He actually tweeted an anti-racism message earlier today, as it happens. Clearly, none of us have much (if any) solid information and speculation always tends to fill that void. I can see the logic in some of what you're saying, but there could be various other explanations for the silence as well.
Like I say, there's little point wasting too much energy on speculation, because whatever the truth is, we can't control it. The club is owned by a private individual and what will be will be. We're in his hands. The only decision I can take is not to buy a new season ticket unless or until new owners are confirmed.
I'm not disagreeing with you. Perhaps we should be told more, if only to convince people like me that if I invest in a new season ticket, the club will be around to fulfil its fixtures. But the reality is, the only people who can tell us are Alan Hardy or the new owners, if they exist, so we cannot do anything but wait until either of them are ready to reveal something, be it good or bad news.
If Hardy is lying I wouldnt want be in his shoes thats for sure.
Imagine sending oldest pro club out of business jeez.
My belief is someone is interested as the HMRC would have nailed us by now they cant go on "Someone will buy us"
Let me put it this way, there are no grounds for optimism at Meadow Lane in terms of the future. By the end of the summer. we might be delighted if we were set up to play Solihull Moors, but that's too ambitious by far in my estimation.

And bear in mind we have history with the HMRC several times, including being the club that was in administration longer than any other.
I too would be surprised if HMRC willingly accepted a delay to the end of the season unless they had been given fairly solid reason to be patient. They're not exactly sentimental about these things. Originally, they wouldn't even countenance four £50k payments spread over April, so something presumably convinced them that their short-term and long-term interests would be served by changing that stance and permitting an extra period of grace. We're trying to draw meaningful conclusions from tiny bits of information. We'll have to wait and see.
