To be fueled by testerone it means that they have got to have balls and I don't think they have. They use their privilege and sense of entitlement to persue petty vendenta's. They are as far removed from the real world and our feelings as Boris and his bunch of public school boy bankers. Jimbo Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asanovic70 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 (edited) As an aside, aren't the EFL in danger of undermining the integrity of their own competition? Promotion chasing Stoke & WBA have played both games against us and picked up 1pt in total. If the EFL prevent any takeover, due to outstanding matters, and then we are forced into a fire-sale with the consequence that we begin to field weaker sides containing U21s, surely this will benefit play-off chasing sides later in the season. Many of those games were challenging anyway, as we have most of the top half to face away, but by forcing us to change our personnel for financial reasons, rather than due to injury problems (which affect all sides throughout a season), they are deliberately weakening us which can only benefit sides facing us later in the season. Secondly, they are failing in a duty of care to younger players by making a club field a weakened side. I wonder how many of the youngsters fielded by the likes of Bolton during their relegation season from L1 have gone on to form the basis of their promoted side.

The claims were made after administration so there is a moratorium on DCFC having to consider them. The administrators must have agreed with buyers that the risk can be taken to address them once we have exited admin (probably with the view that they are baseless). Neither Boro nor Wycombe have initiated arbitration or served legal papers - so there isn’t even a case to answer officially - only threats.

How is people threatening us with legal action a reason to hold things up? Anyone can threaten anyone for anything, no matter how spurious. If I threatened you with legal proceedings because I claimed you stole my username, would David make you change your username, or would you say, “that’s ridiculous, I’ll see you in court.” a threat is meaningless, until it actually goes to court. It shouldn’t have any impact on anything. Especially if you know, I know, and everybody knows, the threat has zero merits.
