A future without Steve Lansdown. How will we cope? Depends on who buys the club. We’ve all heard of clubs getting taken over and the owners turn out to be crap. However we also here of new owners doing a good job…….. Its the same as appointing a manager - it’s impossible to predict how they’ll do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted January 5, 2023 Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 Obviously a new owner would have to factor in our current position financially into his following 2 year business plan. Both FFP and financially in general, solvency and proof of funds etc. If EFL aren't satisfied then things could stall etc. There were some changes this summer tightening up criteria for new owners, been an ongoing process for about 2 years now maybe more. Wonder what type of owner he would sell it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s not a rumour and I certainly haven’t heard of any from any source that’s interested buying the club - but then any negotiations on that take place at a level that’s above the heads of us regular fans.

Very true Although good example of teams that got Europe after being in the champ for a while are hull, Swansea and wolves so not impossible if we got a new owner who walks the walk instead of taking the talk . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FNQ Posted January 5, 2023 Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 Wally might snap us up, merge us with the sags and relocate the whole thing to the mem… rugby and all.. NP could become the wife beaters assistant. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sglosbcfc Posted January 5, 2023 Report Share Posted January 5, 2023 I'd rather stick with the Lansdowns personally. People that actually care about the club. Unless of course we could get taken over by wealthy foreigners like Rovers, with an open cheque book to fire them all the way to um mid table League One. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
