Bolton and Bury games likely to be suspended....latest update, what a mess.

I think that many on here feel rightly or wrongly that there is an uneven playing field particularly in Bolton's case. In my opinion what they did to Doncaster was wrong as they did not consult either the club or the organising body.

Additionally, there is at this moment a league that has some clubs (Millers) having played 3 and others on 5. Yes I know it will even itself out but it still does not feel right. We, along with Luton and Bournemouth were given huge point penalties and had had to put our houses in order. At the moment the EFL have a kid glove approach. I do not think that is to the benefit of Bolton or Bury in the long run. It would be a sad day but other clubs have made comebacks after similar experiences. For example Accrington, Newport and Wimbledon.

Just on the point of the kid glove approach. Of course we were made to put our house in order. But remember it took us 7 years from Millers 05 going bust, leaving Millmoor and finally getting back to playing back in Rotherham and getting the club on an even keel.

The thing is WanChai that either the rules were different back when we were in trouble, or we gave solid assurances to the football league that we were capable of fulfilling our fixtures and also financially viable.
As has already been posted, we never had a match called off, either by the football league or just ourselves deciding we didn't want to play ,like Bolton.
Someone picked up on when I said a couple of weeks ago that I didn't want any team to go under, and they said they couldn't understand that, but my point is that by all means kick em out of the league because if ,for whatever reason, they can't fulfil their fixtures, but I most certainly don't want to see any team go bust, especially teams with the history that both Bolton and Bury have, but if they have to play their football in non league until they can regroup then so be it, but at the moment our division is being turned into what could become an unfair joke.
