And I can't understand those that seem desperate for the new guy to come in and throw money around
Now you've pointed out that the option was available then yes I'd agree it was.
Going of the EFL's narrow parameters around administration though I don't think our case was exceptional enough to warrant them doing that for the first administration case, as gutted as I am about that.
When they were appealing I assumed that there was some secret weapon up their sleeve that nobody knew about or some twist on interpreting the rules so was really disappointed when their wasn't and it just felt like a massive waste of time and more importantly money
"massive waste of time and more importantly money ".......so so easy to say with the benefits of hindsight. Majority of fans imo would have been in uproar if we hadn't appealed regardless of the cost...I certainly would have.
So easy to be critical once the outcome / verdict is know n I'm not so sure that many fans thot that the clubs legal team had some secret weapon up their sleeve. I thought the decision to appeal was based on the legal team thinking they had a very strong case/ argument to overturn the points deduction...as it turned out we didn't but would have been gutted if we hadn't tried.
