[Sky Blue Wozza]

Ah during the period I was pretending football above L1 doesn’t exist.

Yeah, we had other worries!

Do they have a gold kit because they won L1?

Tinpot.

As much as I’d love that to be the reason its an anniversary year for them

People are making really good points
Some clubs have class and I’d like to think we do
It’s a disgrace that owners can destroy 100’s of years of history and we should call them out all of them

Does open up some questions around tickets etc.

If you have an outstanding payment from SW could you refuse to give them tickets for away games because you have reasonable belief that you won't be paid? Similarly if you're owed money could you receive tickets and then refuse to give SW any money for them to offset the money they owe you?

The worst debt in football to have is to another football club closely followed by players not being paid. Then you have the taxman.

If they can't cover what they owe to other clubs they might as well give up now. The problem is if they have used SWFC as collateral. It could mean they can't afford to run the club and can't afford to sell for what it's worth.

Shit to be fair at the time I took a quick glance on twitter after lunch so probably from yesterday the headline I saw, their owner is a nutter and shouldn't be running a football club

Demarai Gray has re-signed for Blues.

TBF that could be a good signing for them, he's a decent player albeit not been at the top of his game for a bit

 

[fernandopartridge]

Hull's owner is a bit unstable, I wouldn't be surprised if he's trying it on by not paying a perceived rich club a loan fee.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Reading a bit more about it they owed Villa £1m for Louie Barry's loan last season (he hardly played). I'd imagine that Hull have tried to lump payment of that fee in with a proposed transfer fee (with or without Villa's consent), the deal has fallen apart and Villa has reported them.

 

[wingy]

Hmm,Philogene comes to mind?

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

that’s the bottom 2 sorted already….

Good that we play them first, as you'd assume that will hamper their recruitment, even if they manage to get the ban lifted. Can't imagine clubs would want to deal with them, nor players want to get involved, if they appear to be in the mire, financially.

 

[SleepyGinger]

Couldn’t really ask for a better first game than Hull at home

I hadn't realised that they were late paying the players a couple of months back too.

And there’s the kiss of death…

 

[wingy]

Good job we didn't get a fee on Kasey.

 

[Liquid Gold]

There is a little bit of schadenfreude about Hull given that their fans were all over socials giving it the bigger after spunking loads on out of reach loan players a couple years ago.

100% this. Anyone could have seen it coming.
