kirksandallowl Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 Makes you wonder if they could be struggling financially. I know they get some of their income from levies on the clubs, for example gate receipts, transfer fees etc. Not sure what percentage it makes up but they will definitely have taken a hit.
Ian Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 Just had a very brief poke through their last posted accounts......best part of £6 million for “website development costs”....any web guru’s out their have a view on that figure?

That's not true surely?? A decent web team for a big shopping website would cost under 200k per year to manage thousands of transactions a day, re-design the site and do active sales and marketing. £6m would be enough to set up from scratch rival website to Tesco or the like (minus the actual products and delivery etc). The EFl website could be run for under £100k a year I'd say. Unless it's about iFollow...

Leaping Lannys Perm Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 Incredible. If it was a script in a movie, no-one would be able to suspend their disbelief.
i used to be sc_owl Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 It's so strange that the biggest sport on the planet has such poor governance.
asteener1867 Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 Bloody ludicrous organisation On a BBC news report the other week, a spokesman said they would not give out the names of clubs under embargo , to safeguard yadayada yada, although clubs names had been mentioned. This is supposedly to look after clubs , players and supporters etc. Now hark back to when Wednesday were last under an embargo....Owls fans found this out just after it was lifted. These same Owls fans had also bought season tickets while unaware Wednesday were under embargo, meaning they might well have thought Wednesday were going to buy new players etc...not that they may well get a points deduction and sign sod all. I would say the fans of these clubs have a bloody right to know whether the following season is going to be the abject crap we have had, before forking out their hard earned cash on a bloody forlorn hope....The EFL do a massive disservice to football supporters with this nonsense
Pablo Bonvin Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 I always think that one of the very worst traits in anyone or any organisation is hypocrisy.

flo Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 Not sure how we can embargo them when they don't sign players but yes we should embargo them.
Mr. Tom Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 it should be wrapped in used nappies and fired directly into the sun 1
