Didn't he fail to buy Falkirk?

Yes. If this is the sort of absolute clown Donald was thinking of selling to then I’ve got absolutely zero confidence in him selling to someone able to take the club forward.

We will probably end up with the someone like that idiot who changed Cardiff’s colours to red or the prat who wanted to rename Hull.

Blue birds to red 🤦‍♂️

What was it they wanted to change too again?

Was it Hull City Tigers FC or something? :lol:

Hearing Mark Campbell looking to broker a deal to try & buy Safc again, I hope he doesn’t succeed from what I heard of the mess created last time but let’s see,
Also b4 I get dogs abuse, I don’t have any vested interest in who buys, My only interest is I want Safc to be better.

If this f***ing bell gets anywhere near the club then I will truly give up on football. I’d rather Donald stayed and that’s saying something because I think he’s utterly clueless too.
 
I don't know if anyone has mentioned it but they have extended the filing deadline by three months. This has only been allowed recently because of Covid.

A decently run company should not really need an extra three months to complete their accounts, IMHO.

Don’t know what exactly happened with Campbell last time, but he was definitely shown around the stadium and introduced to people as “the new boss” I think one of his investors was French

He didn’t have the wherewithal to purchase f***ing Falkirk, swapping Donald and company for someone like this would be utterly pointless.

Agree with the sentiment. Ours were due today and we're filed before this all kicked off. The company I work for not safc.

However last year safc accounts weren't signed off till April 26th.so can see why they were extended this year.

Most companies are taking advantage of this. Mrs G's response (as someone who's involved in a number of professional groups covering a lot of companies) was "Isn't everyone". The problems not finalising the numbers (that will have been done months ago), but in the fact that companies and their advisers have furloughed the staff who would normally do the filing. Most directors wouldn't know where to start. In our case, the auditors are also a potential logjam. They're a small Oxfordshire firm with a client base primarily owner-managed companies, who typically want as little information as possible in the public domain, and then as late as possible. They do all the company secretarial work for the club, and their MO seems to be to sign off just before the deadline. I wouldn't be surprised if they're simply requesting the deadline for all of their clients month by month.

To be fair. I have extended a client's accounts. We couldn't properly go through the stuff so it was the best way forward. But these people should have this done by end of September at latest. I suppose they are keeping stuff out of public domain but it sends the wrong signal IMHO.

i get all that but it is very poor a company the size of SAFC cannot file on time.

They almost certainly could have. I'd be looking to the auditors, not the club, here. In Short's time, they were usually signed off in January (but still not filed until the deadline). You can have the accounts ready in no time, but if the auditors son't schedule their time till much later, you're stuffed.

Auditors will get in whenever you wish. back in my very dim and distant past I worked for a firm and we signed December accounts for a US subsidiary before the end of January.

this will be the directors' decision. IMHO.
