Update seems to be that the chairman (or an other) has stopped being a bell end and made an offer to settle the debt but has till mid day to actually do so....

I remember the days of pressing F5 every 5 mins on here when we took it to the edge!

Edit: Must be lovely to have a local paper that actually gives a shit about a football club...

Even we managed to find a sponsor for a tin shed of a stand and an open empty bank, how the hell have they failed to find a sponsor for an iconic stadium and spent 450k in the process?

Couldn't happen to a nicer club, John McGinlay is a horses arse....

If that does actually happen where does that leave our vegan "friends" up the road at FGR with the £1m transfer of Doidge that has already been agreed?

Something obviously isn't right there at Bolton financially, not sure why the FL sanctioned a £1m signing only 2 months after their players went on strike for not getting their wages paid, back in July, and then this.

Now confirmed https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/45483786 however there are still all manner of skeletons and debts in the closet that remain due going forward.

Can the FA stop a transfer if the buying team cannot afford it? As per my post above this is just a small part of a wider shit storm, with a bell end of a chairman in the middle of it, much talk of billionaire takeovers and a suggestion that these might only proceed if the club went into admin (possibly explaining the stand off as if the creditor secured admin it would allow the Chairman to blame someone else), as per my post of yesterday its worth reading the local rag as a) they seem well informed and b) actually seem to give a shite about the club!

Talking of takeovers, the long running ownership of Charlton seems to be on the line, with the Aussie investors failing to actually agree a deal with the club, this has been hanging around since early last season and apparently had a hand in Robinson leaving them and taking over at the Pox.
