    Wasn’t it Derby selling the ground same as Sheffield Wednesday. If I remember correctly it hasn’t finished yet

    Derby got away with it after their breach of FFP was dismissed... and I think Wednesday lost their case

    Derby are a prime example of why salary caps are being brought in. In my opinion a poorly run club with nothing to show for the efforts but wasted millions. They have no clear strategy to what theyre trying to achieve other than to spunk money away. The sale of their ground was nothing short of a disgrace.

    But they have a wealthy benefactor so all is well for Derby for the time being!

    ps The owner earned most of his fortune from Candy Fecking Crush!

    Yep. Very influential in the EFL and rumoured to have some dirt on key members.

    Not really relevant to the point made. The more money you have personally the more you borrow. I didn't understand it until a guy involved in economics showed me why. To be fair i still don't really.

    Thanks How, made my point for me. Guilty as sin and no punishment even though they inflated value of stadium way above the Owls who have been punished.

    I imagine most weeks 7 or 8 of the starting xi will have already been here before. I’d say it’s very similar?
