I hope he’s not on the EFLs negotiating team… https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c5yv8qj0y0zo

I’ll try but you might have more faith in me than I do 😁😁. As he’s moved abroad it’s the FIFA regulations which apply. Their rule regarding training compensation makes no reference to having tried to retain the player (see below) I believe the figure due for Bloxham would have been 120,000 euros (2 years at club x 60,000) or thereabouts (part years at a club are prorated). (I’ve made the assumption Grasshoppers are a category two club for training compensation, the highest category a Swiss club can be in). We got nothing for Dolan as he was 4 days too old for this FIFA rule to apply to him.

4 isn’t it?

Back out already. I’m sure we’ll return there though.

I’m starting to suspect our scouts aren’t very good.

Given he’s now persona non grata he should have included the line ‘at date of publication, these funds do not appear to have been provided to the club’.

Chas & Dave - The Sideboard Song

Does the club have one of these?

East 17 - It’s Alright

That would have been even funnier if US weren’t on 4.5 pts. 😁

Button hasn’t moved, it’s just now impossible to see ‘til you press it…

If one of those players is banned for the replay based on accumulated yellows…

No lol. If mine and Rigger’s interpretation is right you can either: Get a 40% refund on the original match ticket but you’d then need to buy a ticket for the rearranged game or; You can get a full refund on the original match ticket but can’t then attend the rearranged game. Alternatively, Hasta is right and Rigger and I are talking nonsense. 😁😁

Them charging season ticket holders would be a breach of the season ticket terms and conditions. They might well still try it on though.

I presume because they want to attend the rearranged game. Does seem a bizarre condition though as how hard would it be to get the full refund and then have someone else get you a ticket to the second game?? The club could try to keep the money from the first game but I’m guessing the EFL wouldn’t be too impressed with their ticketing terms and conditions being broken.

6.4 mentions postponed too so abandoned must surely mean after kick off.

Speak up as a player get sold, speak up as a journalist get banned.

They’re likening the club to North Korea.

But, unless I’m reading it wrong, if you can’t attend the rearranged match you get a full refund of your original ticket (6.4 ii). Re your final sentence, the following (from season ticket terms and conditions) means it will be free):

Wonder no more…

I wonder if the club had demands which would’ve prevented this ban. If so, the LT should publish them.

I didn’t know the club still had values let alone ones which need protecting
