    I was told when AH took over the club that he was a good choice because he was a sound businessman who's companies didn't have any debt. Turns out his financial acumen is akin to a 12 year old given free reign with a credit card.

    He probably share John McDonnell's Abacus as well.

    Izale Mcleod, Enzio, Harry Kewell.

    Never in the history of human endeavour was so much money paid to one club for so little.

    Oh for ****'s sake. We owe money to a club because we took their manager, whom we then sacked 10 weeks later despite results being OK. Classic Notts.

    And why the hell do we owe Wycombe money? Why were we signing players we couldn't afford?

    It's just endless. I've never known such rank incompetence. If you tried to make more of a mess than Hardy has, you'd struggle. It's just mind-boggling.

    We absolutely deserve to be where we are - not the fans, of course, but the club as a business. It's been run by absolute amateurs for years.

    What an absolute buffoon Hardy has turned out to be. How he can get out of bed in a morning i do not know. In some ways I feel very sorry for him, no matter how thick his skin and despite his arrogance he must now surely be cringing at his past actions and the effect they have had on so many people, Paragon employees, Notts fans and probably most pertinently his family. It can't be comfortable living with that knowledge and nothing he does now will buy him any credibility in this region for a long time to come. I think he genuinely meant well when he bought the club and promoted the it well initially. How and why it went so badly wrong are question that will probably remain unanswered. He's not the first person to ruin a football club and he won't be the last. His last action will hopefully be a positive one, ensure the club is sold to credible buyers (assuming there are any) who have an appreciation for what a football club means to a community.

    It’s like an ongoing nightmare. It seems like every day at the moment something is coming out that is a cause for concern.

    How much more Spaghetti is going to be unravelled before we get to the truth as to what has been or is really going on at the club and the level of debt and it’s finances since the last accounts were published in June 2017.

    The accounts for June 17 to June 18 are overdue and should have been filed at Companies House on 31st March 2019. These are 2 1/2 months late.

    The public record only knows the clubs filed accounts for the first six months of Alan Hardy’s rein as chairman yet we are 2 1/2 years in.

    Just to play Devil's Advocate and calm down for a moment, do we even know that these apparent debts to Crawley and Wycombe have not already been included in the known debts and disclosed to potential purchasers? The Matt Davies story doesn't appear to specify that they are 'newly discovered', undisclosed' or even confirmed debts after all.

    "Notts County are understood to owe money to both Crawley Town and Wycombe Wanderers"

    "The Magpies are believed to still be in debt to Crawley over the compensation package agreed when they appointed Harry Kewell, who signed a three-year deal but was sacked 10 weeks later in November.

    His replacement, Neal Ardley, signed veteran striker Mackail-Smith on loan until the end of the season, but Wycombe are understood to still be waiting for cash related to that deal."
