Take Over

Recommended Posts

My next door neighbor went to the rugby at the unibol yesterday, not sure which part of the ground. Went to get some refreshments and asked for cups of tea. Was told they didn’t have any tea. So then then asked for white coffee, was told sorry we haven’t got any milk.

Administrators cannot continue to trade an insolvent business. So they liquidate whenever the money is gone. But on top of that in all likelihood the EFL won’t let us start the season in admin without a clear sense we can finish it. If FV are certain they can complete soon I suspect we go on. But if it’s just rolling with no assurance I suspect league step in and say they need certainty if we are to play next weekend. 

In my view the deal is either done early this week or liquidation is pretty nailed on. Unless someone is willing to fund the club in admin on an ongoing basis.

I agree with you - I reckon we have till tuesday to get the deal done 

I dont think it would be quite so bad If Bury were not in the same predicament. 

The EFL will have to be seen to treat both clubs the same - you cannot have one rule for one and another rule  for the other 

I read yesterday the Accrington Stanley chairman tweeting the below ( find it via Marc Iles who  retweeted it ) 

and to be fair if you read his other comments the guy talks a lot of sense 

No way should an administrators 11 be allowed to start the season.

@EFL have bent over backwards for @OfficialBWFC

and it’s time for tough love. This has been going on for years. Sort it out NOW. Concentrate minds. Do a deal before the season starts.

One of the well known girls from the match was pictured on facebook with a stack of empty beer plastic glasses yesterday.  Problem solved

Problem for him was the 75 mile round trip, otherwise it would have solved his problem as well

Yep think he’s 100% right

The Accrington Stanley chairman is right except for saying that an admin 11 can’t start the season. That has happened before and is not the issue. The issue is that the business doesn’t have the cash to trade and meet existing commitments. If there was money to run it for next 6 months then starting under administrators really isn’t an issue.

It’s a bit chicken and egg surely the admin should put the season tickets on sale, otherwise they’ll never be any money.

Selling season tickets means they become liable for the games going ahead...

They’ve not even sanctioned Wycombe tickets being sold. Which speaks volumes about how financially perilous a position we are in.

Fact, or guesswork

I'd suggest the latter

Wycombe are selling tickets for a game that might not take place

Why is it ok for them and not for us

Theres really no reason tickets cant be sold for the away sections

Just needs a will to do so

“Concentrating minds” doesn’t suddenly make Ken Anderson any less of a cunt.

Thats no different than posting one of those whimsical, bullshit pictures on Facebook that say something like “Live, travel, do whatever you want today, life’s too short not to etc etc”

all fine until the bills need paying.

Just. Be. Fucking. Patient.

Because they have the safeguards in place to process refunds?

Well, do something about it

He’s pissed off which I’m sure you and everyone else. 

The whole thing is pathetic. We will lose a lot of fans over this. Some will say good riddance but when every penny counts as it seems it will do, this doesn’t bode well.

The club have a big PR job if and when this is resolved.

I still don't understand why the EFL haven't outlined the punishment for not playing the Brentford game. If it was a point deduction they could just get it over and done with. it makes me think it could be a hefty fine and they are waiting to fuck us over with that instead.

Mate, we could be gone tomorrow

The relief if this gets sorted will be enormous

Anybody who bails out now is no bwfc fan

They can only be playing at it

I'd like their money but that's about it

Slash wrists central this place 

I can wait till it’s done. It’s like supporting a financial institution these days and my interest is on the wain big time. I’ll be back when its sorted. 

I don’t blame anyone for being fed up though. I’m glad people still care

I get the distinct impression a small number of people are absolutely wanking themselves blind at the attention this is getting them on twitter etc. 

Soaking up the drama.

personally, I just cannot begin to picture next Saturday without BWFC involved. The thought genuinely brings me out in a cold sweat.

fuck that. I’ll take any deal whatsoever right now.

100% with you on a lot of this. 

It will be a great relief when it’s sorted but truthfully I have zoned out as it’s depressingly dull and hardly about football.

i can only speak for myself but I’ll be renewing etc. But something has changed for me. I hope what’s missing comes back
