NeonLeon Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Double our money and he’s only got a year left hasn’t he? I’d accept the next bid if the others that are circling don’t step up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, I get the feeling the likes of Reach etc... have also taken the same action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morepork Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 1 minute ago, kirksandallowl said: But at that point the club director(s) has the choice to enter administration or accept being wound up? The owner has to acknowledge the reality of the situation first, then bring in professionals to discuss the options. He may have other assets, we know he owns the stadium for instance and other businesses he may be able to offer as security or raise borrowing against. Equally he may not want to risk those other assets by pinning them to what looks very much like a lost cause. There is much we don’t know, but we do know players are unpaid. The club has described this as a cashflow issue, it isn’t. We have massive outgoings, literally no revenue, that’s a broken business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldGigsChris Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Is DC refusing to sell another player that doesn't want to play for us again? Has the guy learnt nothing? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sell. Sell. Sell. 1 million is a profit on Windass. He hinted on a podcast the other day he wants out. Unhappy player not motivated is not someone you want at the club. I bet you'd have sold him for £400K two days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are not going up next season under any circumstances. Come to terms with that now and next seasons struggle will be much more easier for you. A Josh Windass who wants to leave isn’t going to fire us to promotion on his own mate. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not the one turning down bids for players who could put the club in real trouble over unpaid wages. I’m also not the one turning down bids for players while under a transfer embargo. Apologies for not having any type of confidence in the chairman here. He’s hardly got a good track record in the transfer market. In fact, it’s truly abysmal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No money has changed hands, we've not got £1m for Windass as we didn't accept it, therefore our income is £0, which is less than £400k. And Windass will still want paying, now, in the future, and for the past too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
