fair enough, sure Macca will be fine, be nice to see them back in the football league as quick as possible. All they need is an ambitious owner to run them sensibly.

I have ambition to win the lottery, but it's not sensible to bank on it.

Feel for their fans even if they were not huge in number, but a it's sign of the unsustainability of football at our level.

Hope so too, Thing is when these clubs are "Sold" they are to people who have not got a pot to **** in, It has nothing to do with the "Fans owned vs Sugar Daddy" A "Sugar Daddy" is someone who has money to throw about, These owners have nothing, They aint Sugar Daddies, They are frausters and shisters and we need to look to the EFL/FA about their ownership critiea as it obviously doesn't work, To have their court cases keeping being ajourned just because some smart arsed lawyer gives out some flannel and the judge believes it is also a problem, That just puts off the enevitable.

it’s the same with all clubs and even companies when it comes to winding up petitions.

the EFL fit and proper persons test needs improving but in some cases these people are the only show in town so the EFL will let them take control of the clubs so that if/when they fail they don’t get the blame.

Then the EFL has to have the balls, Even if these people are the only ones with an "Offer" on the table, to say sorry we don't think you're the right person to take on this club. Even the PL did that with the Newcastle deal, Something fishy with it and they said no.
