Leyther_Matt Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Just now, Lt. Aldo Raine said: So do I. I'm not arguing that he'll be successful, I'm just arguing that if he intended to pursue a legal claim yesterday, that statement won't make one jot of difference as to whether he can or will continue to pursue it. That's all. Wouldn’t worry about it, the administrators will have undoubtedly played this game before. As long as they have facts on their side - as seems to be the case - then the sideshow is irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is fair enough. It's more the people (mostly on twitter to be fair) who've taken it to assume Bassini's finally been fucked off I'm confused by.

Ros Coe Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I thought the Admins were going to announce the new company name (and members) to replace FV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwfcfan5 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 What else was meant to be in the statement? It’s just confirming who the preferred bidder is. Until the deal is done FV won’t speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they were just named as such by the administrators either because the new company name isn’t set in stone yet or because if they named them by their new company name, no one would have a clue who they were and probably would cause a meltdown.

Surely they could have said ‘’new name, previously known as Football Ventures’’ to avoid such meltdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson played him for a chump to buy time to get the admin on before it all started costing anderson money. or he paid him to , but didnt pay up. big baz suing folk is ken's bonus dogshit through the letterbox. the only thing i can guess is that bassini has less money than ken , so now we're probably better off now with this michael james / sharon britain / indian guy who name i forget Consortium. before admin bassini wouldve been good as he were talking up things and not going "with adminstration i can buy it" . But now knobhead won by getting the admin , its probably best this happens. at least theyll put the games on. Promotion or bust !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelEP Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 (edited) If the stated amount of 25million to run the club for two seasons is correct I can't see how any of the director s have that money available, so where is it coming from? If this has been discussed before I apologise but this is a long thread and I skipped lots Edited July 2, 2019 by MichaelEP Wanted to add more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burndens Bogs Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 (edited) I think we would all have preferred our new owners to be Far/Middle Eastern billionaires prepared to jizz vast amounts of money to turn us into the next Premier League super force, but most of us knew that this was highly unlikely to happen. FV’s bid was said to be “substantially higher” than the other bids they were also the most determined to own us, so i’m happy to see where this takes us, because at one point we looked perilously close to extinction. I’m also pleased that Michael James is part of the FV consortium, because although he’s a businessman first and foremost,he’s a Bolton fan through and through.
