Miracles would never cease if he ever got round to reporting how much Dean Holdsworth cost BWFC or how much Ken Anderson stood to lose if he didn't strike a deal with EDT. Iles' article today makes no mention of Michael James or Sharron Brittan, focussing only on the bitter diatribe of an administrator who tried to pull a fast one on Ken Anderson and seemed to have a few hissy fits when KA would have none of it. Some may remember me saying that KA would put his family's financial wellbeing first. That's exactly what he did and I couldn't help noticing it months ago.

The loss-making one that cost all of £10K but owes five times that to the bank? Anyway its not his and his wife resigned as a director in February.

Bigtoe Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Just spat my tea out Nothing against homosexuals at all... just be aware I’ve been accosted by older men in the gents toilets twice this year.. must have some seedy reputation.. not much of a fun place, & I’m not into ‘touchy feely’ Grandads ... clearly the wrong place for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was only thinking this last night Traf. If Ed didn’t love Bolton so much there is no way that his Trust would have fought so hard to make this deal work (without knowing the ins and outs). They clearly knew how much the club meant to him, and even with him gone wanted to do the right thing for him. He’s been a very big part in saving us again in my opinion. If we didn’t need the money from the naming rights then I’d love to see the stadium called the Eddie Davies stadium. Statue is the least he deserves.

Traf Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 And I don't really want to talk about our former owner too much going forward, but I'm not sure it sits well with me about Bolton fans lowering themselves to his level and trying to destroy some restaurants he may or may not have a share in. I'm not sure that Ross Anderson, who does own them, had much if anything to do with what happened up here and I'm not comfortable with the prospect of restaurant staff losing their jobs as a result of what might happen, It's time to draw a line under it and look forwards rather than backwards.

Morizio Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 What’s impressed me most about FV is that they clearly wanted the club. Put up with a lot of shit and a cunt whose time will come. Well done FV. Onwards and upwards. Can’t wait to part with my cash for the season tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And his memorial service was played out to a half-empty Parish Church. No Anderson's, no Holdsworth and no Allardyce who couldn't resist slagging him off in his wretched book.

Somewhat humbling that after deciding that £180m was enough to lose on a football club, he still returned on multiple occasions to bail us out. Then even after he was long dead, his family still thought enough of his love of BWFC to help save us. And all that really without any of the adulation that the likes of Whelan, Jack Walker etc. received. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morizio Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Just now, Traf said: They wanted it as long as they could have the hotel... I’m looking at the end result. The hotel and ground are linked. There’s pages of boring stuff going on about it all. I suspect you’ve been as equally bored as me by most of it. They did it and we breathe again.
