Chaos. | |

OO falls off roof sunbathing, El Chapo found not guilty in NY and buys club off KO. 
Actually think we'll finish about 12th in league, then during the summer about 12 players leave and we spend the week before kick off still trying to recruit.
Off field, a few more court hearings, then OO finally goes just before Xmas. | |

We're supposed to be getting some news at the end of next week about either a court appointed receiver or auctions.
There have been a few false dawns but it sounds promising this time. | |

I’d like to say local investor and Belokon but I just don’t think it’s going to happen.
Someone will get it cheap with little money to invest and then a few pleas for patience. | |

I think it will be late Jan / early Feb before we hear anything to be honest
It’s not an exact science as it depends on a number of factors
So a few more weeks in my view however I’m pretty confident we will see movement in that time frame | |
| |

Think it's best to keep quiet if you have no news. You have been saying possible movement days for several months. None have come to fruit. Keep this stuff on avfttland where the fairies play.😂😂 | | | |

I think you'll find that I haven't
All I have ever done is offer a plausible explanation for the delay in commencing committal proceedings - which is down to a change of tack
Let's see if I am right | |
| |
| What do you think on 11:06 - Jan 9 with 1516 views | spell_chekker |
I'm still worried that OO will be able to keep hold of the club.
Whindyke + the £11m prem payment should just about cover what he owes.
You never know. | |
| |

I definitely think OO will be gone by the end of 2019 - it's how that transition is managed regarding the club that worries me. The timing between things crashing down and our white knights coming in to rescue us is paramount. | |

Lala, hope I’m wrong but regrettably I think the only White Knight we may see is a tumble dryer in Cash Converters window! 😇

I get you Fred. i can see how things may go regarding the crumbling of the Oyston Empire but I'm just not sure the plan to catch our fall and rebuild us is fully in place  | |

No LaLa - chaos as you said 👠| |
| |
| What do you think on 13:42 - Jan 9 with 1487 views | TwelveAngryMen |
Isn't it chaos anyway ?
There may be a period of pain in the short term but as I see it whatever it takes to return us to normality has to be worth it | |
| |
| What do you think on 13:57 - Jan 9 with 1482 views | spell_chekker |
There's no choice but to wait it out and see. I could be anything, none of us really know.
The recent info does sound promising though. | |
| |

As with all litigation it's a moveable feast
Nothing is guaranteed and timings are subject to change however subject to those caveats I agree | |
| |

No one has said it isn’t a mess now TAM.
However,when asked the question re 2019 ,chaos is the word I would use to describe how things will potentially descend and to a level we probably haven’t seen yet.
I didn’t say it wasn’t necessary chaos. That will become clearer later in the day. | |

Exactly, hence the numerous pleas for patience in my post. | |
| |
| What do you think on 15:00 - Jan 9 with 1466 views | TwelveAngryMen |
I think whoever takes over is going to have a hell of a task on their hands to turn things round
There's no real infastructure on or off the pitch, no training ground, a stadium that needs major TLC and little stock on the shelves
There will however be a significant amount of goodwill
They will need all that and more | |
| |
| What do you think on 15:22 - Jan 9 with 1456 views | Lala |
Agreed. | |
| |
| What do you think on 15:36 - Jan 9 with 1451 views | BringBackTheRedRoom |
TAM
Agree with your last post
Think one of the hardest jobs is getting the youth support back. Also the Training ground panto has been way beyond embarrassing for years now. As everyone knows what the winters are like here I've never understood why building some sort of multi purpose indoor facility hasn't been mentioned. It could not only be used by the team, but also for concerts, conferences etc.... Just about every High School/University in the USA has one.
As for the Stadium, part of me thinks it might need to be rebuilt. | |

Why would it need to be rebuilt?
I worry at the amount of real NAPM out there. I’ve only got to look at some of the characters at work who are “NAPM”. They struggle to remember their last game when asked. | |

Surprised you ask
We have kids who either haven't been or can't remember ever going to BFC
We have fans who have found other hobbies whilst sitting out the farce who need coaxing back
We have a shambles of a set up with no management structure and inadequate staffing at pretty much every level from the infamous tea lady to the very top
We have no commercial department of note, poor ties with potential sponsors, a coaching set up that needs overhauling, repairs that need attending to ....
I could go on but my brew has gone cold and it's back to work | |
| |
| What do you think on 17:32 - Jan 9 with 1436 views | janegallagher |
We also have fractured fan base that needs repairing. Tolerance from all sides needs to be key. | |

Jan/Feb and now you admit to guessing on avfttland. Spit it out if you know something is happening. Hope its not like this when you become CEO,so a mutual tells me.😃 | | | |
| What do you think on 17:44 - Jan 9 with 1421 views | janegallagher |
TAM thanks for the lecture but I was referring to the structure of the stadium.
CEO - good luck with that one | |
