If the 125% isn’t in the account on time I think -8 points is the least of our worries.
I think they (the EFL) will set a deadline for the money to be put in the account (like 31 May) or we don’t start next season. It really is that serious.
For once, it’s hard to knock the EFL over all this. The extra 3 points being deducted from 22-23 could very well have been put on 23-24 with the other 4 points.
This week will be pivotel and likely not in a good way. Anyone not worried by now isn’t paying attention!
We dodged a bullet having 3 points deducted from 22-23 season instead of putting it on 23-24. The EFL will never have a human face, but maybe it’s shown it’s human voice…
AL Jasmi needs to fork out by 24th May or there will be real trouble. Just saying
Not sure what the score is if the deposit account isn’t funded by 24th May AND the June wage payment isn’t made on time. Will that be 2 lots of -4?
The club statement says “the EFL has visibility of this amount”
As per Mr B above, we’re none the wiser whether the EFL have accepted it. We’re not much further forward until we hear from the EFL about further penalties and/or restrictions.
I read a comment “elsewhere” that 2000 have been sold so far. (7000 last season total?). I suspect the number sold since last Friday could be counted on one hand. Reported that some have asked for their money back since.
FWIW I bought mine on 29th April, just before relegation was officially confirmed. Paid in full by credit card.
If I hadn’t bought it before 5th May, I wouldn’t have bought it at all until the club’s future is clearer.Sad times. What’s far worse is it’s largely self-inflicted by the owner and his puppet.
Yes, there were all sorts of wicked rumours doing the rounds last night around Administration and even worse, Pollard buying the ground.
Pollard can’t afford to run the ground. If he could, he would have got his vulturing hands on it 3 years ago.
Administration? Sadly yes that’s coming very soon I fear. It’s clear if Al Jasmi has pulled the plug that the club cannot pay it’s day to day running costs and the coffers are empty. The Directors have legal obligations under the Companies Act and will have to act very soon in the absence of further investment.
Happy 10th Anniversary everyone…
I fear the same. Maloney obviously knows more than us, but probably not a lot more, but he sounded a broken man in that radio interview last night.
Now we’re hearing talk of 10% of the club being sold to a crypto firm. FFS where will this end? Might as well put the future of the club on the 3.30 at Haydock
When will we hear our latest punishment from the EFL? I think we will not be allowed to start next season unless the money is proven to be in the escrow account soon
Club statement finally released

Sounds like they’re in the dark as well. Has Al Jasmi pulled the plug?
What an utter shite show, just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse.
The rank and file followers have been very patient, perhaps heeding the advice not to burn the bridge when you’re standing on it.
Well the bridge IS on fire. I hope there are protests on Monday. The message to Talal and his cronies needs to be clear…get the feck out of our club NOW
I don’t know about Wyke, but most of us will have a drink problem after watching that pile of old f*nny.
We know the squad isn’t Championship standard (not sure which is Fletcher’s league tbh) but if we’d played a League 2 side today in a must win game they would have surely had more of a go than us?
Season Tickets on sale tomorrow; what an advert it was today
On that note I’ll get back to my Shiraz
Refusing to play will be the next step.
They’ve had enough and who could blame them.If I hadn’t been paid after 2 weeks I wouldn’t be working.
Indie Latics have launched Phase 2…
Not sure whether it will do any good, but collectively we will not stand idly by and watch our club die by a thousand cuts.
Going nicely on #WAFC. Make the Board listen and take note. Keep the Faith!
