It can never be a "catastrophe" to get promoted at any point. Any promoted side will be up against the odds to stay up regardless of when that is. Promotion will allow us to strengthen so worst case scenario, we come back down with a stronger team compared to now. It breaks that psychological barrier, it improves our ability to attract players and staff, it will likely give us a big chance to expand our regular going fan base. We no longer would be a side that has been in the wilderness for over a decade. Tens of millions of pounds will also be generated, but the benefits go beyond that.

In the grand scheme of things, whether it is this season, next season or the season after, the calibre of our team is unlikely to be much different relative to the Premier League.

Dead right @roversfan99. That's how Dyche did it for the 6‐fingered ones, and quite a few others have followed a similar route to Premier League stability.

Who knows, Kompany may have to do it as well next season?

Clubs without parachute money are at a disadvantage getting promoted but an advantage staying up once they get there.

On current league positions all three clubs promoted without parachute money in the previous 3 seasons are staying in the PL.

At the time it was clearly a very bad career move for Nyambe to move to Wigan. Looking at it now I'm not sure I can think of any move that has been just that bad.

Refuses to resign with Rovers on an increased salary as he thought he was worth more. No offers come in. Rovers withdraw the offer. He moves to Wigan on roughly the same amount of money for only one year. Struggles to get in their team. Club are rock bottom and the players aren't even getting paid. Meanwhile Rovers are genuine playoff contenders, possibly reaching the Prem.

Even players who make bad career moves are usually getting a decent increase in salary. He needs to sack his agent.

Had Ryan stayed at Rovers, ir is more than possible JDT would have ironed out the failings in his game and turned him into the devastating right wing back he could have become.

R9vers wouldn't have needed to buy Brittain and could probably have afforded Ahmedhodzic so that stupid useless agent screwed us as well.

But then would JRC have got his chance? Perhaps a player with even more potential than Nyambe.

More than possible is a bit strong for me. As good as he was defensively, there's a lot that needed ironing out if he wanted to contribute the way that Pickering and JRC have this season - or Brittain earlier on.

 

I think it's more likely than he would've been given an handful of opportunities, but probably would've been frozen out like Edun has been.

But he didn't, so we move on.

News doing the rounds today that DAZN are keen on streaming every last minute of all EFL games as part of the new deal, amongst other proposals.

Not surprised one bit EFL is pushing this. Will only hit attendances in Stadium and its another sign the EFL isn't fit for purpose

We don't need to concern ourselves with that, GHR. The Premier League will remain unaffected. Leave the nobbers and the like to deal with that 😁.

The below post is from this twitter account and he is spot on with his opinion in my opinion.

With news that DAZN plan to broadcast every EFL game live, there’s no better time to explain why the 3pm blackout is so important.

England has the deepest pyramid, in terms of attendances, and no other league has such a traditional and sacrosanct time for football for ALL games. There’ll be thousands of walk-up, casual fans who’ll stop going to watch their local team because they can watch the big boys on telly.
It's these casual fans who pay their £10-25 on the turnstile, plus other spends, which helps to keep these clubs running in terms of a weekly cash flow because season ticket holders pay in one at the start of the season. Think of the amount of away fans that would stop going and travelling hours on a coach cos they can watch it on telly. It's also not about 1 game, or 1 weekend. It's about habit-forming, it's about behavioural patterns. It's about how removing the blackout could, in the long-term, have an irreversible effect on parts of the pyramid.

England is the only country in Europe where we have one time slot. 73% of match kick off at 3pm on a Saturday. As opposed to 28% in Germany which is the next highest.

You’ll then open up the possibility for people going to watch it at their mates or decide to stay in the pub and watch it. Again this is habit forming.

It’s so dangerous and could kill what’s brilliant about English football. You get 40,000 at a ground in the championship. Three League One teams get around 30,000. A League Two team get 20,000. There’s a National League team that got 15,000+ this season. South Shields who play in the 7th tier average 2,000 fans. You can’t risk losing the beauty of that just to pander to those who don’t already go to football matches. I completely understand that there are circumstances that mean unfortunately some supporters are unable to attend. But the power of English football, it’s supporters and it’s attendances far outweigh that.

A lot of this has been taken from @DaleJohnsonESPN who articulates this point so well. Let’s hope the 3pm blackout never gets scrapped.

Reading staring down the barrel of a 6 points deduction, putting them right back into a relegation dogfight. 

I thought the deadline for points deductions to be effective this season as opposed to next season passed at midnight last  night. 

Now more than 13 minutes too late...

I think that's the deadline for new cases. The EFL submitted this one in on time.
