• Why is it the media seem to have it in for us. The same with the Football authorities too. Time for Andy to have a word. No PM interviews unless press and madia coverage of EFC improves for the better.1 Sometimes I think the RS are behind it all. They would ;like nothing better than have the city become a one club city....

• Steve, thanks for sharing. Unfortunately, I don’t think we will need to concern ourselves with UEFA SCR requirements in calendar year 2027. Ian, I am baffled by the disconnect. Why did Kinnear set such positive expectations in his media round of interviews? Did TFG’s views change in the last 2 weeks of the season? Agree, I cannot fathom it....

• Just baffles me, Steve.rnrnI was never expecting to sign £100m players, just a bit of backing.

• Agree Steve and Ian Esk comes across as a dour accountant wanting factual data and concrete baselines. Think even if we got Richi and Bilo we would still be in a good SCR place. A point to note is how UEFA work their SCR process. They are calendar year and Prem is season focused. So for example if we qualify for Europe for the 27/28 season. UEFA will look at calendar year 2027 - meaning it will be at 31st December 2027 we need to be below the 70% theshold for our financials to be what Kinnear said was "Sustainable". We therefore have to be clear by the end of the Summer window say 1st September 2027 - but we will know if we qualified what we need to do in trading terms. UEFA then do their assessments mid 2028 and look back and then fine or whatever. Further there is no point unless you are in the botom half to focus on the Premier League 85% - all clubs in UEFA competitions are in the 70% space. So any of the big boys aiming for Champions League, Europa League and Conference - ...
