I don’t get it. Their keeper spilled the ball and we had a player stood near him ready to kick it in the net. Are you even allowed to do that? Why haven’t we tried this amazing new tactic before? ?

Sibley finally gets a start! And it only took every other attacker at the club getting injured to make it happen!

I don't think it's necessarily anything to do with a takeover. The compulsory strike-off thing is Companies House's process for dealing with companies that are failing to fulfil their duties - in our case almost certainly related to not filing accounts for 2+ years.  If my understanding is correct, we just file the accounts within the next couple of months and it gets removed.

Honestly, I swear that most of the reason other fans seem to hate us so much is the sheer amount of gibberish that gets posted about what we've allegedly done, and people just believe it. I saw one guy on reddit confidently stating that we'd been found guilty of running 2 parallel sets of accounts, giving one to HMRC and the other one to the EFL.  People still think we were found guilty over the stadium sale.  The whole paying Rooney a coaches salary to avoid FFP thing.

I think Byrne hasn't been quite right for a while. He was poor at the end of last season after he got that nasty head injury and hasn't been great this one either.  Not sure if it's a lack of confidence or something else.  I also think with the way we're trying to play, having a winger like Ebosele doesn't really work - we're pushing the fullbacks right up to stretch the field, and create space for the attackers, but Ebosele stays wide himself, and just gets in Byrne's way and also doesn't really exploit the space we've created inside.  The brave answer is to play Ebosele at right back and let someone like Sibley play further forward and drift inside.  Would be a big call though.
