Wham - Last Christmas

Would have taken that at the start of the day.

I’ve edited my previous post to include what I think must be the rule you’re referring to. It looks like it covers the sale of tangible assets whether that’s to a connected party or not.

Thank you for the clarification. I’m presuming its part (b) of the following?: 1.1.4 Adjusted Earnings Before Tax means Earnings Before Tax adjusted to exclude: (a) costs (or estimated costs as the case may be) in respect of the following: (i) depreciation and/or impairment of tangible fixed assets (net of any capital grants); (ii) amortisation or impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets (but excluding amortisation and/or impairment of the costs of players’ registrations); (iii) Women’s Football Expenditure; (iv) Youth Development Expenditure; (v) Community Development Expenditure; and (vi) in respect of Seasons 2019/20, 2020/21 and 2021/22 only, COVID-19 Costs; and (b) with effect from, and including the Accounting Reference Period covering Season 2021/22, profit/loss on disposal of any tangible fixed asset. See @KentExile I told you it was dangerous to defer to my knowledge 😁

Not to worry 👍

You asked me what the contradiction in Chaddy’s post was - I was just trying to explain.

Sounds dangerous to me 😁

Would it not come under the following part of the regulation? 1.1.8 Associated Party Transaction means any transaction, whether directly or indirectly, between a Club and an Associated Party. In considering whether a transaction is an Associated Party Transaction, The League will direct its attention to the substance of the transaction and not merely the legal form. Which, as far as I understand it, means such transactions are allowed but they will be scrutinised more closely to ensure they are for the true market value.

Thank you again 👍

1. The fact we didn’t bowl well doesn’t alter the fact the conditions were ideal. 2. Therefore Anderson clearly has had ideal conditions to bowl in. 3. Therefore that can’t be used as an argument against him being over the hill* * Just to be clear, I don’t think he is over the hill. Edit to add - I agree with most of the rest of your post, the bit I disagree with is that it’s our worst attack for a decade (don’t ask me to name a worse one though!)

I guess that increases your chances of winning the argument 😁

I see your logic about Huddersfield et al. I’m sure we could make lots of arguments about Everton 😁

Under FFP you can lose £5 million a season but this rises to £13 million with owner ‘contributions’. This is assessed over a three year period so essentially you can lose £15 million (or £39 million) over this period. Owner contributions must be in the form equity, which ‘on paper’ increases the value of the club (they’re clearly not going to get all their money back!). I don’t know if this is the reason for this injection but it’s why they usually do it.

Huddersfield Town?

It’s to add equity to the club (not debt). In our case, this is usually done to comply with the FFP regulations as the money owners can contribute has to be in the form of equity.

As with many things in life, success is more important than size. I guess you still get the debate as to what defines success, is it purely trophies won or does, for example, qualifying for Europe count? You also get the discussion around whether success from ‘before your time’ counts or not eg. ‘ Sure your club’s won x FA cups but they were all before (insert world event here)’

A couple of further questions if you don’t mind… You’ve mentioned the rigidity of the system in respect to each position having specific expectations but was there any fluidity in terms of players switching positions with each other during the match? I’m thinking of things like the outside forwards swapping flanks. Do you know whether ‘keepers starting to wear gloves was because of a rule change or because the rules never prohibited it and eventually someone just decided to give it a go? Thank you

Surely you can see the contradiction.

Brilliant, thank you so much for taking the time to share this. 😀👍

It doesn’t matter what your tactics or mindset are, if your execution is this bad the Aussies will take advantage.

It was said entirely in jest 😀
