As far as I know, the EFL are owned by the clubs and any profit (£2mill last year) is either retained for future expenses, given the the EFL Trust charity or redistributed to the clubs. So how would this compensation - what about 2 hundred grand each, so over £4.5 mill - be paid for? Would it be paid by the charity, or by our fellow clubs? What would be the basis for this compensation, bearing in mind that the league have merely followed their rules in expelling Bury, rules which were agreed on by the clubs? But football clubs are suppose to stick by a budget. That income stream is cut. We still have to pay the wages while taking a huge dent in our biggest income stream, obviously match day in our case. Not our or anyone’s fault bar bury fc and the efl. These payments being paid to them is just farcical

Sorry if been covered else where but where do the other 22 league 1 clubs (f**k Bolton) stand as to money lost for the non event v bury at home. Clubs would have budgeted for 23 games so who picks up the bill? Season ticket holders paid to watch 23 games. Surely we and 10,000s of season ticket holders should be recompensed by the efl, not our football clubs as they are already losing out. Sorry if I’m missing the point but why **** Bolton? They should have folded or disbanded as bury did. There again allowed to pay over the top wages. Efl are letting them do it again despite not clearing debts from last season. You think tranmere would turn them over 5-0 now.

Cause the charity to wind up? Not disputing that we are out of pocket, disputing this belief that compensation can appear out of thin air

Maybe the club could offer season ticket holders £20 off the cost of a Rovers hoodie.
At £65 a pop, I'm sure there's lots of spare profit in there.

I was about to do a thread on this but you have sorted it. However who picks up the 5% loss all of the teams in L1 endure. Will it be the players? Wil they take a 5% pay cut? No the fans will be picking up the bill as per usual. The EFL are a disgrace who wouldt even be fit to run the Downs league yet alone a professional league.
