Re: Anyone For Chinese?

That may well be the case now, but it was by no means clear when the point was raised.

Is this the same Zygi Wilf who was done for fraud in New Jersey in 2013? Just curious. TBF, he does seem to have got his shit into one sock since then.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Quite. Do we go out with a whimper or a bang? I wouldn’t be surprised if some smokescreen announcement is made a day or two before the Blackpool game in order to avoid final day drama. To be followed by news that it’s all over a couple of weeks later.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I would tend to agree with paultheroyal, especially if he’s still on a dark blue square on the Monopoly board. If he’s in a squat on the Old Kent Road, he might have run out of cash.

Re: Have your go at being ITK

All the buyers pull out of talks, At the end of the season Dai says he can't afford to keep us afloat any longer and liquidates the club. To liqudate the club he'll need to find buyers for the assets. :roll: Wycombe pay £15 million as the only bidders for the training complex. Offer Reading fans a ...

Each points deduction increases the possibility of relegation, which reduces the value of the club.

Armadillo Roadkill Expect to see him rested from officiating this weekend.


Extremely unlikely, that only happens to Premier League referees, whose mistakes are given high visibility. No-one cares at L1 level.

Re: The phoenix club thread

Completely agree that AFC Reading would be horrible. 1871 Reading would be good, a permanent reminder of the original club. I certainly understand the feeling that it wouldn’t be the same club, but giving up following football seems like allowing Dai to win. The best possible response, if Dai causes...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Hmmm, not sure what I would do. I’m sure there would be a phoenix club, but unless I could guarantee ease of parking or rail journey, I’m not sure if I would be up for that. I would certainly miss the football, but not the journey, which has become increasingly difficult since I arrived in Sussex a ...

Re: Embargos, HMRC Payment defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

It's even more simple than that certainly in situations like ours - you make a rule that an owner cannot loan a club money - if they want to use a benefactor owner model then fine, but you make money when the club makes money when it loses money, you cover it. If an owner chooses not to, s/he has t...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

There are plans for each bus to do two runs so your options will be get there far too early or hang around after the game, the club will also lose the revenue from the matchday parking. Indeed. My season ticket for the car park last season cost more than the one for the football. Getting out of the...

Re: Embargos, HMRC Payment defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

I guess the key question now is how much money, if any, is left from the player sales and whether Dai is still providing any funds. Crunch time comes when the matchday revenue dries up. All that's coming in is next season advance season ticket sales. Even then 20% is paid over to the HMRC. Treading...
