I’m sure his vegan menu would go down a treat with our fan base. 

Another day, another outrage. Personally I’m waiting to see what comes out in the wash. If Parky hasn’t got any interest in playing Doidge then we might as well try and duck out of it while we can. 

Suppose he's only our player when he signs his contract with us as opposed to a loan deal

And just what are we talking about regarding the wage of doidge

10 grand a month?

40 thou

Jesus

I’d assume more like double that but it’s still v low for us not to be able to afford to pay it

Wasnt ED alive when we signed him? Could be KA thought he’d continue to bail us out? God knows

The clubs favouring that old family retriever you’ve had for donkeys. On its knees, pissing in the house but you can’t / won’t accept it’s dying 

time after time you hope the vet (Anderson in this case) pulls off another bit of magic. Patches it up and you hope beyond all realms of reality that it’ll pull through and everything will be ok. 

Eventually you realise that whatever he does it’ll never be right. Only option is to put the fucker down. End everyone’s misery

For what it is worth, when he was signed Eddie Davies was still alive and apparently underwriting the club on the quiet.

I doubt there was the intention to shaft Doidge or Forrest Green from the off.

I would guess KA has told the FGR owner that he hasn't enough left in the crucial EFL Sky payment due in ten days or so to honour the deal and that's why he's moved from being 'relaxed' about things to taking Doidge back and his statement of such.

As Doidge and FGR will be football creditors and will remain unpaid, then I guess we will be under the embargo for the whole of the window which means O'Neil cannot be signed either.

Thankfully we still have the ST in the background with their high net worth individuals on stand by to save the club.

 

Give it up Pal. I think the ST may we'll be needed soon. Let's just hope they are able to do summat.

If Doige is contracted to us why can FGR recall him? I understand that it appears that we haven't been paying him and presumably we haven't paid FGR what is owed but surely he can't just go back without some sort of legal procedure being followed?

iirc It was an 11th hour loan window (after the transfer deadline) deal with the agreement in place to be made permanent in this window

That was a really "interesting" quote, I wonder if he'll expand on that bit.

My guess would be we owe them at least one of these 250k installments

And KA has said "you might as well have him back as we aren't paying"

"Well you still owe us 250k"

"Jog on sunshine, what you going to do, wind me up? the club hasn't got it, I ain't paying it, so you're not getting it"

Technically he's ours when his registration is transferred th us

That happens before we can pick him

I'm thinking in a loan deal it's a temporary registration

Again spot on,  sluffy is a fucking tool.

Exactly. As he was a still a loan player, there would have been payment(s) due for the permanent transfer along with his wages, which may well have gone up once he became our player. Better to duck out of this with reputational damage than having to sell what’s left of the family silver to fund a transfer for a bit-part player.

Surely in that case we would not owe them any transfer fee, possibly a fee for the loan at worst?

Well let’s see what the ST do then

Weren’t they incepted just for times like this?

He's played 17 times since moving. That surprised me as well!

There's also the issue we have fcuked over the transfer window rules

Only deals we could do at that stage were loan to perm

I think?

You know the answer to that

The st are only a player if we go into admin 

And even then, i dont believe they have the funds to run a team better than one you could get in

Didn’t realise it was so many but a lot of those must have only been coming on as a sub late on I’d have thought?

Doidge signed 31st August 

Eddie died 11th September

Worry about today, mate

6 months after Kens gone, all will be forgotten by all but us

When they went into administration in 2002 and there was no points deduction 

I'd rather not wait around 14 years to be trusted again

Don’t forget you can ignore the rules and make up your own

I’d have thought the loan fee would have been paid given ED was still in the background at the time, plus I’m sure it would have kicked off before now if it hadn’t been paid. 

We’d certainly be due to pay a fee once the move was made permanent though, and I’d say this is the lesser of two evils compared to going through with the transfer and then ducking out of the payments.  

The ST will do absolutely fuck all.

Ah, for the good old days when we took the piss out of the Venkys

Maybe not but at least it’s a possible option  (last chance saloon) if the worst happens.

Obviously not the best time for any fan of BWFC no matter what you think of Anderson.

I stand by everything I've said in the past and think he's done an amazing job to get us so far considering what he took on, the suicidal BluMarble loan Holdsworth took on from the very first day and the financial basket case the club was, all without any substantial funds himself to invest.

As it stands Anderson is still in charge, the club isn't in Administration and we've yet to hear what Anderson's position is to keep the club trading.

Until then the gloating that has already broken out in some places is somewhat premature yet.
