Either way we should have new owners on Wednesday I think we all know it’s doubtful we’ll have new owners in by Wednesday - due diligence/fit & proper persons checks etc etc. In fact i would imagine that kens shares won’t be taken & we’ll have to remain “Kenned up” for a little while yet.

Valeska Dennehy @leskaXxx Mar 30 More The Bassini rumour is absolute rubbish and has been thrown in by our glorious leader himself to cause mayhem and chaos and to force the walkaways who are are staunch #bwfc supporters back to the table ! It’s an anti KA propaganda account ran by a troll. Look at the historical tweets. Anyway, Bassini - he is obviously of dubious past. But we know that. ”Howard’s men/boys” as they seem to have been christened - we don’t know either way right? (Unless I’ve missed something today and I’m not reading all of it) So why would so many folk back them? or not? seeing as we don’t know who they are....

MalcolmW Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 31 minutes ago, Ani said: The thing everyone seems to be ignoring is that the club asked for a week and got 5. Only reason can see for that would be judge taking into account the incorrectly served document. Unless there is a better explanation. I think it gave him a clear choice next time up. Either the club has been sold by then or it will fold on that date. If the club were to fold in April the league table would have to be rejigged very late in the season, potentially affecting direct promotion, play-off places, and relegation. Obviously best if the takeover is completed next Wednesday and all bills paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken has ruined us, he’s ruined our reputation, he’s treated staff, players, former players, current players, other clubs & all the spectators absolutely horribly. No way on this earth can he be defended. Doidge wasn’t shit, he was played in the wrong system by our shite manager. hes a goal scorer in the right system. Just for the record, I believe Forest Green are set up just to play to Doidge's strengths. If so since he returned to them he's scored 5 league goals - but only 2 of them in their last 11 games - this remember at League 2 level (the fourth tier). He's played every minute of every match apart from his first game back (v Bury) where he came off in the 81st minute no doubt to a standing ovation from those Bolton supporters who travelled nearly a 400 mile round trip to buy one of Dale Vince's 'No Ken Do' T-shirts with all funds going to the Bolton Wanderers Supporters Trust. Still think he's a goal scorer? https://www.transfermarkt.com/christian-doidge/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/255353/saison/2018/wettbewerb/GB4/verein/3455 Nothing personal against the lad, I hope he comes good but on his present form it seems Parkinson was right not to rate him at Championship level even though you clearly think you know best.

Outside of him having no money he’s proven quite good at managing a club with little or major financial backing, whilst also improving revenue streams. ....and channeling them into his own pocket!

In fairness there's been nothing to get behind has there? A lot of ifs, huge and maybes surrounding Howard's supposed group, but you can't blame folk for hoping. If and when Bassini and his backers succeed, then there will be something concrete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea a judge would give an unasked for extension to make the league ‘tidier’ does not work for me. The club said could be sorted in a week. Not that familiar with such proceedings and can not get head round a defendant asking for a bit of time and the judge saying ok have 5 times that.

Cannot see how its solved without him buying the dark horse's portion . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s as simple as whilst anyone’s better than liquidation, you can’t get much lower than Bassini The fact that he got declared bankrupt for £40k doesn’t fill you with confidence that he can take us forward. However as we know he isn’t fronting the money, some Thai folk are, but why use such a dick head? Fuck knows Anyway, it’s better than liquidation Howards lot sound better on paper of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with some journos clinging to a story when it's long gone because they broke it first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
