They’re owned by *****.Clubs at League one and League two with wealthy owners will take advantage of the situation to get their squads ready! Mansfield Town have already signed new players and Forest Green Rovers already have a couple in and another one signing on Monday!
They’re owned by *****.
Any rich idiot can get a non-league team into League 1 within a few years.?????? Are they? Dale Vince at Forest Green Rovers is a brilliant chairman and a bloody good businessman!
Any rich idiot can get a non-league team into League 1 within a few years.
To be fair he tried doing that by being head coach as well as owner!Apart from Glenn Tamplin

FGR lost £12 million over six years to get to League 2, paying £172 for every £100 of income they earned.Not true! Many have failed! Also, its being sustainable when you get there! Since reaching the football league FGR have made a few million from transfer fees and sell ons! Very healthy position without the chairmans money!
Something I dont think has been mentioned is that since the return of football a few weeks ago Wigan Athletic have played 3 matches and won them all thus taking them well clear of the bottom 3 before going into administration was announced!
Im guessing that if there is this bet on the them getting relegated they were expecting Wigan Athletic to go down without the administrators being appointed and not needing the 12 point deduction!
Que??Let’s not get the wrong idea here. If someone sells a business to a twat then it’s the responsibility and fault of the seller. Don’t lay the responsibility at the EFL.
It’s a business decision. I’d be interested to know what legal right the EFL has in having a say in business decisions, beit new owners, a new stadium or a new kit.Que??
It might be the previous owners “fault” that a club has ended up in poor hands. But he/they won’t give two hoots about what happens in the future.
There most definitely is a responsibility on the EFL to keep member clubs (and owners) of the EFL trustworthy.

It’s a nicety and we’re sure as glad that it’s there, even if it can’t seem to tell that a new owner’s address is at the equivalent to WHSmith in Westfield Stratford. Us fans lay all responsibility at the hands of the EFL.

I know it’s a business decision. That’s why an owner couldn’t give a toss about who he sells it to so long as he gets his money. And you have to have a governing body to regulate the membership as Captain has just explained.
Same in many walks of life and many professions. Doctors, accountants, legal firms, electrical companies. You can’t practice unless you are a member and follow the rules.
That only works if the buyer intends to run the business as football club. If their only intention is profit from the sale of a club's assets (like the guy who owns Bury) then the EFLs rules are meaningless
. As you will almost certainly realised I intended to put million after £62I don't think £62 pa is all that much tbh. I think qualifying for the Johnstones Paint Trophy would cover it.
Because that business (football club) has to meet certain criteria to be a member of the EFL. Part of that criteria is the owner passing the EFL "fit and proper" test. The EFL have the power to withdraw membership if the club do not meet certain parts of the EFL criteria of membership, as they did with Bury.
The EFL fit and proper persons test is bullshit and clearly not fit for purpose, as are half the EFL board.
Obviously Roone. Just teasing. It won't be long before you can spot plenty of mistakes in my posts and get your own back.. As you will almost certainly realised I intended to put million after £62
