So why haven't the EFL announced any punishment if any? What's the hold up and reasons behind it?
Been thinking long and hard about this and have come to the conclusion that any points deduction, will not be announced until the season is over.
Why? For the so called 'integrity' of the Championship. They want all teams to compete fairly on the pitch, they do not want teams fighting for their lives coming up against teams already on the beach. It seems that every day there is a game that can affect the relegation places from the Championship.
If Wednesday are given a 12 point deduction now, how will that effect the players moral? How will teams like Boro, Birmingham and Huddersfield react knowing that they are virtually safe - especially if they're playing teams below them who aren't? And all three are playing Clubs below them in the league.
Just makes any redevelopment more difficult.
How many Archibald Leitch (Archibald Leach was Cary Grant) stands are still kicking around? He designed dozens throughout the UK
Goodison, Craven Cottage, Selhurst Park, Fratton Park, Ibrox, Villa Park?
Sorry, but that's not correct.
It really does depend on what the local plan for Hillsborough is. If it is purely for use as a sports club, then the ground would have a very low valuation for redevelopment as it could take years to get planning permission for housing. Not a cats chance in hell would any significant high rise development be allowed. The cost to demolish and decontaminate the land prior to construction would probably be in the region of £5m before you even dug the first trench.
I would value Hillsborough as it is now - a football stadium. With the amount of money required to modernise it I would suggest that value would be no higher than £25m.
The actual wording is "Source and sufficiency of funding".
It's not just proving you've actually got the funding, but proving that it's from a legitimate source.
Are you telling me it's not been known for both those professions to be economical with the actuality when it benefits their clients?
The audit watchdog handed out fines of £32.2m across the industry as a whole in 2019. And don't think the 'Big 4' get away with it either as they were fined £16.4m of that.
