StarterForTen Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Wonder what this Friday's deadline is going to be? We've had a bid deadline; a best bid deadline and a final bid deadline so far.... what's left? And can anyone else hear that awful screeching sound that has persisted all week? Sounds like someone scraping a barrel...?? jimtastic56 and Ken Tram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if Ashley buys the club, he’s still pissed about for 3+ months and pretty much guaranteed our relegation. And as a result, is lowering the price of a) the club and b) the stadium. Don't forget the man has years of experience in the cut throat business of retail and made himself a billionaire where most people have gone bankrupt. My previous employer supplied services to one of his businesses, they will try their very best not to pay a penny more than is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good shout, I totally forgot he was even linked, last I heard he was interested in Huddersfield... just checked and it appears that deal never progressed from initial "interest" and now their former owner Dean Hoyle has bought them.

Wish we could fast forward to this time next season when Dave Scrubbins is manager (who's he I hear you cry ? - exactly) and the team is - Hugh, Pugh, Barny, McGrew, Cuthbert , Dibble, Grub, Morecombe, Wise, Barker, Corbett We have Gillingham on Saturday, and with a win we can get out of the bottom four. As long as Dibble's surgical support is back from Robert Dyas we may have a chance. Who,s gonna be Golden Gordon (Ripping Yarns)and round up the 71 side?

What about the vaccinodrome next door? they found the money for this and what a ducking waste of money that was and will be until it is demolished. PPS would be guaranteed income for years. The council are, and have been, useless for years that is the reason, incompetence not just lack of money. LazloW and jimtastic56 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah pretty much Quantuma make very good money from IP appointments. Why on earth would they put their licence at risk ?

That is my concern that they can't really have the capital to do it. But I guess it depends upon the arrangement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that, but (1) it doesn't make me like him, and (2) I honestly think he's making a strategic error. If he'd stumped up more money in the autumn he'd probably have a Championship club capable of retaining its assets starting on zero points next season. Now, he's probably got a League 1 club that's about to lose the vast majority of its assets and start on -15 points. It's a ducking shambles.

Quantuma need to get their head out their arses, but I can imagine that all this will only result in another generic, ******** statement with absolutely no value whatsoever. So fed up. Dont lose sight of the fact that Quantuma's responsibility is to the creditors. If they can't generate an offer that satisfies the creditors, then there is no acceptable offer. I still believe HMRC are having a major influence on this. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
