I’m not on twitter so I can’t contact Barry Worthington direct, but if anybody has contact with him I’d like him to ask Krasner why he’s sold all our other assets at a fraction of their value, yet he’s digging his heels in over the stadium?
The worrying thing was most of Fleetwood team was youth players.
Where do you get that from?
I’ve just looked on Fleetwood’s website. 2 of the players don’t have their ages shown (actually one of them isn’t actually shown so could be a new signing), but of the other 9, one of them is 20, 6 are aged between 23 and 28, and the other 2, Coutts and Whelan are both ex Premier League players in their early 30’s.
If this takeover happens, what is the score regarding the current transfer embargo?
I read conflicting things. Some say we are still limited to free transfers and loans, but with the situation as it is that shouldn’t be that much of a problem. I reckon there will be more out of contract players than ever before, and if they realise they are going to have to lower their wage demands with the salary cap we could get some decent deals. It may even be worth picking up the phone and contacting the likes of Jacobs, Pilkington and Roberts to see if they fancy a game. I don’t think any of them will be picked up by Championship sides. We need at least 10 signings, so if we can pick up a couple of speedy youngsters on loan plus some solid experienced players like the above we may be able to settle things down and prepare for a promotion push in season 21/22.
This has now gone beyond football and it’s inept, spineless authorities.
This now has to become an national and international legal issue. Oh how I’d love Panorama to get a hold of this. There’d be nowhere for any of them to hide. Because it’s Wigan Athletic the profile has been pretty low due to the shameful, but unsurprising, non-coverage by the press and TV. Get someone like Panorama to really stir up the shit and let’s watch them squirm and wriggle in front of millions of viewers.
Unfortunately it’s unlikely to happen as we aren’t a Man U or Chelsea. But it bloody well should!
Egg, do we know the total debt the club has?. This loan agreement appears to be as clear as mid.
Is that you Officer Crabtree?
You don’t need to be Mystic Meg to predict imminent bad news. The whole world knows our team is going to be ripped apart in the next few days.
If a bidding club meets the fee we are duty bound to accept it. The decision on where the player goes rests with him if there’s more than one club involved. If the clause is £1.9m we have to accept £1.9m. If a club later shows an interest why on earth would they bid £5m or £10m or whatever? You can’t have an auction when you have an obligation to accept bids of a stipulated figure.
Things like that work both ways. There would be clauses to cut wages in the case of relegation. As for the Gelhardt rumour, I think that’s all it is. His new deal is shown as being registered on the FA website. And as someone pointed out somewhere else, I’m sure Gelhardt would have noticed if there hadn’t been an increase in his pay packet these last few months.
With a transfer embargo on top of everything we’ll be waiting a while before we’re in a position to mount any promotion challenge unfortunately. No matter what division we are in.
As it’s a shared stadium I think it’s only right that there is some kind of acknowledgement of the Warriors. Therefore we use Springfield in the memory of Springfield Park. We then use Park in memory of Central Park. There we have it. Springfield Park. Nobody has been left out and everybody is happy. Simples.
I’d have no objection if he was involved in a party that took ownership of us, but we all know it would lead to yet more re-writing of history by the the egg shaped ones.
