I think 'underdogs' is better, 'under dogs' sounds a bit, well, you know... |  |

Uncle 'Arry already lined up to beg for more funds to help with next season's promotion push no doubt. I wonder if their fans are bemoaning a lack of investment in the team. |  |

£11m on two back up strikers, on top of £6m Tom lawrence.
How did he scrape into the play offs with such a shabby team?! |  |

Was a good job that they were able to sell their ground for £80 million, double its book value ...,..,.,,,, to their owner. Handy that it wrote off a potential debt and kept them withing FFP rules.
Maybe they can overspend yet again next year and sell the four corner flags for 30 million and show another profit.
Not saying some teams play outside the rules.... |  | | |

If it's that far overvalued, there may still be trouble to come from it. You're not allowed to evade FFP by things like unrealistically high sponsorship by your own organisation. That sale sounds pretty similar. |  |

If only FFP had any bite though.
I suspect they would be fined about £5000 for it probably.
Maybe a transfer embargo but those don't seem to have hurt the clubs to have suffered them too badly do they? | |

None of the teams in the Play Offs could be classed as underdogs in money terms. Leeds have probably spent the least of the four but I doubt their squad was cheaply assembled |  |

Points deductions are surely the only way to go, break the rules? Fine, you'll now be facing a handicap to make up for your unfair advantage. |  |

Indeed, what is a fine to a team with loads of money. You could simply factor the fine in as another transfer fee essentially?
What's a couple of million to a club who that are prepared to throw £10 - 20 million at promotion? |  |

Frank Lampards Derby. They seem to be quite happy to be known as that and FL seems beyond criticism by their supporters. Personally, I think they underachieved, given the side he inherited wasn’t that bad and the money he spent. Reminds me a bit of when Bryan Robson went into management. He was ‘learning’, great player commanding respect as a young manager, just needs a bit of time and ££ etc etc until people realised he was actually hopeless. Maybe FL is the real deal and Derby will make it this year or next and my doubts proved wrong. It will be interesting. |  | | |

They have sacked previous managers for not getting into the play-offs repeatedly. He has scraped in where others have failed.
We will probably see whether they class losing the play-offs as equal failure. The amount of money them and Bristol City have thrown at promotion, I think their owners will be disappointed. | |

Lawrence must be looking at a 2 game ban for successful deception of a match official surely?
Would miss both legs v Leeds. | | | |
