Well, they may not expel us at that point but if there is doubt about us as a going concern they will want to avoid the situation they had with Bury where they had to suspend their first 6 games as they didn't want them playing any games until proof was given that creditors could be paid off. When ...

Much more sporting success there compared to our relegation rivals. A 3rd party observer might say Reading are gaining a continued sporting advantage compared to their competitors, by being able to maintain a superior playing squad which it can't actually afford. And our rivals are all sticking to ...

We're probably too expensive compared to the options they're looking at. I bet loads of interested parties see us as a good opportunity and a potential bargain as a club in crisis. Then they contact our cnut of an owner, get given a ridiculous price and it's over. Best way out of this is probably s...

However . . . The continued existence of clubs has to take priority over all other factors. The rules, 'fairness', the integrity of the league .. . none of it is more important than a football club being able to continue operating and the EFL needs to recognise that. I guess if "do nothing&quo...

What does our summer look like if we know from the outset that Dai can't/ won't pay our bills? No Knibbs/Wing/Smith/Savage, perhaps Holmes and McIntyre sold. Maybe we'd still get Dean and Button. Put it this way, I think we're in a better position with the players and the points deduction than the ...

Is there a cut-off point for points deductions? The season ends on the 27th of April. Could there be a situation where we stay up by a point, then get deducted points because we missed a payment at the end of April, or May even? I think (but not 100% certain) it's the same as the old transfer deadl...

For all the criticism of Button, not entirely justifed for me, we could still have won the game with a small degree of composure. Instead it was just a smorgasbord of individual errors, from miscontrolling the ball, to poor passes, to poor decisions, to not learning how to pick out a player in the b...

Bolton, always Bolton, similar modern day trajectories, and they fukkin’ owe us….always will I do dislike everything about Bolton because of that day, but in no way would I call them 'rivals'. They are just a club I don't like. I think knocking seven past them was quite cathartic. They did also put...

"Go Now" by The Moody Blues

Sounds like the owner there bought in with his sights on moving to a new ground and developing Plainmoor. If they can get a new owner who is interested in the club, rather than a property development, this could work out OK for them in the long run. A club in administration should be cheaper to buy,...

stealthpapes a win takes us to touching distance of 40 pints and we won't need too many more than that to stay up*.

Anyone who can stay up after 40 pints is doing exceptionally well

WestYorksRoyal Though in the interest of balance, we have some pretty detestable fans on the Twittersphere too.

Let's face it - the twitter spats are our bellend fans who think they are being funny v their bellend fans who think they are being funny. The odds of anyone coming out it with any credit aren't good.

Really have had a load of dodgy keepers coming to the club since, probably, Mannone was here (and he wasn't the greatest). But since the idiot ownership has caused the club not to be able to trade properly what can you expect, either what we have or a load of youngsters still finding their way. Wer...

I think we dished it out at the time. Which is surprising for Derby in particular, given we were poorly run at the time and clearly at risk of going in the same direction. When it was Pompey, it was just one of those things that happened to other clubs which we didn't feel at risk from. I feel with...

STAR reporting following latest meeting with Howe that due diligence being undertaken on various offers eg proof of funding etc. All taking its time obviously. That’s sounds more positive. Does that mean that these offers have met Dai’s valuation of the club? :lol: It sounds like a way of making no...

Snowflake Royal It would seem pretty on brand for us to end up surviving relegation fairly comfortably only to be liquidated in July / August.

If there's no takeover on the horizon, it'd be a brave individual who'd buy a season ticket when renewal time comes around

I've been there once, for a random game, as a mate was driving up to watch Carlisle City play*. It's an odd ground, but the strangest thing to me was that the home end wasn't very popular. Fans seemed to prefer the uncovered side terrace. I liked it, but I can't imagine the view is great from the en...
