and the type of guy they seem to be seeking come in for Waggot and run it on the breadline whereas he kept it just above that. Again the only real solution for the betterment of the club is sell it or at least seek investment from people who can do so.

Here is a video of last nights AGM for those interested. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1ZIZ7Xgick

Get your mind out the gutter 😁😁

As I’ve nothing better to do 😁, I’ve had another read of the court order dated 23/6/2023 which sets out Venkys’ argument… They appear to be saying (because of the timing of their investment) the 2004 FEMA Regulations are relevant (not the 2022 ones). Under the 2004 Regs they’d need permission (due to the investigation) from the bank to send funds - something the bank had been happy to provide. Under the 2022 Regs they need permission from the Directorate of Enforcement - something the DoE are unwilling to give. This argument is yet to be fully considered in court… What has happened is - the £3.54 million being approved as an interim measure + A series of separate applications either requesting permission to send further funds or to vary the conditions required to do so. An absolute shitload of adjournments.
