Fair point, surely he'd need us back in the prem to sell for a profit? £25m seems a bit steep to me.

Why would Mike Ashley be interested?

Biggest mistake we ever made was signing the likes of Petrov, with no relegation release clause.

A lot of Newcastle fans seem to think because they have a big stadium and a lot of fans, that they have a god given right to be challenging for the title.

Agreed with this 100%

Really hoping the Chinese company swoop in now. At least Kenneth can't fuck any new buyers about anymore. Looks like another relegation battle at best next season.

Fair points lads. Had a fair few drinks in the sun on holiday today.. brain isn't running at full steam.

If these Chinese owners are loaded why would they wait for us to go in admin? Am I missing something?

The players know full well they'll get paid their wages eventually no matter what.

Bastards, it should be Anderson who gets fucked for it not the club. I suppose there isn't much the EFL can do other than ban Anderson from being involved in football. I'm sure that will kill him inside whilst he;'s driving around Monaco in his Lamborghini. I had high hopes things were going to get better a few weeks ago, should have known better being a Bolton fan.

So basically the club and fans get punished and Ken swans of into sunset with his secured £5m. Nice one EFL.

I meant to say today 🤣🤣

I was against it. But after we didn't get beat that day, I'm not so sure.

Yes, but the problem is the people checking the bust box are too thick to know what liquidation means.

I thought this myself. I didn't have any cash with me for the game against Middlesbrough. Fancied a pint at half time because of the vicious assualt on my senses, by the inept playing staff in white on the pitch, but they don't even take cards. I didn't get a pint, which was shit for me, as I really could have done with one at that moment. But shit for the club, because who really carries a cash around these days? How many people needed a pint at half time after that shite? How much money did the club miss out on. Clueless, from top to bottom.

Oh, it would seem I have been misinformed.

Definitely a case of wishful thinking but clubs like Bournemouth and even Wigan have wealthy owners.

My optimistic belief or hope is that he is backed by some people with serious money, who know he has contacts in the football world. They are using him as an entry into it and are happy for him to take all the publicity and he is happy with this arrangement, as if it comes of and we do end up back in the premiership he comes out as a hero, clears his name and his backers make some of the money back and use things like sponsorship in the most watched league in the world to further their own business interests.

I'm not having he's bought the club without knowing the debt levels. He's either insane or it's not his money.

Didnt he leave Blackburn because the Venkys fired Allardyce?

I can't see anyone lending him the best part of £30m

Being back in the championship in 3 years would be an achievement the way things have been going.

All said and done, I'll just be happy to concentrate on the football side of things for a bit, rather than the possibility of the club being liquidated or under embargo constantly casting a shadow over everything BWFC related.

Interesting. Maybe MJ is happy to wipe them or there is some kind of repayment plan being put in place. He could just be looking to get a the club on an even keel and sell on like you said.

According to the club statement 'all debts will be settled' so he must have a backer or he's won the Euro millions...
