Re: Charlton Athletic
It used to be because it was a cash cow. In the old days only half the turnstiles got counted for the takings. Even in Hearn's era you'd here a crowd figure and think really? We'd be 500 from capacity and we had 6800 according to the announcer.
These days it must be a combination of the meglamania and the pipe dream of premiership gold.

Re: Charlton Athletic
Apparently the ceo has authorised the leasing of a fleet of range rovers and property in knightsbridge. That among other things has pissed off the majority shareholder, if it's TRUE I have no idea. It's also interesting that the majority shareholder has not yet passed the fit and proper persosns test at the efl.
Why were they allowed to take over without such satisfactions being granted by the league? Sounds like incompetence at the efl for allowing this to happen.

It's not incompetence on behalf of EFL it's the law of the land.

Re: Charlton Athletic
Yes it's the law of the land.
But the EFL could change the laws of the EFL. Then this wouldn't be happening.

Re: Charlton Athletic
That only clubs owned by fit and proper persons are able to compete in their league.

Re: Charlton Athletic
Oh my lord, you are hysterical. The word we seemed to clash over was 'effective' so just to be clear this word has 3 syllables, not 1. Yet again, you have proven to be irredeemably and unremittingly STUPID (hope that's not too many long words for you)spen666 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 10, 2020 3:00 pmEH16 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 10, 2020 2:13 pmI hate to derail a good argument with, like, actual real facts but if you READ your OWN initial post even you should be able to see that you didn't say any such thing initially.

And if a club says to the EFL they will not agree to the demands of the EFL....the only sanction is expulsion ...which is what I said.
Fine the club doesn't force it to change directors. Deduct points doesn't force it to change directors
the only effective sanction is expulsion which will almost certainly bring about the demise of the club
which is what I said initially
Sorry,
I never realized that you were so stupid I had to spell everything out in words of one syllable. I never realized you were unable to develop thoughts for yourself and had to be spoon fed.
I did not use the word effective because anyone with half a brain cell would realize that it is pointless debating what ineffective sanction should be imposed. If you know an action is ineffective, then no sensible person would consider it a sanction. I added it into my response because it became apparent that
I was dealing with someone stupid enough to need me to spell it out for them
