Genie Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Sweet strike by Joe, we could have done with that finishing yesterday. So many limp shots straight at the keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhyscartwright_avfc Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I saw a stat before yesterday's games that they had had the most shots in the division but had scored the joint least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Possibly crappest team in division. Have had a good start but no wins or goals and little points Automatic relegation for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said further up the page they have already played as well as they ever will in that game against Swansea. They have started the marathon running the first 400 metres like Michael Johnson and will be gassing soon for the rest of the season.

Popular Post BOF Posted September 7, 2018 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted September 7, 2018 Birmingham City facing 12-point deduction after breaking EFL spending rules Quote Birmingham City are facing the prospect of being hit with a huge 12-point deduction for breaking rules on spending, in a landmark case for the English Football League. Garry Monk’s Championship club could be struck with the unprecedented punishment this season after the EFL agreed on the proposed sanctions this week. Birmingham are understood to be in deep trouble for breaching profitability and sustainability rules, with the EFL determined to adopt a tough stance by pushing for a deduction of up to 12 points and a heavy fine. Rival Championship clubs have also complained over Birmingham’s £2m signing of Danish left-back Kristian Pedersen while under a transfer embargo. Pedersen was signed from Union Berlin in June despite the club operating under a “soft” embargo, leading to the EFL later admitting in a statement that they were “exceptionally disappointed”. Birmingham’s hearing is likely to be in the next two months and the club, owned by Trillion Trophy Asia, is expected to contest any sanctions. A verdict will then be delivered by an independent panel, possibly before Christmas, with the EFL and clubs pushing for a “game-changing punishment”. Telegraph Sport understands the possible points deduction could even be imposed this season, which would throw Monk’s campaign into further turmoil. Birmingham were hit with an embargo at the end of last season after exceeding the permitted losses of £39m over a three-year period. In August they had to agree a business plan with the EFL in August after the embargo was partially lifted. That allowed Monk to sign five players in the summer transfer window, but the plan restricted him to only free transfers or low-cost loans on wages under £10,000 a week. If Birmingham are found guilty, it would be the toughest punishment yet for a English club. Queens Park Rangers agreed a £42m settlement with the EFL in January and accepted an embargo for the next transfer window after overspending in the 2013-14 season. Bournemouth and Leicester have also reached cash settlements for breaching FFP regulations, but a points deduction for Birmingham would be the most severe sanction. Birmingham are currently 20th in the Championship and still waiting for their first league win of the season under Monk, who was appointed as manager in March. A club spokesperson said: “We are complying with everything required under the imposed EFL business plan.” 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not an expert on this, but I can only guess that the main difference is that small heath were told not to sign anyone and they did anyway, which is different to Villa’s situation. Essentially Villa would have gotten themselves into trouble and would have to sell players/pay fines next summer in order to comply (ala QPR), whereas blues have done something that the Football League explicitly told them not to. I think? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimzk5 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Whilst we could find ourselves in similar predicament if we don't go up, I will say what did they expect when they let Harry redknapp run the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
