  1. Think you also get the option to buy the club with that package
  2. one other thing on Wigan thought this was good
  3. £3 million wont go far - especially with no income except for a small amount of season ticket money coming in over next few months Whilst we all hear about the unpaid wages what you never know in these situations is how much PAYE & VAT is outstanding HMRC will be their downfall and i bet there's quite a few suppliers going unpaid too
  4. Well I have to say to @Rizlar that was a good call - I certainly didn't see it coming !! Now I cannot see anything but administration for them - even if the wages are paid in the next few days. The whole club is toxic and damaged beyond repair That it should happen on the very day that the factions at Bury FC announce their merger and the start of their comeback made it all the more enjoyable I still wonder whether these Bahrainians were the ones that Howard used to refer to during our take over talks ?
  5. I know its jumping ahead but if we were to play Wednesday in a Wembley Final i can see them getting an allocation similar to that which Sunderland received last season (almost 44k) and could also see the match setting a new league 1 play off record which apparently is still 76935 when Manchester City beat Gillingham back in 1999
  6. Presumably if they were to be paid late again - which i have to say i think highly unlikely - it would trigger another points deduction next season ? This acquisition has turned into a nightmare for their current owner, its common knowledge he has tried to sell up but no one is interested, and to offload it now he would literally have to give it away which he does not appear to be able to afford to do. Its the perfect unhappy marriage
  7. We are all Leicester tonight
  8. Wont be many done them all as no more than maybe 300-400 @ Aldershot and i can think of quite a few there that night who are no longer with us I did them all except the Preston Final (due to holiday )
  9. This match is on the same night as play off hopefuls Blackburn host Champions ( well almost) Burnley Rovers only given Burnley 2000 tickets , and are struggling to sell tickets themselves at £35 each (they have 9k season ticket holders ) So there is a distinct possibility we will have the bigger crowd on the night Oh - and some of their fans are up in arms at the prospect of their players having to potentially form a " guard of honour " as Burnley take to the pitch
  10. With Rotherham v Cardiff Cardiff v Huddersfield and Huddersfield v Reading still to play think they might need 10
  11. This is where i am at (and i think i have said this previously ) I want them to win a couple more Finish 22nd and for that final table to show them 2 points behind the team in 21st With a little * next to their name and below that final table a line saying * Wigan Athletic 3 points deducted because their Chairman ****** it up That will be bliss
  12. Note 23 is quite interesting During the year the Club made an interest free loan of £100k to someone who is both an employee and a shareholder Wonder who that could be ?
  13. For those interested - accounts have been filed Not had time to read through as yet
  14. Think he had planned on going .. Possibly a few threats made ?
  15. There will be some young kids and teenagers supporting Wrexham and Notts County today ( that have thankfully chosen to support their local club and not Liverpool and Man United / City) that will be made up to see him and a few of their parents chuffed that he is shining a light in his own way on two decent clubs with proud histories sadly plying their trade in the non league Think of him as the 2020s equivalent of the Match of the Day cameras rocking in to town that used to get a lot of us excited back in the day - like BarryK says he has his job to do
