Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I assume June 30th is the key date for us to hopefully know what is happening, due to player contracts and registering ourselves for next season Unfortunately I doubt any takeover will be in time to re-sign out of contract players such as Azeez and so we will likely lose them and have yet another m...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Good to hear from Nigel Howe. The club sale is in good hands as I absolutely believe he cares about the club. But even being optimistic it sounds as though the process will take 8-10 weeks to complete at best and that assumes that Dai doesn't move the goal posts (perhaps literally) yet again. We ca...

But did you have the covid vaccine OMA?

No I didn't have it based purely off of the advice Andrew1957 gave us.


The estimated 17,000,000 globally who died shortly after having the covid vaccines should have listened to me too.

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

Assuming we just get 2 more points deducted and no more before the season end, I would much rather lose 2 points and keep Bearwood as part of a future sale than Bearwood being sold just to avoid a deduction. The win against Cambridge gives us a bit of a buffer and we can hopefully beat Northampton t...

Re: #SellBeforeWeDai (to someone fit and proper)“ supporters action group

I fully expect that Howe will conclude the negotiation with excellent new owners, but just as he lifts his pen to sign the contract Mr. Dai will realise how much he truly loves the club and that he would rather Dai than sell it and he will carry on next season trying to bring back the glory days but...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Some are talking about Bearwood and the Academy being too expensive in L1 but I disagree. Surely the Academy can be a very profitable entity if you have owners with money. The likes of Nelson Abbey could have been sold in a couple of years for millions if he kept progressing as he was let alone Vic...

Re: Wycombe will be culpable.

When Reading bought Kevin Doyle for £60k, and then bought out the remaining clauses in the contract from Cork for a pittance when they were about to go out of business, and it was obvious to everyone that he was worth multiple millions, were we culpable? Yes i suppose. But we still did it. My recol...

Re: #SellBeforeWeDai (to someone fit and proper)“ supporters action group

It's against UK company law for an owner to take money out of an insolvent company. As others have said Dai owns Bearwood separately and so not an asset of the club and so it would not be illegal. As I also said above without Bearwood and the Academy the club is likely unsaleable. Only a truly insa...

Re: #SellBeforeWeDai (to someone fit and proper)“ supporters action group

Delboy What about the staff surely redundancies if the deal goes ahead


Sadly doubt anyone will get any payments as the club has no money or assets. Doubt Dai will fund redundancy payments out of the good of his heart as he doesn’t have one.

Re: #SellBeforeWeDai (to someone fit and proper)“ supporters action group

As far as I can see the only way you can make sense of the decision to sell the training ground is if Dai is going to pocket that money. He would be crazy to put it in the club as it will just get squandered and he has effectively made the club unsaleable by his action. So looks to me like this is ...

Please for love of God no pitch invasions at the MadStad. Lets at least make sure we can stay up in theory If people really want to cause chaos, buy tickets to random other L1 games that are nothing to do with us and pitch invade there. Fukk up the league and make everyone take notice. But at least...

Re: If a buyer isn’t going to happen, would you rather?

I cannot see that limping on beyond the end if this season is a likely outcome. The owner for whatever reason is clearly not spending any more money on the club and so if he does not sell before next season it is very unlikely we will be allowed to start the season in either L1 or L2 as we would be ...

Re: Confrimed - Abbey and Holmes going

Really depressing time to be an RFC fan losing young starts like Vickers Abbey and Harris. The future of the club being sold off for peanuts. What a disgrace. However, we might just about get away with these sales and survive in League 1 - but if we also lose Azeez to Plymouth as well (let alone the...
