I’ll tell you what - the Wigan debacle makes you count your lucky stars.
As bad as fawaz was - at least admin wasn’t on the cards!
Last year despite a difficult start they pulled themselves out of the mire to be skanked by the owner and efl. I really hope that they manage to pull a squad together and get out of admin. Clubs should rally round and offer free loans - we could give them clough, heffump and bong. No one else would have them and were paying them anyway!

Bit harsh on the other 23 clubs in the league if we loan them players at no cost.

Yes, Wigan would have benefited twice from financial doping.
RE: Glass Half Full Or Half Empty - Sabricadabra - 11-09-2020
My predictions:
Forest will finish top 6
Brentford will finish lower this season, top 10
Stoke will be top 4
Norwich top 2

Stoke and Norwich to watch out for. Watford too.
Forest's strengthening suggests def' top 6 with a top 2 push. But the Championship doesn't always work out like that.
Depends on if the incomings have the desired effect and if recruitment finish what they started. Winger. CM. Getting that CH over the line. Another(?) LB?

So 5 of the parachute payment clubs & Brentford.
The sooner Rick Parry sorts out the terrible parachute payment distortion the better.
RE: Glass Half Full Or Half Empty - Sabricadabra - 11-09-2020
Parachute payments were updated a couple of years ago.
In the 2017-18 season the Premier League paid £243m in Parachute Payments split amongst 8 clubs, and £100m in Solidarity Payments split amongst the remaining 64 clubs.

Listening to the price of football podcast the other day, I think they said the tv revenue split was 50%-25%-12.5%-12.5% amongst the top 4 divisions pre-Premier League.
Now the top division gets about 85% of the money and League 2 less than 1%.
