I'm not disagreeing that admin is a severe possibility if not a likely outcome. The idea though that it isn't anything other than disaster is misinformed. 

IF Ken is right and there is an automatic points deduction and complete 2 year transfer ban following admin then even if you come out the other side you are in league one - potentially minus most of your assets and with new owners unable to improve the team for a significant period. How attractive is that proposition to a buyer? A buyer with actual cash? And given its potentially 2 years or more of treading water or worse on the field what will our fans do?

Just a horrible mess isn’t it 

just need some loon with more money than sense to tip up 

I reckon jules and captainmed could buy us

Show the admirable loyalty and understanding that they are renowned for.

So next step no buyer?

 

Isn't this when the Supporters Trust come into their own hopefully? - I remember them saying yonks ago they had plenty of "high net worth" individuals who wanted to fund/buy the club, so I'm guessing they would just step in and buy the club?!?

The clubs been available for the high net worth individuals to step up since before Ken came it. Davies and Gartstide were trying to flog the club. Even before the wheels came off.

Suppose we would be in a situation where  they certainly would have to be sounded out 

maybe it’s time if they’re serious to put something on the table

I’m not a supporters trust fan or anti but would there be any difference in them having no money wanting a club as opposed to the current owner?

So are people saying no deal is better then a bad deal?

If there's a, for example, million quid payment due in a couple of weeks, then isn't all this speculating a tad dramatic

The ST haven't the money to keep a tuck shop running! God help us if they get close to running our club.

Nor as the KA 

PFA announcement at 8pm?

Where would this be coming from? EFL, Sky? not sure of all income streams but do they get EFL / Sky money in instalments through the season or get it all upfront / end of season?

EFL are due to pay in January aren’t they?

Indeed they are

And Ken said it's one of the bigger payments we receive each year

So, cash flow

Which obviously is the killer but it could be all happy again come January

Could :)

Also, there should be a good pay out next week when we rinse several thousand Leeds fans, with Stoke to come 2 weeks later !!

FGR say that the Doidge fee is legally binding though and that’s supposed to be another million :o

We have given Leeds 4,550 Upper £35 Lower £30

What a way to go that would be, wound up by Forest Green Rovers.

 

I think I might be glad I don't have a Spotify account here

£150,000 ish. Hurrah.

As for the Doidge fee, I thought it was only near to 1 million with lots & lots of add ons but what we need to pay in January is a lot less than £1m.
