[...]

So what result are we after and what are the implications of it on the club and the ownership?

War?

Can see it now on the horizon.....

'V's cleared from providing bonds and guarantees but the war between India and Pakistan means no funds can be sent as they're needed at home'  - Steve Waggot - June 2025

But the good news is the sales of Callum and Dom and the wage bill cuts mean we can fund ourselves till Jan 2026, the war should be concluded by then !

There will always be an excuse with these cunts

And sadly chunk of our fan base will always lap it up

The Wharton, Szmodic and Raya money is gone so guessing the desperation will increase to get something sorted now. I cant think of anyone in the current squad that would bring in anything like the needed £20m.

That was £30m. Where has it gone?

Agents, players, directors and hangers on from yesteryear.

To bring down the price of season tickets ?

No updates yet.

I’m now on my hols but will try and check again in the morning.

No one hold their breaths though (either in relation to the court’s reliability or mine 😁😁)

Grass seed

BBE lift repairs

Deposit on the new coach lease

Powerwashing the metalwork on the BBE

Fixing the leaky roof

Deals for Adam Forshaw, Cauley Woodrow and Augustus Kargbo (significant investment....)

"Significant investment" for them would be cleaning the Blackburn End bogs once every six months.

I hope the fecking lot of them get called up and put on the front line.

[wilsdenrover]

Still no update.

Maybe that’s good news* as there’s more to type up than ‘it’s too late/no one turned up, we’ll try another time’.

Or maybe I’m just clutching at straws. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

* good news may well not be the right term to use!!

If it ends up with the club being sold or put into administration then it is.

Next hearing 5th August.

What the feck is going on here?

[paullarrygher]

The order from yesterday's hearing hasn't been published yet. 5 August was the listing date from the 25 March hearing.

But then there was the 'surprise' hearing on 24 April that listed the next hearing as 8 May.

Not getting too excited but the fact that hearings are now taking place a few weeks after each other is some progress on the 2/3 month wait there previously was.

[paullarrygher]

Order published and guess what...judge on leave and next listed for 20 May.

Whoever is conducting this pantomime is earning their coin.
