Whilst relegation from Div 4 would be rubbish, I’d rather that happen than the club fold and do a ‘Phoenix’.
I’m still holding out that we’re not ‘fucked for next season’ yet. I’ll leave that until after the transfer window (if we get that far).
I don't know, a phoenix club has appeal for me should it come to that. I am done with shit owners and want to be watching football at a well run sustainable club. If it takes a clean break then so be it. |

How would becoming a phoenix club do away with the shit owners problem? |

I’d prefer continuity with all the successes and failures it brings. ‘AFC Swindon 2021’ doesn’t appeal. |

Because it is started by fans that care.

So you mean a 'fan owned' phoenix club? You'd still have stuff like competence to worry about, and where's money going to come from to progress? It sounds to me like a romantic idea but one that lacks oomph. |

Yes FH., I meant fan led phoenix. I am sure it's a romantic notion. But with each passing he said, she said and it'll be done in two weeks or its imminent, I get closer (in my head) to the fuck this go nuclear option

You could start a new club regardless - something akin to FC United of Manchester

We at the Trust apreciate and feel the same frustrations as you all, after all we are avid town fans just volunteering for the Trust to try and keep our club afloat and flourish in the future. Apreciate the updates we give are sometimes just repeating previous ones. We get our updates direct from the Axis lawyers as they apreciate they and Clem cant comment until it's all done . I can assure you everyone wants this done yesterday but we are only passing on information that we take at face value direct from the Axis legal team. Let's all stay positive and it will happen but agree it is like waiting for Christmas, but Christmas will come as soon as the EFL complete their fit and proper process (and there are no issues as LP suggested there was today), and then Clem will pay LP and then get his shares and if LP is to his word today then he will do that immediately.. keep the faith.

They are very encouraging words indeed. Thankyou |

Just a tad impatient.
Are we there yet?

This. Redevelop the rec and put a couple of boozers there too. Nearest pub at the moment is either the Dolphin or the runner. |

For me, if the end of June clem had the opportunity to buy the shares, what's been the delay?
I am still worried on the efl process. Surely if there were no issues, it wouldn't take this long?

We are not going to be a Phoenix club.
Leave it to the legal experts who know what they are doing and it will be done.
Talkshite was a disaster.
