I expect that's what most sensible folk think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BWFC circs are very different to Blackpool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderlust Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Have I missed an official announcement that FV have taken over or is that still on the burner? And are we expecting some kind of statement outlining where the funding is coming from (backers) and some sort of plan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And are we expecting some kind of statement outlining where the funding is coming from (backers) and some sort of plan? You haven’t missed anything. Hopefully heads of terms announced tomorrow, as it was supposed to be done and dusted on Friday. Blackpool have already made a signing with their new owner, hopefully we are equally, if not more speedy in signing up some players. While it’d be nice to have a fresh start without any sentiment, getting Wheater back in would be a positive I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it takes 5 days to agree HoTs, you wonder how long it’s going to take them to agree the sale contract! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantra Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Depends on a number of factors I suppose but it’s in their interest to get it wrapped up quickly. Hopefully only another week or two at the very most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruba Mustafa Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 It’s Defo FV. im feeling quite positive overall. Four (?) heads is better than one, n all that. but on the other hand they’ll all want a slice of the profits. They get my support til they start to **** it up I suppose.

lowcarbon Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Can anyone confirm if we are under a 2 year transfer embargo, for going into Administration? Also is there a 2 window transfer embargo for failing to pay wages on time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same as last time. Can sign frees and loans with no fee. And a squad of 24. And league have to approve every deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowcarbon Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 I know we can sign and register loans and freebies up to about 23/24 players, but not allowed to buy at all or offer any money to agents etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sleepingindian Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 providing we dont go down in league one think it will take us 2 seasons to get back to championship. but sometime when you dont go up first time gives players more time to develop and be more ready for championship.

Is there someone behind FV with real money? I’m of opinion there may well be given Nixon’s tweet last week saying folk around the deal seem very cheerful about it. We will soon know. https://twitter.com/reluctantnicko/status/1139569877763723264?s=21 Edited June 16, 2019 by Mounts Kipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blondi Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 I actually don't mind being in League 1 for a couple of seasons or so, I will actually look forward to the games, unlike being in the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
