I don't think they were ever going to take the shares but humble pie would gladly be eaten if proved wrong. Fwiw I think Ken will take us to oblivion. I don't for a minute think he wasn't genuine or that he was a WUM but he certainly didn't come here in order to spend hours a day spouting bollocks on a BWFC forum. I imagine he's being paid as a digital public relations guy by someone and is doing to us exactly what tabloids do to their readership; attempt to sway their way of thinking one way or the other.

We’re in the middle of a highly charged situation being fans of a Club that most have followed their entire lives. I don’t think it’s right to disregard the pessimism or challenge of anyone’s viewpoint at this stage whilst we have this existential threat looming. As for Howard, I don’t really think that posting a couple of obscure documents and calling a few things right necessarily equate to compelling justification for people to lap it all up. Everyone will be pleased as punch even if some semblance of his story comes to fruition but remember the old adage about things being too good to be true. Exactly, and rightly so as we all know things like this just don’t happen to Bolton Wanderers. I think it’s a case of us all just clinging onto anything positive at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing as folk thought he was a decent sort and representative of them What’ve I missed? Or is it the assumption Howard’s lot will take a pay off to let Bassini in - that’s his true colours? i see some criticism of Howard as things haven’t gone as he predicted - surely that’s down to a fluid situation with variables like adjournements badly addressed letters etc coming into play? And has he / she now fucked off? Edited April 5, 2019 by onlyoneawalker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Howard .... This is from a someone that is involved with the Insolvency and Business Restructuring practice of a fairly well known form of Chartered Accountants. “There is no automatic right of setoff in administration as opposed to liquidation which means that BWFC would still be pursued by the administrator for the 5m debt irrespective of it being owed 13m. Unless it can pay that 5m then it will force BWFC Into administration” We could still be forced in to administration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pricey Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 I think it would be really naive for everyone to dismiss Howard or what he has said. The majority of what he has said has come true. The problem for me the last week or so has been every time he has said something he hasn't painted the full picture which has lead to the many questions from others. He said his buyers could reclaim the shares next week which again got everyone's hopes up, only for a few hours later for him to tell everyone that KA can still liquidate the club. At the minute I feel like a puppet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Custodiet Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 (edited) The I of the FIBS is on his way back to report to a new boss, @AdamLordNQ. Anyone know what NQ stands for other than not qualified? I expect he'll also be looking forward to meeting the next BWFC chairman. Maybe they'll get along like a house on fire.
