There'll need to be some very good security as feelings could be running very high. I'm surprised they've agreed to do this but fair play to them for stepping into the lion's den....

Actually looks like the two of them have a decent relationship. To me the message they are sending out is that they are as frustrated as we are (though they’re getting very well paid to be frustrated) and Short is the problem. Don’t like the cut of Bain’s job but fair play for fronting up-unlike his boss.

I agree.
But when the chance does arise and these groups get invited in, the people attending shouldn’t have personal agendas that stop them asking difficult questions.

For example, If you have business dealings with the club are you going to rock the boat?

If you work for the club, get perks or just feel special because you’re in the same room as a player, manager or ceo, are you going to jeopardise that by asking difficult questions?

So making the CEO feel awkward will somehow deliver a footy team? He'll nod the head, look at his watch, tick the box......supporter meeting done...

Administration would be better for us than Short.

Think about it. We're going down anyway, perhaps. What price ten or fifteen points to wipe a shit tonne of debt?

No way it'll happen, given Ellis is our main creditor.

Really? I don't think you understand what going into administration would mean.

Its not just a point deduction and the debts are wiped out like magic. Assets are sold off, given that we have no players of substantial value that leaves the Stadium and the Academy of any real value. Given the amount of debt there is there would be a very real risk that SAFC would cease to exist.

Not being funny, or trying to pick a fight, but if this was the case, how come it didn't happen to Leicester?

I’ve no clue what you’re talking about.

All I want is capable adults with no hidden agendas to attend these meetings as representatives of the fans.
I want them to have open and frank dialogue about what is happening to the club we all love.

Some of those attending at present, in my opinion, aren’t capable of this.

Or indeed, any club which has played in the top two divisions of English football. No English League club has gone out of existence since Aldershot did in 1992, although others, like Chester, Maidstone and Scarborough have done so since dropping out the League.

To be fair, I've changed my mind now I've seen someone of the League One FFP rules. We don't need to do it.

However, the stadium is a red herring. Nobody would buy it, other than - perhaps - the council. The only club who lost their stadium during adminstration is Leeds and they lost it to the council who leased it back for like £1 or something. There is no market for a 49000 stadium in Sunderland, should barely need saying.

You can rip up contracts during adminstration. Not saying it's a picnic, but saying, it has its pluses...
