This isn't for overspending; it's for not paying transfer installments on time by the looks of things. Of course, that could've been related to cashflow problems caused by overspending, but Sheffield United claim it was because other clubs were late paying them.

Okay - but it's deeply unfair to whichever other club they're shafting by not paying agreed transfer installments on time. Lets hope Forest are paying up in a timely fashion for Omobamidele and Everton for Godfrey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And if you can’t work out tv money and parachute money they will bank then that’s your issue! as in "eh £200m ?" Never mind. Let's have a look at this supposed £200m in the bank. Might I point out that contrary to your belief parachute payments are not paid in advance. They are paid over the course of the season they fall due - 2 years in this case. The same as with TV money', this season which I would suggest Sheff Utd have already spent/committed. So again, not in the bank. So there is no £200m in the bank as you claimed. And I doubt any club has that sort of money in the bank. I haven't been issued with anything either, though a hefty bank loan might help, if any of them are daft enough to oblige ☺️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So yes you’re being a pedantic troll as usual and that’s why not many engage with you. It’s far better when you’re not around, shame you’re back in a new guise! Still I’ll do what I did when you trolled under your other guises and block you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s tiresome. It might not be so bad if all this antagonism was backed up by correct facts. In most cases it seems to be press keyboard first then engage brain. Who can forget that howler when he was adamant that a Norwich match being streamed wasn’t being shown by a particular provider when the company logo was visible in the corner of the screen. Hilarious. He’s his own worst enemy is City 1st. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
