If this is true then I think it's absolutely crap. Another points deduction especially added on to this season confirming our relegation would be absolutely devastating. I hope it's not true.

Not as devastating as not having a club.

Better this season than next.

So we’ve ended up going with the bloke who bid in November. If we had competent admins we’d have got it sorted before January and kept Jagielka, Shinnie and Ebosele. Well done Quantuma

For anyone interested in this thread, this gem of an article from the Daily Mail is a must read.

The surviving members of the team have been invited to attend the Cardiff City home game, along with John Robson's son, Gary.

What if council buy the stadium but the bidders don’t follow through and we end up being liquidated. The council have wasted  their cash unless they can find other sources of  income from  it

flatten it and build something more practical

They are glorified friendlies. The fact that there is already talk of scrapping it shows that. Besides, look at the teams that the nations actually put out. It was invented to try and make friendlies more competitive, that was all.

Just because you repeat it doesn't stop it from being toss

The nations league are just glorified friendlies. I wouldn’t count them any more than confederation cup matches.

We beat a Germany side who were really struggling. They were woeful in the World Cup and lost at home to Macedonia in qualifying going into the tournament. Given England were at home, I think most expected an England win.

England are like Deontay Wilder. Extremely consistent with knocking over the lesser guys, renowned as one of the best in the world, but has a padded out record of not actually beating anyone of real note. 

 

What toss. I bet your beloved Spain approached that match against England really casually.

I seem to remember we beat Germany at the Euros

Ah but you see that will be because Germany aren't the team they once were and not because of anything good that England did.

Highlights of that Wrexham vs Dover game. 

Check out the shot onto the bar by Wrexham!

Watching the highlights, I'm surprised there weren't more goals.

I don't watch it

Am I reading this right, some 'supporters' here would rather see the club liquidated, over a century of history wiped out? Academy players' dreams of hoping to be the next Plange. Our Rolls-Royce management team of Rooney-Rosenior looking for employment. Players like Buchanan who has black eyes on top of black eyes and gets concussed at least twice a game, they are off to find other teams. Shinnie who cried his heart out when shown the door. And on top of that HMRC, Dell and all other creditors not getting a penny? Pride Park would be flattened and replaced by an Aldi and the training facilities demolished to make way for some Redrow housing estate? It's bad enough that guy Beaufort1 who takes over the DET site saying he'd not go to a game ever again if Morris bought the club out of administration, even though he never goes, but some on here?

If one of the moderators here has any balls, I hope they delete the accounts of those voting liquidation ahead of someone stepping in to save our club. 

 

 

Indeed. What's the point of having such power if you can't use it to take everything at face value then silence people who don't agree with you?

If mels got the money and he admits his mistakes and learns from them, ill take him back. 

If he's got the money, he should pay the debt. 

Then he should duck off and not come back.

Isn't that what the 12 points was for? And wasn't there supposed to be a force majeure clause whatever happened to that? The club is not shafting anyone , the admin team are trying to get the best deal for the creditors they can, why should they be punished for that.. any further punishment now only damages the prospects for creditors,  it is counter productive.  

If I borrow a tenner from you then only give you £2.50 back, wouldn't you feel shafted. The club might not even reach those lofty heights.

We're going to have to tolerate further punishment by the EFL if the bids don't meet the threshold for creditor repayment (and arguably rightly so).

Not even arguably- it's absolutely right for the club to be punished further if they shaft their creditors, including the taxpayer.

Wasn’t the deadline for bids supposed to be almost a month ago now? Quantuma make it up as they go along

And they are not even very good at making it up as they go along. It's more like the best they could come up with in the time available.

Utterly unconvincing.
