Just listening back to last night’s Sportscene, I know he’s not everyone’s cup of tea but around 23 mins in K. Maguire talks about our ability to generate £9million pounds per year compared to the likes of Burton £800k and Rotherham (double Burton’s). Also mentions there are 700 players who’s contracts expire on the 30th so should the takeover happen and some sort of business structure be arranged quickly we should be able to compete in the league. He then goes on to discuss the Pride Park ownership info that’s changed on Companies House. He also talks about the potential financial implications of being in league one and how our club size could benefit us. I’m aware there’s a speculative element to what he’s saying and it may be that the reality we face is very different, but interesting to hear.
Also has Stuart Webb discussing the Arthur Cox years, it’s a good listen if anyone hasn’t already and has an hour to fill.

You're right Pete, Why would WR have been involved in it, I mean Stretford has only been financially linked to WR for some 20 years, Stretford is/was the link to WR with the yanks bid, Stretford was a witness I believe to WRs wife Colleen in her case with RV, Stretford has been a very very VERY close ally to WR, WR resigns 3 days before the story broke.
I don't believe in conspiracies...did the USA land a craft on the moon in 1969 ?   

We do need to be careful what we post about this. 

would love it, if Stretford has carelessly made a gift of 1.6m to our hero David Clowes

Hopefully the answer is this: q runs the club, right now q pretty much IS the club. So if someone at the club assisted Stretford in duping q about whose the funds were, that person is in effect duping the club. So the club isn’t implicated, it is a personal problem for whomever was working with Stretford. Let’s hope so. 
Key point for us is that this does not derail the DC purchase. I don't think it will, partly because this all looks like a stinky concoction brewed by Stretford, Rooney and CK. And also because the EFl is dying for us to get sold - so if DC speaks to the EFL I don’t think they’ll put the frighteners on  him. But maybe it won’t be Wednesday 
Never a dull moment 

Don’t think he did. When MM sorted out the Gibbo claim, Hoskin said that the Wycombe claim would not cause problems. Based on that and Couhig’s latest comments, wonder whether he ‘settled’ for a small payment which would be paid when we come out of admin. It’s absurd he should get anything 

Typical, isn't it? All these agents sapping the game dry, and the one time an agent puts money into a club he gets punished for it.

Well I think Mr Couhig is an excellent man and sets a fine example with his empathetic treatment of a fellow EFL member in severe distress. The fact that the EFL board didn’t stop him taking unilateral action against another club, in effect breaking their own rules, cannot be blamed on such a fine upstanding owner. I would personally nominate him for an honour for services to football and wish Wycombe all the best for the season.

They never made it a formal claim as they were never going to get it listed as a defined football debt.  That ambulance has speed off into the distance. 

Couhig brings the human race into disrepute

Everytime I see that Couhig thing
He reminds me of 

Something disturbed Couhig again?

You want to put him in goal or at RB?

23 is pretty good for a stadium worth 80m ?     (Assuming 202 is debt free ) 
that’s a parting gift of 57 from MM 

The only excuse would be not being able to get players in. But, I think we'll get a more than competitive team assembled before the first game of the season.

Good grief have we appointed Steve Cooper!!! What will the Gump’s say

league one is not an easy league. 
 
the wages and budget are irrelevant, if people go into this expecting to do well even with a make shift team then we will be mistaken.
 
its not always about having the best players, your mentality has to be right for this division every week. it will be every teams cup final against us, we will need to be at it more than other teams just to compete
 
and the wage restrictions means we are going to have to make use of what we have got. if we sign a load of players on big money and dont make it out we will linger for a long time.

For the first time in 2 years we can look forward again, we can hope again, we can dream again, we don’t have to worry about future points deductions. It’s hard not to feel positive again.
Cant wait for this thread to close - imminently 

and a DBS certificate

Haha and don’t forget the lollipops
