Still concerns me that there is seemingly no "commitment to buy" as I previously thought. I realise the details would need more work but there would have at least have been a "you have agreed to buy this for that amount" kind of deal and now just finishing off the finer parts. I think I just thought it was further down the road than it now seems to be. Hopefully that concern is false and we are all buzzing next week waiting for signings and new kits etc. Think the best thing to avoid fan panic would have been to not start giving us completion dates and just tell us all to fuck off for a bit and we will let you know when its done. Ok Lee,fuck off for a bit and we'll let you know when it's done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presumed that the admin process, bis deadlines etc were designed so that once all bids were in, the administrators pick their preferred option and they buy the club has they agreed in their bid. Both parties already agreed sale price, and what they were getting for their money, then we crack on. Why does it now seem that there isnt't actually an agreement as yet and I presume the potential buyers could just walk if they felt the deal wasnt right. Why is all that shit still up in the air at this stage? i think fans are right to be more than a little concerned that the process THEY set out is now nothing of the sort in reality. We have seen that quite a few times already tbf, and have even had "HOT" agreed and announced (yet to happen this time) and its still gone Pete Tong. the fans are wrong.

But in due diligence the true debt level was revealed as £40M plus. Really? The Burnden Leisure Group spends about £7m p.a on goods and services so who exactly are these additional unsecured creditors that have taken the debt to £40M plus in the year after the Madine sale took the club into profit forthe first time in years.

I think there are regulations requiring clubs to disclose their accounts to the EFL in advance of any company law regs and I expect KA did this many months ago. But maybe you would like to explain why you think that the Madine sale would not have resulted in a profit for the year in 2017/18. More to the point who exactly do you think might be owed 40M+ and what facilities, goods or services were provided to that value? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the most moronic comment you have seen on here the I'm guessing you have never been 'Behind The Stands.' I'd also say that the pretend homophobia is more offensive than any perceived dig at folk on the high functioning end of the autistic spectrum like Alan Turing, since it is not relevant to content posted.
