QPR FFP Dispute

The club owners should be ashamed of themselves. Surely they must have someone within the club that knows the EFL rules and how much you can spend compared with income. It really is a joke and if we get a fine as reported then we will end up further down the league than Luton did.
Seriously is the sort of thing you don't expect your club to be getting in trouble over. Muppets

 

They said the fine of 58m is fair. I think if that's what it is it's enough to send us down to the 2nd div. (if we're lucky)

 

What happens if our illustrious owners pay the fine and not the football club, will that still make us guilty of FFP and liable to further penalties

 

Some of the scenarios which spring to mind are really horrible. The board need to communicate pretty clearly with the fans on this, but I doubt they will.

I wonder how much they have wasted on lawyers.

its the club, not the owners which is being fined. As the club has no money and runs on a deficit, it clearly can’t pay the fine, even if it is tiny compared to the speculation. Everything depends on the owners, being willing to take this on if the appeal fails.

Roller says that FFP fines are not included in future FFP calculations. So we just need to find up to £60m down the back of the sofa.

 

are Bournemouth not going down the same road?

 

We just need to get promoted to the PL and stay there.

 

Accept the outcome as a trial at first instance (as opposed to a mediation, which is not binding).

But the arbitration decision must surely be appealable to the Court of Appeal

 

And Leicester, but whilst they are still in the PL the EFL can't touch them. I would imagine Wolves will be up **** creek if they don't make it up this season....

 

Sadly we won't under the current manager. We wasted 2 great chances while we were there.

 

If we had a manager who could get us right up the leaderboard, we could tell the FA to stick the fine up their jumpers, declare bankruptcy, suffer the points deduction ........... and still manage to stay in the Championship.

Its all Holloways fault!

 

So we may end up in administration points deductions sell the 2/3 players that have any value and end up relegated, oh happy days

 

Come back Bernie & Flav, all is forgiven...

 

pay up and look big

 

Sorry to point out the obvious, but the punishment for clubs in a bad financial position is to put them in an even worse financial position? That seems like a warped way of working in my book. Yes we've spent more than we should have, yes, we've been managed badly, but hitting us with a big fine will only make things worse. If the powers that be really cared about the state of football clubs, they'd install auditors/monitors who would look over the finances and give recommendations, even compulsory recommendations, about how to improve the situation.

A fine will only make a bad situation worse and put more money in the pockets of the pot managed by The English Football League. I reckon we just say no, fight it in the hope we get promoted, then tell em to piss off with with their fine.

 

Holy Christ!!

 

Exactly.

 

So, can some of the more brilliant minds on here (no, not you Strolls!) tell me whether this means we are going to go into administration and or get a points deduction?
