I've no doubt that the budget was competitive. The squad was huge, didn't we have 7 first team centre backs and half a dozen wingers at the start of the season? Brett, Brett, Brett, Brett Pitman, Brett Pitman would have been on a decent wad, as would DJ, could be half a mil between those 2.
Other teams just spent better and didn't end up with a hopelessly unbalanced squad and the worst goalkeeper in the football league.
Sheridan then added the icing on the cake. He would have put an average squad on a downward trajectory, but we had a poor one full of sicknotes.
Sunderland, Blackpool etc would have been over the cap having signed players before cap came into force.
Probably pissed with some of the team selections. Mind you watching that garbage last season and the lies from the owner is enough to turn anyone to drink. 2 more weeks and another Court Room appearance. Meanwhile back at the circus the season ticket campaign is well under way with the only tried and tested formula from the club - silence.

And no sponsors rewards for two seasons now. Way to inspire loyalty.

We were above (just) the relegation zone with two games in had when Wellens left - won 3 and lost 5. A few games later and we were close to mid table having made up those games in hand, won 5, drew 1 and lost 8, carrying on similar form of sorts. We were running at more than a point a game, enough to keep us up, and with a few more months to work with that original squad and a January window to come, I think Wellens would have done enough to keep us up. He takes some blame on the recruitment side, that is for sure, but he didn't fuck up the Smith situations, he didn't flog DJ and he didn't take us from 16 points after 14 games to 30 more points in the next 32 games.
Ultimate blame is at Power's doorstep for the situation he has engineered. Jewell can take some blame - even if it's not being as involved as he should have been (I imagine he was still heavily involved). Wellens gets blame for not changing recruitment approach given the unique circumstances of the season. Sheridan can take a shit load for just being shit and not walking, regardless of his personal situation. Players can take some blame as well. See, everyone gets some.
Not disputing any of that, except the DJ bit. He had a transfer clause in his contract that he could leave if the amount was met, which it obviously was. Having clauses like that is the only way many clubs at our level are able to sign certain players with potential.

Unsurprisingly, there is no sign of the annual accounts - which are due to be published now. Presume that comes with some kind of penalty.
Gellaw 458, the company that owns Pride Park, were also due to publish their accounts by 31 March. They haven’t and have had notice of being wound up.

Maybe the accounts have been published - to the appropriate authorities and just not to us plebs. (I'm only guessing that that's even possible).
Perhaps somebody with the necessary wherewithal can take a look?

It often takes a while for stuff to be uploaded onto the CH website after receipt?

You've misinterpreted there. This is a dormant company in the process of being struck off and is perfectly normal. You don't have to file accounts in this situation. It doesn't look like it ever owned Pride Park Gellaw 101 did but sold it in 2017. You don't get wound up for filing accounts a couple of months late. That's only a £375 fine

The accounts for the club are 3 months late, almost certainly because of the ownership dispute, as accounts for Seebeck have been filed. That's a £750 fine and a court summons for the directors in 4-5 months or so. As long as they are filed before then no action will be taken apart from angry letters.
