If we make it out of the goings on of the last 8/9 years without a points deduction then it is actually a miracle.
Absolutely. If this was another club we'd be screaming for punishments, regardless of regime changes and so on. Can only hope it all comes out at once and there's not just a constant dripping out of this shit. Still, we might get to play Chelsea in the Conference next year! |

Was this the Flitcroft season? Where we were on track for Play offs, he got pinched by Mansfield and we then tanked?

When some claimed we didn't want to get promoted, maybe they were right, albeit not directly for the reason they thought
Are we sure Power didn't have another one of these agreements in the Preston play off season?  |

Maybe we should embrace it and only sign players and staff with a criminal record. Build on the Australian connection.

Imagining the scene where Lee Power is sat in a room with Roman Abramovich, explaining the concept of the magic roundabout

I see Chelsea are adopting the ‘Nuffin’ to do with us, Guv’ approach. Similar to ours I suspect
‘ Abramovich chose not to return requests for comment on the article, but Chelsea have issued a response in the report.
A spokesperson for the club said: “These allegations pre-date the club’s current ownership. They are based on documents which the club has not been shown and do not relate to any individual who is presently at the club."
However, the owners were aware during the purchasing process of “potentially incomplete financial reporting concerning historical transactions during the club’s previous ownership”.
They added: “Immediately following the completion of the purchase, the club proactively self-reported these matters to all applicable football regulators.
“In accordance with the club’s ownership group’s core principles of full compliance and transparency, the club has proactively assisted the applicable regulators with their investigations and will continue to do so.”

I look forward to Clem making us an enemy of Russia with whatever statement he ends up putting out. Offer them out for a scrap. |

You’ve got to admire Power. He ran a football club using other people’s money entirely.
Just what was in it for Abramovich? I can’t think of any benefit to him at all.

Fair play though, I thought there was no way STFC could continue to entertain us like this but secret funding from a Russian Oligarch has blown that thought out of the water

Who had ‘Roman Abramovich used Swindon Town to launder payments’ on their bingo card oh ffs. When will it all end (I don't mean the club). so the loan may or may not have broken the rules, but but declaring it did. Brilliant |
