Hope they get to the final and Dewsbury-Hall loses them a shootout
Hope they get to the final and Dewsbury-Hall loses them a shootoutI can’t wait for their day of reckoning. Let’s hope they finish 3rd and fail in the play offs
But if they go up and manage to stay up they'll get away with it, just hope they don't go up but they have a fairly easy run inJust read a headline figure of 4 million on wages per WEEK!!!!!!
Sickening amount of money.
Scandalous that nothing can be done this season.
From The Athletic article on it. How fucking delusional can you get? Essentially "we overstretched and didn't expect to go back to being shit so quickly".
"In the accounts...the club admits it may have breached profit and sustainability rules, but believes there should be mitigation considered because of how unexpected and unique their rapid decline was. Before relegation, they had won the Premier League, the FA Cup and competed in three European campaigns."
With any justice:The period between them winning the league and relegation was longer / the same as some teams it has happened to historically. They are not some extraordinary outlier:
Blackburn 4 years
Aston Villa 7 years
Derby County 6 years
Manchester United 7 years
Ipswich Town 3 years
I would accept all their titles being stripped in lieu of relegationSuper lawyers might save them
They will probably continue their streak as the luckiest club in English football and sneak into the autos yet. But if they don’t, and KDH ‘does a Dabo’…This, I like. Can’t wait for the day he ditches them.
after or before we lost to them in the 1st day of the season, winks did an interview stating that if he had a good season he wouldn’t rule out making the England squad for the euros. Jeez…. The delusion
This new independent regulator should have access to monthly management accounts.Yep, 100%.
Bear in mind these accounts include the £110m they received for Fofana & Maddison. They clearly have no intention of cutting their cloth either with signings like Winks, Coady, Cannon etc. they're just intent to keep on cheating.

When it shows they are losing what they are and bring in winks on £80k and paying Vardy £120k a week they should be told no signings and sale forced.
It’s absurd that they can distort the league this much.
Astonishing that despite making a profit on player trading of £75m, they still posted a loss of £89.7mYep, 100%.

And apparently again this season we have one of the lowest budgets in the divisionWe spent £15.6m on salaries in 2022 and we are supposed to compete with this bullshit?
I thought it was bat shit we lost £6.7m but apparently that's just a drop in the ocean.And apparently again this season we have one of the lowest budgets in the division
A month's wages for them lot!!We spent £15.6m on salaries in 2022 and we are supposed to compete with this bullshit?
Yep...and reap the financial bonuses for doing so. Likely come back down, but they will have cheated their way to more money, which will help. Then you have Luton town, who will more than likely be playing back in the Championship having managed themselves very well.So will the EFL do anything? Will they fuck.
They will be allowed to gamble on going up again.
If they get promoted they’re also apparently obligated to buy Fatawu for £15 million, at a time when they’ll be needing to offload anyone they can.Problem Leicester have even if they go up is they need a whole new back 5 to be competitive . Where they are going to find money to add to a very average squad is going to be hard and they only really have Dewsbury-Hall and Mavadidi left as saleable assets
Just insane and completely shit management, so arrogant not to put the right clauses in contracts or just ignore that they are there and keep spending the money. It's about time some of the richer clubs that these were supposedly designed to curtail got the book thrown at them.A month's wages for them lot!!
Leicester City FC....Thanks and Good bye.
Look forward to seeing Leicester City AFC in the Championship in 2050. Please keep to white shorts with the navy tops as was Leicester City FC's tradition. Be a nice nod back to the past.

Even then without swift action they would just yo yo. Need to be relegated and be able to give massive points deduction with no chance of promotion for at least 3 seasons, make it a real deterrent. Also stop the ‘loyalty payments’ to all relegated clubs.Could the conceivably go up, get a points deduction from the PL, come back down, get a points deduction from the EFL?
Not sure points deductions are working as a deterrent, especially when it only equates to one or two wins. The FA and EFL might have to start thinking about relegation being a bigger deterrent
I can't see anyone taking a chance on Faes cause he is fucking ponyIf they get promoted they’re also apparently obligated to buy Fatawu for £15 million, at a time when they’ll be needing to offload anyone they can.
Can’t see anyone taking a chance on players like Faes with the wages they’re apparently on.
Makes you wonder if they’re even planning on complying and are hoping to just eat point deductions.
They're not going to go bust
Man City 1 yearThe period between them winning the league and relegation was longer / the same as some teams it has happened to historically. They are not some extraordinary outlier:
Blackburn 4 years
Aston Villa 7 years
Derby County 6 years
Manchester United 7 years
Ipswich Town 3 years
They did it in one year in 37/38.With any justice:
Man City 2 years
Had a look, they scored 80 goals in 42 games. West Brom came bottom and scored 74!They did it in one year in 37/38.
Straight down after winning title in 36/37
They had the small crumb of comfort on being HIGHEST scoring team in the league that season despite their relegation!!!!
