The league won't allow a club to tell them they will only play one game a week. A solution to this may be for the EFL to withdraw us from the league now and allow us to take a place in next season's league 2 when we'll either have been taken over or liquidated. The administrators have been garbage, they've had over 3 months to sell the club or at least sign some cheap journeymen pros till the January window but have done neither Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leyther_Matt Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 A lot may ride on how many tickets have been pre-sold and the resultant effect on whether we can actually afford to host the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the question, isn't it. How much do we need in the bank to guarantee the game going ahead and how late do you leave it before seeing if enough cash has come in. Might be reliant on Ipswich shifting a few as much as anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely that would be equivalent to a few hundred tickets? Dunno how that works, and imagine those who are paid to do this will have looked into it, but shit is getting desperate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it all comes out in the wash this will have been the most complex football club insolvency process there has ever been. Too many people with too much power and too many people with different agendas. Blame anyone blame FV and Kenneth. I’m pretty confident that between those two lies the blame with Larry just a wee side show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
