Moderators Casino Posted July 27, 2019 Moderators Share Posted July 27, 2019 As was put to me the other day, the process is probably still covered by NDA So, all the negative stuff isn't coming from somebody with anything to lose by breaching said agreement I'll leave that to others to decide who might want to paint FV in a poor light I'm sure if FV could give their side, folk would be less twitchy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it doesn’t anymore they will not. Which is the correct thing to do. It is just worrying as a fan of a club who has been used to having ED in background willing to get us out of trouble. The backstop is removed now and we are left with a situation where the future is decided by whether the business makes sense and nowt else.

Correct on both counts .Les Bradd is Notts County's leading scorer of all time but played for Stockport later in his career & scored a good few for them . Needam played for Forest later but in quite a successful side could have been Clough in charge not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All theyre doing is what any successful business does and that's to get value for money, if it wasn't for the 'juggling' of funds and mountains of paperwork they'd of probably had this done and dusted or walked away. They're still here thank the Lord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizlar Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Wouldn't surprise me if the Wycombe games gets cancelled to give FV a further week to get players and the deal done would be in the EFL interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their business plan is seemingly based on owning the hotel and getting the players (and who knows who else) to defer payment for several years. Which makes the process of them being named preferred bidder over six weeks ago seem slightly bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we actually in a better position than Bury? If FV decide to cut their losses and walk surely we'd be in pretty much the same place. Smacks a little bit like having all your eggs in one basket.

I'm not saying there was (although, I don't think it's ever been said that FV were the only bidder). It's bizarre in that when the administrators announced they'd chosen a preferred bidder, they gave timelines of two/three weeks for everything to be completed. How does that marry up with FV's business plan relying on buying the hotel, for which the process of selling hadn't even begun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted July 27, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted July 27, 2019 I'd rather get dicked at Wycombe playing kids rather than run the risk of more punishment from EFL. That said, they'd probably punish us for that. Useless wankers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
