Of course that's how her name's spelt. Even her name is irritating

Just to confirm some genius hasn't hacked Chris' Twitter to pull a cruel (but clever) prank on us all ... Mrs Kirchner has also had her say.
Unless she was hacked too ......

Plus it was... a loan. Much like the loan we ended up getting from MSD. Which is now causing such headaches. And didn't stop us going into administration.
I think only 14 of the 24 Championship clubs took the Covid loan. And yet we are still the only club in any division to go into administration since Bury in 2020. We sold ourselves our own stadium for £80million or whatever and still racked up enormous losses, season after season.
If the EFL didn't want to loan us money because they thought we were a financial basket case, heading for the rocks, they were right.
Morris shouldn't have taken any additional loans from MSD unless a) he knew he'd be able to repay them, or b) any guarantees he offered were either not tied to the club, or not tied to the club in a way that would make the loan somehow exempt from the administration process.
He didn't. He should have settled his debts and walked away; having failed to do this, he should have put the club into administration without tying it into a ridiculous debt that couldn't be dealt with under the normal administration process. But he failed to do that, too.
I do think the EFL could (and should) have dealt with the Boro and Wycombe claims much quicker, by telling them that since they had not commenced action at the point we entered administration, let alone won any kind of settlement, they could not be classed as football debtors or even "potential football debtors". That certainly delayed things and has been a major issue. But the EFL are not to blame for the initial mess, or the insane situation regarding that stadium. That's all on Morris.

Would love him to stay and settle down here. He seems happy at the club and his performances have steadily improved. Be great to see him fulfil his potential here. Classy footballer.

It would just sum the whole thing up if the EFL rejected his business plan because he formatted it in Times New Roman and they only accept business plans written in Comic Sans.

I’m all in for this idea. As well as giving academy players a shot you have quality seasoned pros in their twilight years to help the team while also gaining valuable coaching experience. A pathway for players and coaches alike.
anyway, PB yet? ?
