Does it get any worse

[penno13]

We are at the lowest point in our history.

Thanks Stewart!!!

We haven’t hit rock bottom yet boys... it’ll get worse

My mate has cancer. He's getting the result of his scan today. Dry yer eyes, mate.

Hope it went well for him.

 

[Lord Alfred]

We’ve just appointed a proven League One manager with a track record of getting promotion out of this league on a shoestring budget.

My but some people swallow any old shite.

He'll keep us up

Hope it went well for him.

Cheers, Sid, la. It did. He told me last night that the lymphoma had not spread into his chest & that the tumour in his stomach had reduced in size by more than half. He's due another session of chemotherapy today, but said he'll be skipping in with a smile! Thanks for showing concern. Much appreciated.

No problem. Really pleased to hear the good news. Keep on keeping on thecloughywobble's marra.

You could be a politician or a mag, with your ability to twist fact.

what have I said there that’s not true?

 

[Smiler]

Looks like no investment or takeover,9th in the 3rd tier, lacklustre new managerial appointment, rumours of no scouting network.

Is this a new low point in our history from which we will kick on or will be plumb even lower depths?

Every month since failing to get automatic promotion brings a new low point in our history and it's been gradually getting worse ever since. Hopefully Parkinson can halt the slide and turn us around, we may get worse first before he or someone else does though

Wait until the asset stripping starts

The owners are going to sell off parts of the business to pay themselves dividends? News to me, and also illegal until the club's accumulated losses are cleared and there are distributable reserves. Unless, of course, you don't know what asset stripping is (the clue is in my first sentence).

Sold as apartments imo.

On green belt? That'll be interesting.

Nice one, Sid, la. He's physically fit (ex professional sportsman) & has a great attitude, which I think both help. But any & arl positive vibes gratefully accepted! It's yet another an area of human knowledge that's quite sparse, the interaction between mind & body, but I believe (without much, if any, proof) that they (mind & body) are really one & the same & I think that's where conventional Western medical science sometimes falls short.

Yet another massive fanny gush thread...Aye we get it..now lets get on with it..

Read the post mate. It's a statement of facts then a question.

"Looks like no investment or takeover,9th in the 3rd tier, lacklustre new managerial appointment, rumours of no scouting network ..."

It isn't a statement of facts. 'Looks like' is an opinion. 'Lacklustre' is your judgemental opinion. 'Rumours' is too vague to be a fact without supporting evidence.

I hope you mates alright, wish him my best,

It’s going to get a lot worse

What? Bankruptcy? League 2? Conference football? How much worse do you see it getting?

 

[thecloughywobble]

I hope you mates alright, wish him my best,

That's very kind of you, marra. If you continue a little further on the thread, you'll see that I've given a positive update (which I'm far too lazy to repeat, ha, ha). All positive thoughts & wishes gratefully received on his behalf, with thanks.

If they sell the ground and the AOL and lease it back well thats the end for me !The abstruse parachute payeent farrago is bad enough but selling of the ground will be the final straw for many!

 

[Onlyfoolsrushin]

IS being in League 1 really a more attractive proposition for investors? A minimum of two years away from Premier League football? Sounds a bit of a fallacy to me.

Remind me of all the other league 1 teams that can attract gates of 30,000+ punters and many other fans to whom you can sell product and merchandise if you make improvements to the business.

If we aren't attractive at all, why are business people interested in taking us on. Most business people will look to maximise their gain and their chances of making that gain. There's plenty out there.

I'm wondering if some of the issue is with paying off Ellis if we do get some success back. Now that may be more difficult to overcome.

Of course it could get worse. Sizzlers could increase their prices on Tuesday.
