Yeah, this was bound to happen sooner or later. The amount of money needed to compete in the second tier these days is staggering, and far more than any club can bring in through revenue. The recent info about Forest's spending and loss just goes to show.
All it takes is one rich and profligate owner to lose interest and pretty much any club in the Championship could go under. The only thing that can save these clubs is another, richer owner coming in and taking on the debt - but there are only so many of those around. The whole thing is a house of cards.
It used to be that you needed a mega-rich owner to win the Premier League - like when Abramovic arrived at Chelsea. But now you need it just to survive as a professional club in pretty much any division. With so many clubs over-spending, it's a matter of time until we see clubs disappearing completely. It's a tragedy for the fans and communities.
Apparently Bolton have cancelled all bookings regarding their conferencing bits and hotel. I don't think this will be a happy outcome sadly
Let's not get bogged down in semantics, Sid. You know what I mean. Obviously the death of a football club cannot be compared to the death of a person, but the loss of generations' worth of history and heritage, not to mention the role football clubs play in bringing people and whole communities together, could be considered tragic.
Tragic: causing or characterised by extreme distress and sorrow.
If Notts County disappearing wouldn't cause you extreme sorrow, the club obviously doesn't mean as much to you as it does to me.
Well argued, mate, and yes I would be very upset if we disappear as a club but having had more than my fair share of tragedy involving loss of life these last ten years, I think that to call the loss of a club a tragedy is inflated language not mere semantics.
I have lost people too, and I totally understand what you are saying. But it's all about context. In the context of football, losing a club with a long tradition and big support is tragic. Of course, none of this compares to losing a loved one. I'm sure you understand the nuance.
