Members Rudy Posted July 12, 2020 Members Share Posted July 12, 2020 Wasn’t Villas wage bill about £75m before they went up? But at least they went up. Wigan are going to have to do some serious offloading and hope they can sign a load of free agents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The usual two season push for promotion with parachute payments. Fail and end up like hull, Boro and stoke battling relegation . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwfc2003 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Joe Williams, but their wages are high by Championship standards. Was that the tosser we had on loan from Everton - and they are saying his wage is high?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would his wages be high by championship standards if he came from Everton youth via a loan spell with us? You'd think he'd be at the lower end of the pay scale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e2e4 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 (edited) thing i dont get is, when leeds took the points , they got done for gaming the system and got re-penalised the season after.. im sure they came up with a rule saying if its before march then it applies that season , but if after then it applies the next.. its july.. they went into admin after theyd played 40 games, which iirc is two games too late (last thursday in march is 38 games) for it to apply this season. maybe its an accounts (end of year) thing rather than a 'progress of the season' thing , but thats not what they sed when they did leeds twice. seems strangely unfair if youre barnsley or whoever, if barnsley or hull went into admin tomorrow, would the same thing apply ? (the 'this season or next season' deduction) Edited July 12, 2020 by e2e4 added extra sentence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(the 'this season or next season' deduction) Think Leeds got done was because they went into admin after being relegated with a few games left to play, so -12 didn't make any difference Though seem to remember them getting done for -15, maybe for being cheeky cunts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(the 'this season or next season' deduction) They went into admin the day after the Stoke match. On the original fixture list the Stoke match would have been played on the 21st March, so 4 days before the 4th Thursday in March. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bolton va va Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Just seen that there are potential point deductions coming up for Brum & Sheff Wednesday which could help Wiggin out. Not good news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prem has an awful awful lot to answer for, the temptation to get in leaves clubs gambling and risking everything for a massive pay off.

Jol_BWFC Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 It is very depressing. That said, this is their easiest fixture of the run in. It’s not totally inconceivable that they could lose the next two. Fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
