Thought it deserved its own thread.

Rohl to leave today. Transfer embargo. Players not been paid and exodus. Council refuse to issue safety certificate for the north stand so no fans allowed this season. Chansiri refusing to sell for less than £100m.

Another victory for football administration

Is that really true? That’s crazy. Would no club have paid say £1m for Rohl? I’m amazed at that. Or did Wednesday keep sticking to the 5m.


That figure is according to my Wednesday mate

Shit but local

For what it’s worth, I’ve heard something very similar, although I heard £4m was his buyout.

Allegedly he held a goodbye meeting with the squad end of last season and informed Wednesday he didn’t intend to return. He’s spent the summer interviewing for every job going expecting that they’d be able to negotiate a much lower fee with Wednesday desperate for cash but Chansiri is incompetent but not totally stupid, they stuck to the £4m as their main asset. Cifuentes got the Leicester job in part because Röhl was too expensive to buyout.

Wednesday have already given his assistant Pedersen a new contract to takeover but Röhl turned up for preseason and they’d had to agree a seperation as it was unworkable going forward.

Rumour is that Textor is very close to buying them and if he does you would expect a Forest style flood of players arriving from his other clubs - Palace’s best youngster on loan and fringe players from Lyon.

I get the impression that Textor is better than Chansiri but definitely has a whiff of frying pan in to fire.

Apparently the players have been informed that they will not be getting their July wage. The rumour is players will start to refuse to play as a consequence.

There's got to be the very real possibility this lot don't even start the season, and certainly it would be amazing if they finish it as it stands.

I would hate to see them go under - they're one of the most famous clubs in the world.
My wife and I had a dear departed friend who lived on the fringe of Sheffield and we would spend time up there every year. Loved the pubs and punters inc the legendary Fat Cat.

And Burnley have had to pay for the Wednesday hotel ahead of their friendly match on the weekend apparently. Though TBF why you'd need an overnight stay is quite beyond me

Safety nets for clubs in Administration? Hmmm, HMRC in the past it seems ..... I bet Leicester City never repaid the tax Gordon Brown (upon request from Keith Vaz) let them off in 2007 when they won the Premiership a few years later!

„The best thing is to not allow owners like this to get their hands on clubs in the first place„

🎯


Owners like Chansiri? Wednesday fans were delighted with Chansiri in 2016 when they made the playoffs. Step up from Mandaric, never felt this much trust in an owner, man of integrity, really gets what we're about as a club.

The best owner in the EFL is a promotion (to raise expectations) and two relegations away from having the fans marching to the ground with his face crossed out on a banner.
