Going off the FB groups it’s a close call between. Throwing tennis balls Throwing beach balls throwing season tickets wearing FG shirts Turning your back on the team in the 9th min (Doidge number) Anderson out banners. and numerous other ridiculous ideas. We, Bolton Wanderers, without any shadow of a doubt have the mongiest fans in the land, and possibly the world. Back to Ken, is it true that any potential buyer has to pay 100k to look at the books? Fuck it lets organise a friendly with them, Doidge (God rest his soul) can play a half for each team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dazl1212 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) Quote But the last-minute collapse of the transfer has prompted an angry reaction from Forest Green chairman Dale Vince, and leaves Wanderers facing the threat of legal action after the striker was recalled by his parent club. Mr Dale said Wanderers had failed to honour their financial obligations and did not pay Doidge during his four-month loan, saying that Rovers had continued to pay his wages. Is he called Dale Vince or Vince Dale? Surely it can't be that difficult to get his name right? Edited January 8, 2019 by dazl1212 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 If you want to protest either don't go at all or don't go in for the first 10/15 minutes. Throwing stuff is infantile and likely to get you banned, protests inside the ground affect the players, and when it is all said and done, we want the team to win.

I don't know the accuracy of the amount but it isn't that unusual for company's levying a charge to see their books - not as a means to raise money (or deliberately attempt to stop people buying it!) as many on social media seem to believe - but as a means of establishing that whoever wants to look at them does have a serious intent of buying the business - it is simply a means of weeding out the time wasters and can often be agreed to be a period of 'exclusivity' between the two party's. Depending on the terms of the agreement to examine the books it could well be that the amount is refunded in full if the sale of the company goes through. Think of it as putting a (non returnable) deposit down to 'hold' something on a potential purchase you are looking to make. It certainly isn't there to stop or prevent anyone with a serious intention wanting to buy the club. Looking at the books is certainly not a five minute job and could tie the club and its staff in to weeks of work in providing the relative information and answering queries arising thereof. To put it into some perspective if the figure is correct and KA really is looking for £5 million profit after all debts are cleared then the £100k would equate to one fiftieth of the end sale price (if agreed at £5m) or just 2% of the value of the net club sale - equivalent to putting down say a £5,000 deposit for a £250,000 house you may want to buy to be taken off the market for you. Would you put down £5,000 if you weren't serious about buying the house in the first place? Same scenario simply being applied at the club.

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted January 8, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted January 8, 2019 Sluffy, that all makes sense. If I was in a position to buy the club, I would insist on having my £100,000 back irrespective of whether I went ahead and bought the club. It may be that a prospective buyer sees the figures and thinks "I'm not paying his asking price" Unless Ken dropped his price, then a no deal would result, and a hundred grand is a lot of down to chuck away in such circumstances.

Though we made a profit, which was something I suppose. I remember years ago, when Steve Thompson was sold to Luton, and then shortly afterwards went to Leicester (iirc).
