    Would ALK not be tempted to sell players cash in and then default on the repayment to force a exit.. I would image a exit looks more appealing than the challege ahead.
    I tend to agree FTD-ALK only wanted a PL club.All their calculations were based on BFC being in the PL and therefore if the situation is as bad as is being written about then they know there is very little chance of an immediate return to the PL.

    I accept all of that CIB , but I have a strange feeling things must have been a lot worse before the yanks arrived than were led to believe.

    I mean they didn’t buy us as a cash cow did they ? And I still insist they actually stumped up monies for players when the previous regime didn’t for several years. Collins 12 mill Robert’s 3.5mill cornet 13.5mill ive discounted weghorst because he wasn’t planned on the back of wood jumping ship.

    So the leverage buy out is bad and it shouldn’t have been allowed to happen , but I still refuse to blame them for our relegation or academy status , that lies with previous directors and sad to say the previous manager - I know we all loved appreciated what he did for us but we couldn’t win games - we threw way 6 winning positions at the season start ( a record ) for no
    Points.

    So whilst I’m with you all that it’s a bad situation now I really can’t see past the lies from Garlick and crew and the EPL actually letting the deal happen in the first place ( fit and proper is the terminology).

    From the yanks point of view - we’re led to believe they’re business men - I can’t believe they had a plan / strategy without the risk element included in it - not really business men without one and if they bought ( so called ) Burnley for Premier league status - stability you only have to look back over the last 3 seasons to know that isn’t guaranteed- in fact nothing mis guaranteed in football the old saying too good to go down and all that.

    I’m going to reserve judgment at the minute and see how we deal with this before I go all in and slag them off.

    You could be right Army but when I saw Pace watching the Everton game-he looked like a dead man walking when we were losing.We will all know soon enough.
