nickswfc Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 No harm trying It was a ridiculous long shot though Ignore those laughing at you, they're the sort of people who laughed at Christopher Columbus when he said the world was round. Had it worked they'd have been calling you a genuis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southportdc Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Dear Mr Pugh, Alright, you got us, we've had the papers for weeks but we just couldn't be arsed. It's a fair cop. We'll do it later. Regards, The Football League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Sl-OWL-ly Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Do you know what, fair play to him for thinking out of the box. Most of us rely on Owlstalk and F5 for information so don't shoot him down for trying to get information. I don't see anyone else trying anything different. In fairness that was a LONG shot, but why not be cheeky? If you don't try, you don't get. Well said that man ! Totally agree with you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longreach Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 It’s now more than 6 weeks since the takeover was announced and the wait for the FL to ratify it is driving me crazy. So I decided to contact the FL to see if they could just indicate when a decision is likely to be made. Then at least I would know how much longer I would need to wait without checking all forums every 5 minutes. I was not that hopeful of a reply but to the credit of the FL they did reply as follows: Thank you for your email. We cannot provide any comment on any potential club takeovers and any information in this respect would be for the club themselves to divulge, nor do we set a specific time period for completing any prospective takeover. The Football League requires specific information in relation to any takeover and this has to be received and be compliant with our regulations and policies. In respect of any individuals involved in a takeover we can only direct you to our regulations and FAQ regarding the Owners and Directors test http://www.football-league.co.uk/regulations/20130704/appendix-3_2293633_2128209 and here http://www.football-league.co.uk/page/FAQ/FAQsDetail/0,,10794~2428071,00.html. This fully outlines the procedures involved. Thank you for contacting The Football League So not much use I know but when you look at what is involved in the Owners and Directors test you can maybe understand why it is taking so long. Sorry….I did try!!! Bet you're really glad you posted this............no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleo Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Don't hammer the lad for trying. Be honest we're all desperate for news otherwise we wouldn't be checking websites like this every 5 minutes. The good news is NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozzy85 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 You can try for nothing. Can't believe people are having a go at the op. They wouldn't say anything but what's the harm in trying! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruscol85 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 At least the lad tried something. Misjudged? Perhaps, but certainly for all of the right reasons. Definitely more than most on here are doing, other than constantly moaning that it hasn't happened yet, without any knowledge of the situation. Fair play lad.

EcclesallOwl Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 You say 'more than most on here are doing' as though we actually could do something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markowl Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Good point ruscol. Let's all email the Football League. That'll make things happen quicker. We're to blame because we sat round doing nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigrbuk Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 The OP single-handedly delayed the admin process for 10 minutes while someone read his email and responded. Boo the OP. BOOO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
