At this moment in time there manager is going to Newcastle. He has got form for doing this did the same when he was at the blades. They have also sold part of the stadium for 38 million to stave of a points deduction what a mess they are in. There are a few clubs in the Championship that have done this. The debts these clubs are running up are going to send them into liquidation look at Bolton there is a lot more of that to happen. As I I have said on this site on many occasions I will never criticise our chairman on how he runs the club. Sooner be in our position I will have a go at the manager players because we help pay there wages.
Wednesday are in a real mess. Their accounts published yesterday - months late - raise more questions than they answer. On the face of it they might avoid a further breach of FFP rules because on paper the sale of the ground means that they made a small profit. What isn't clear is who they sold the ground to and whether it was a real transaction as opposed to a purely accounting exercise. There is no change of ownership of the property at the Land Registry and no evidence yet of the club having actually received the money (although there may well be explanations for that - they knew it would come under scrutiny so surely it is all above board). According to the Star, Wednesday are still spending £160 for every £100 income they have, which is commercial suicide, and have sold the (rusty) family silver to buy themselves some breathing space. Unless they manage to find a way into the Premier League, it is difficult to see it ending well. It is something I know has been covered on here often, but how can the football authorities allow this to go on?

Never want to see any club go under, but there are certain clubs where the attitude of the fans makes you happy to see them struggle......top of that list is Pigs, there fans are so arrogant, living in the past and disrespectful to other teams in the area.
