In what sense is it goodnight?
Season starts in 5 weeks. Players are likely to walk if not paid. No incoming transfers allowed. Unable to fulfil fixtures = kaboom |

I can’t see us not being able to fulfil fixtures, I’m confident we will be able to field a team in 5 weeks time and the takeover will be sorted by then.
What that team will look like - who knows, but I’ve written this upcoming season off already anyway.
The takeover will be sorted, if it takes 4 weeks then it takes 4 weeks, and we may have a terrible starting 11, but we will have a football club and that’s the most important thing.

You may be right. But it’s just wishful thinking, really.

Clem would need to file a case to request such an action - would take a few weeks most likely. Until then Power is in a legal position of knowing he has to sell, but the date isn't yet fixed.
Such a hearing was already due to happen. Only a date was not set. It appears Power might have agreed to sell the shares, thus deferring the hearing that was supposed to decide this, only then for him to start stalling. I wonder if the devious little shit agreed to the share sale knowing he would then be able to play such shenanigans. (contempt of court?) The case has already been filed. It's already been debated in court and is the reason Power was expected to provide evidence last week that he could afford to run the club. Surely all it would need is for them to book a slot in court? Not only that, but the judge didn't order the sale at the last hearing because Power said he could fund the club. Recent events make it clear that that much was bollocks. |

By not paying the players wages are they in breach of contract meaning the players can bugger off if they so wish??
The one silver lining out of all this |

I’ve got a horrible conspiracy theory whirling round my head.

No. It’s mad! Go on. The worst we will do is relentlessly take the piss. But that's normal |

I was thinking.
What would have happened if there was no Clem. No Axis. Power would have eroded the club, put it in admin and more than likely put us into non league.
But. There would still be a club. Still at the CG. Probably bought out of Admin by another chancer looking for a payday.
But. There would still be a club.
Now, between them Power/Axis seem capable of destroying the club completely. Phoenix Swindon would pop up at a tiny ground somewhere - much like the newly formed Bury.
What to do with the CG now. I think I know how that would end.

We would then have to adopt Swindon Supermarine and get them up the leagues!
