They’re going to have to release contracted players on free transfers to get it down to that level and if they refuse to go they will bust the budget . But at least the club shop is getting a lick of paint 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc505 Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 The suggestion of legal action is surely just bluster. The two statements today don't seem to have any awareness of how little trust there is in the owners anymore. If there's an eight figure sum floating about what was stopping them putting a fraction of that in days ago to head off a deadline? PS fuck em.

Duck Egg Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Invested in big wages to get them promoted, in the hope of flipping it and selling on for a quick profit. The clubs worth less than what they paid for it, has less assets and yet still requires more money to keep it going than what this lot are willing to spend. I hope Paul Kendrick saved some popcorn from when he was laughing at us and slimy Ken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulhanley Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 On minus eight points (and with potentially more to come given they've become like a moth to the flame for pissing off the EFL) there'll be two things in their minds next season. 1. Avoiding relegation and 2. Doing well against the hated Bolton Wanderers. It has the potential to be like the late 80s/early 90s where we patently have a better team but they play like they are on steroids. If we are prepared and ready for that then we ought still to be able to get results. However Bolton have had a habit over the years of waltzing in to derbies like Wigan and Blackpool without appreciating what it means to the opposition to beat us. Hopefully those days are over. ...... all good news though. Popcorn, jelly/ice cream, champagne, a few pints of Bank Top. Celebrate as you wish folks!
