Their job too sell the club or sell everything untill nowts left ?Swindon, their job is to sell the club ....... Not play PR gurus like in Ab Fab.
If they tell us feck all until a deal's done, then personally, don't give a toss.

Not disputing the young lads are doing a great job, but you can tell PR is not the admin’s strong point. They should be holding regular briefings with our local media giving our local journalists the latest information and the opportunity to ask questions off the back of it. What we have at the moment is Harry and his excitable sidekick Jay with a hotline to Paul Stanley via Twitter feeding back short snippets similar to everyone’s favourite man in the know Nixon. And because there is no information coming out apart from sporadic statements on the website everyone is lapping it up and hoping every tour of the estate is an imminent new owner (sorry Mooney). Sorry to sound off, but I want proper updates from the administrators not snapshot Twitter updates from two budding sports reporters who are doing it on social media from their bedrooms.
There is still some Comms capacity at the club because we are still getting the odd update on the website so let’s put that to good use by giving us some video updates from Stanley or a Q&A on the website where they answer fans’ concerns in an open and honest way. Stanley and Krasner could even do a Facebook live Q&A one lunchtime
Ideally, the former. Obviously.Their job too sell the club or sell everything untill nowts left ?
If I was advising Stanley I would be telling him to dial down the social interaction and do it more professionally. I don’t know how good the local media is as I live 165 miles away and the snippets I get off Wigan Today are not really an accurate gauge of their coverageYou are diagnosing the issue correctly but I think putting the cause of it as Admins fault rather than the local press is the wrong way round. Admin are clearly happy to talk and if only Harry and Jay are engaging them then Admin will just tell them rather than chasing the local press to do their job. At other clubs admin probably spoke to the local press rather than young journalism students but at other clubs they probably had a more active and engaged local press so there was no need.
The local press has always been poor - admin hasn't changed that just highlighted how bad it it. If local press was up to scratch Harry and Jay wouldn't get the opportunity they have - just servicing the gap in the market.
Chippy too thats bolloxed mi onion rings up lolIdeally, the former. Obviously.
If they sell the club, but one of the training grounds goes, and the chippy too, then is that too bad an outcome?
Plus the new owner. Would have to pass the fit and proper test. And I’m sure the Efl will drag that on as long as they can. Wasted 500 g on that
Id sell the chippy regardless. Cant see it going for a lot though can you? Whos gonna want thatIdeally, the former. Obviously.

Posted on here. As soon as the bookies payed out on Barnsley staying up and us going down. And they did. Day after the Fulham game. That was our chance gone. No way could they overturn that I thought we had a chance up to that point.Hindsight is a truly wonderful thing, glad to see you've joined that elite club John - The Hindsight Brigade.
Wonder what you'd be saying if they had be successful in the appeal. IMHO the appeal had to be done otherwise they'd have been slated for not exploring all possibilities or chances to get the points overturned.
We agree on summat C_Latic.I only want to hear from the administrators from now until the 31st if we have a buyer. I don’t need pointless updates on meaningless waffle everyday from some kiddies on social media. When they have something important to say (like today), release a statement on the site. End of story.
Just wondering - if the potential buyers are standing by while the admins are fire selling assets which could be sold for much more out of admin - why did the admins spunk 500k on an appeal to keep us in the championship
I dont understand why potential buyers are standing by watching these players sold for peanutsJust wondering - if the potential buyers are standing by while the admins are fire selling assets which could be sold for much more out of admin - why did the admins spunk 500k on an appeal to keep us in the championship
Get that 100% but if none of these alledged buyers can afford to fund in L1 why bother as they certainly wouldn't have been able to manage in the champ.Because the world and his wife (outside of those connected to the EFL ......... and Barnsley) thought we had a bloody good shot at getting the penalty reduced.

Despite the rights and wrongs if the admins had come clean on this and not challenged don't think most would have had a problem with it
