@shane_dean88@reluctantnicko Yes. No way defending Mel, but it goes back to the accounting charge around player amortisation and the EFL relentlessly pursuing it. It’s one technicality that was open to interpretation. The admin, unpaid bills and downfall of Mel were all a consequence of that charge IMO.
@reluctantnicko Fair point, maybe we need a rule that discourages spiralling borrowing in the pursuit of success. We could call it something like Financial Fair Play.
@reluctantnicko Unsellable because of the lingering threats of points deductions from the EFL maybe? Things were getting desperate by the time potential buyers were announced, who ruled themselves out before going public?
@reluctantnicko I’m no fan of Mel, but the debts might have been cleared had it been sold as an established Championship club. The threat of a points deduction played out over a number of years forced the admin, EFL played their part in that.
@reluctantnicko Your comments are normally insightful, but this doesn’t make sense. FFP is surely there to try and prevent a single club buying success with a big investment, thereby skewing the finances of the league for everyone else?
@cottagescom@Airbnb@AirbnbHelp Total waste of my time DM’ing Tom, no intention to resolve @cottagescom mistake beyond a refund and it’s tough luck. Haven’t even properly apologised! Can’t rebook anything at this late stage, so they have completely screwed us over. #avoid#noholiday
@cottagescom@Airbnb@AirbnbHelp cancelled my holiday with 6 days notice because “Extraordinary booking volumes have caused issues in our IT systems”. Not acceptable, patronising email thanking me for my understanding even less so. No alternative offered. Absolute #disgrace

@minisandfords@cottagescom I currently believe that if we can identify more than 3 cancellations due to the “IT issue” @cottagescom will have broken @Airbnb host policies and should be delisted and lose their superhost status
