There's a surprise: http://www.thisisswindontownfc.co.uk/display.var.1885652.0.takeover_on_brink_of_collapse.phpANDREW Fitton's Town takeover bid is on the brink of collapse, the Swindon Advertiser understands. A statement is due to be released later today confirming that Fitton's protracted attempt to purchase the County Ground outfit is doomed to failure. The news will throw fresh question marks over Town's immediate future with mountains of unpaid debts threatening to send the club out of business. |

I am not shocked to be honest, does this mean we can have a real manager now?

RIP Swindon ... thats the end folks ... with a collapse comes a 10 point penalty - relegation - no manager wanting to touch us with a bargepole unless they are crap - poor results - falling attendances - failure to meet debts mean a winding up order which will most likely equal the end of the club - too late to protest were done for. I feel sick ...  |

Maybe it's me over reacting, but I think if we really want them out we've got to do more than peaceful marchs or a few chants at the end of the game. No idea what, but something has to be done.

So can we deduce that because certain people would not give up their vision of making a fortune out of a development, they will not sell the club and would rather see the club go out of business?
If this really is the case, I really do hope that these people can sleep at night.
I am not a violent person but can see certain people making life very uncomfortable for certain individuals should the full details ever become public knowledge.

Are there still any other shareholders apart from SSW, MD etc? If so, does anyone know percentages?
