Some may recall the AGM/EGM of 2021 when Fleetwood Town were held up as a club to aspire to.

.... and Wigan deducted a further 4 points to start next season after failing to pay the wages again. Plus a further 4 suspended until June if they again fail to meet their obligations.

That comes as no surprise. No surprise at all. Funny how these characters have similar traits.

Maybe some questions need to be asked about the Stockport owner too.

Used car salesman to multi millionaire in a relatively short period of time through property investment & development. Firstly selling student accommodation (where have we heard that before?) followed by investments in that drug dealers' paradise of Dubai. Wonder if he's a mate of old baldy?

I am not condoning the Fleetwood chairman Pilley’s crimes, but to be fair to him he has put his money into the club over past 10 years, so it can’t be said that at the time he failed the EFL test

Sounds like he put other people's money into the club, not money that he had earned in an honest manner. Amongst other things, the EFL test is to verify that money coming into a club is clean. So, on that basis he should have failed the test.

No wonder an ex-CEO was alleged to claim they were well run? He allegedly had alleged friends who allegedly ran business of an alleged similar ilk. What a pity we missed out on all that funding. Allegedly. Rather be in the NL thanks!

So he claims that Fleetwood Town, a relatively small EFL club, is indebted to him to the tune of £24m. And today the club issued a release to say that it is business as usual. Now what if the Crown decide that proceeds obtained fruadulently need to be called in - will it be business as usual then? Talk about burrowing your head in the sand

It's in the accounts that £24.4m was owed to group companies, all of which he owns.

FTFC are Fleetwood Wanderers on Companies House.

The much-vaunted cash cow training complex (as per aGM 2021) continues to lose money.

I recall that points deducted / in a financial mess Reading were also much-vaunted on 1st June 2021 as an example of what RAFC should aim for. By someone.

View on Fleetwood's miscreant from Private Eye. Makes you wonder why Fleetwood Town were so praised by a soon to be deposed director just over 2 years ago. Bent businessmen of a feather, flock together.

His Honour Judge Knowles KC, said Pilley, who had been jailed for conspiracy to steal from the post office in 1998, presented a "sordid tale of squalid lies, greed and fraud." He continued: "You are a hypocrite who will not tolerate criticism."

Imprisoned for an earlier criminal conspiracy, but he still passed the OAD test set by the EFL.

Absolute joke, but he deserves every single day of his incarceration, as do the people who helped him.

Will the court now seize all his assets on the basis that it comes from criminal activities?

How will this impact on Fleetwood, without his money and who owns the ground, his business or Fleetwood FC, so could the court seize the ground?

I do believe a proceeds of crime investigation has been mentioned by the prosecution.
