help_shiny Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 It looks like an inevitable crash coming,worrying times for them.Didnt they take a wonga style loan out with Gigg Lane as collateral? Someone playing at Championship Manager for real then leaving a wreck behind.I have no strong feelings either way about them but as a small Lancastrian club struggling in the shadows of bigger neighbours I hope they somehow survive (& we dick them next season obviously) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostofcecere Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 (edited) The thing is, I doubt to many local football fans will look favourably upon them if and when they come shaking their buckets at us again. There's nothing unfortunate about them being in the :censored: this time, it just been stupidity with the way they've been throwing the cash about.... I mean renting the Carrington training off City for instance. WTF!! Edited May 20, 2016 by ghostofcecere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youngen Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Championship manager references never wash with me. The only team doing a football manager style go of it are AFC Wimbledon, literally sponsored by Sports Interactive, and theyre doing excellently.

Stevie_J Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 And don't forget the absolute nonsense they created in April 2013. Literally turning money away and creating a nasty situation/atmosphere. Sympathy will short. I'd sympathise with their fans. It's not their fault their owners appear to be running the club so recklessly, just like it wasn't ours when Chris Moore did the same at Latics. There seems to be something of a consensus that if you've been in the :censored: before, you should learn your lesson and never end up there again, but really it's all completely outside of the fans' control, just like it would be if someone was doing the same at Oldham. Even the Trust couldn't really do anything to stop it happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most fans on the whole didn't give a :censored: about the implications of what Chris Moore was doing if it went tits up. A small section of fans did and were derived because of it. I can imagine a similar situation over at Gigg Lane right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the fans' fault. It could happen to any of us. Knobhead owners should be banned for life for having anything to do with football.

I think that a lot of us suspect that the results for the year to 31st May 2016 will show high losses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lags Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 On the other side of the coin ( Yet I wouldn't want to play way way beyond a clubs means) I wonder how much likes of Bournemouth were in for to get to the Premier league. Surely marching from League two to the premier cost the club far more than revenue. Fortunately for them it's paid off handsomely especially with this years bumper TV package that's now in effect payable for 5 seasons even if they went down next season.

Bournemouth had some rich Russian geezer backing them, the Bury bloke might have a few quid, but not I suspect to be bank rolling them to the level at which they have been spending. Alarmingly there's seems to be quite a large number of Latics fans on here who would like us to follow the Bury model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prize is so big now that you could spend an awful lot of money and get nowhere near though. Even being a billionaire is nowt special in the Premiership now. If I was reach and wanted a vanity project I'd start about 8 levels down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
