I am beginning to accept the reality of our position. Unless someone with serious money is willing to fund us indefinately we are finished. 

One day that stadium will be demolished. The lesson to football should be never build an out of town stadium again. 

Perhaps we can rise again and one day have a ground in Bolton.

This shitstorm has got cock all to do with the stadium and where it is.

I think it has but there are many other factors as well.

 

Just been informed, power being cut off today, 80k unpaid bills

Yep me as well.

I think the ground share idea with Wigan may be the only way to keep us going in the short term.

Mr Grey's match shuttle, a bit like the Venga bus with hard-core SI tank top, Adidas wearing, quality beer supping Lads! 

You’d have to sell it better for me to travel to Leigh

Mate of mine through work, doesn’t usually contact me and not a wind up merchant. I only posted to see if someone could either clarify or deny

Mate of yours or mate of a work colleague?

Just when I thought this thread couldn't get any more depressing!

Mate of work colleague apparently. As I said, was trying to get clarification on the matter

I just wouldn’t have the heart to follow a BWFC version 2. It wouldn’t be us and I’d always feel some separation from it. I would never feel the pain in the bad times as much or love the feeling of the good times. It would all just be a bit meh

there has only even been a better sequel once. Die Hard and I don’t see us having any John McClane’s about the place 

I know what you're saying but what makes a football club? Is it the ground, the people, players, history? We've changed grounds more than once, the original limited company was Bolton Wanderers  Football and Athletic Company Ltd and now Burnden Leisure, the people have changed etc..

Things change and no matter what incarnation I'm sure we'll all still be there.

If it's true it won't come as a shock. This thing has to reach some sort of conclusion and soon. With bills stacking up daily and no sign of anyone paying.Neither KA, or moonshift will pay. As secured creditors they will eventually get there money

I hear ya. I've long since stopped going just for the football. Sure, we all want to see the team win but it's about the crack as much as anything (and avoiding cushion shopping)

I rarely try to clarify things by presenting it to others as a fact and wait to see if they argue back! 

so someone who knows someone you work with has told them, apparently?? slightly different from your original post wouldn't you agree?

he wont say but its reliable

Karl Oyston was at the macron last Friday. This isn’t a wind up and I’ve absolutely no idea why he was there, but his car was outside and he was in the building all morning.

I actually think that if we do stay alive thats were we will end up. The reebok has been a gamble that just hasn't paid off if you live in a big house and can't pay the bills then you have to downsize. Wigan Rugby will probably end up with it. 

If the stadium was run correctly which it probably used to be and only just getting back to recently bringing in other revenue  the  hotel , concerts , boxing the football tournament that’s been cancelled ect it would stand a chance . 

This thread makes Fish-o-mania look like they are little lads with nets and crab lines..

I really dislike the sneering contempt that some seem to have for the ST. Criticism is fine, of actions or decisions at least, anyone that steps up has to understand that it comes with the territory, but if you have anything about you then you should at least balance that criticism with some respect for the efforts that they're putting in. 

Bob on.

I've no idea who the trust are but even if they are just well meaning numpties don't they just want the same as all of us?

If folk off here or elsewhere would make better accountants, chairmen etc then throw your hat in the ring.  It's got more chance of being any use in the long term than calling folk cunts!
