Site Supporter MickyD Posted September 18, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2021 Following @SatanGreavsieposting a link to Derbycountyways meltdown following reports of their impending administration. I had a glance through to see what their collective opinions of our similar impending doom. I haven’t read through it yet. https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/31962-bolton/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rudy Posted September 18, 2021 Members Share Posted September 18, 2021 This fucker can go in the volcano Would anyone on here admit they hope Bolton go pop to enhance our position? But this fella It doesn't really enhance our position all that much though. We'd be 8 points behind West Brom instead of 11 and an extra 3 points ahead of 7th. In exchange we'd get to see the destruction of one of the oldest football clubs in England and all their associated history including 4 FA Cup wins go up in flames. No thanks.

Had a read through and tbf 95% of the thread was wishing our fans and club the best outcome. Was expecting it to be the other way round tbh.

Site Supporter MickyD Posted September 18, 2021 Author Site Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2021 I was too. As I said, I’d found their thread entitled “Bolton” and posted on here. Now I’ve read it it really does seen decent football fans have the game at heart rather than petty rivalries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevieb Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I don't wish it on any club really. Derby have overspent big time trying to get into the prem over the past 8 years or so. Our spending to stay in the prem probably pales into insignificance in comparison... But... Derby aren't the only ones, they are the tip of the iceberg.

Site Supporter MickyD Posted September 18, 2021 Author Site Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2021 The FA have measures in place to prevent this though. Do they not do a snap audit in order to ensure their clubs are sticking to their FFP rules or is their role to keep a watching brief and just await the implosion?

I think it comes under the EFL’s jurisdiction, doesn’t it? And we all know how efficient they are (not) on that side of things. Derby (and Sheff Wednesday) will have been well aware of that though given the dodgy dealings around selling the stadiums to the owners etc so have been playing with fire for a while now. And probably a little more deviously than we did TBH, which is quite some going when considering the characters that were involved on our side.

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted September 18, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2021 It’s one thing wishing a club to go bust, something entirely different wanting them to suffer. They enjoyed our suffering although they did want us to survive. im of the same mind with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FA, by backing the premier league, have very little/no moral authority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck Egg Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I liked that post "After reading up on Messrs Bassini and Anderson, I'm thankful we have Mel at the helm" Like us and Wigan, once you've lost your wealthy fan/benefactor you're vulnerable to any shyster pitching up. Thank God we got Sharon and Co when we did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter desperado Posted September 18, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2021 Well found Micky. Nice to see plenty sympathetic to our situation back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underpants Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 After what we went through I have found a more empathetic side of myself. I don't think I would be as sympathetic if I hadn't gone through that actuall rollercoaster myself. I don't want to go through my feelings of what seemed like our impending doom. But it was, outside of family & friends, the most shittest time of my life. DCFC will be ok. They will take whatever comes their way on the chin and bum around getting things straight again. On the whole rival football fans "can" be pretty decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted September 19, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted September 19, 2021 Not a case of wanting other club's fans to go through it, but if they overstep the mark and get punished then "them's the rules". Seems like they've been pushing the boundaries for some time and now they've got their cummupance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
