Bolton winding up petition moves closer

[great_fire]

I don't know about Bolton but this whole FFP stuff is winding me up. I know US 'franchising' gets a bad rap but I like the way they have salary caps which lead to a cycle of success rather than 4-5 teams dominating the sports.

Not working as well as it should though as the Patriots seem to be in the Super Bowl final most years.

As usual, nothing will happen and Bolton will sail serenely on with no detrimental effects. The football authorities will see to that.

It is a disgrace to be honest and if they do get the slightest bit of punishment from the FL, it will be totally deserved and long overdue!.

Please don’t be taken in by a winding up order, it’s nothing more than a push and threat Very few materialise.

Aye. This is there 6th one ��

I’m ****ed off that EFL state Bolton haven’t done anything wrong with the Doidge situation even though he wasn’t paid any wages by Bolton .

Can we try that?

Anderson still thinks he hasn’t done anything wrong.
Deluded

Operating on a loss massive debt but the EFL ignore it . Meanwhile we play by the rules and get shafted by clubs in massive debt because they add to the debt buying more players.Wigan as a example . I purpose a new rule if you owe the banks more that 10 million you cannot buy any players till that debt is reduced . Imagine what that would do to football, soon level it up a bit.

Couldn't agree more, would sort football out sharpish, and keep those interested in the game in it, and clean out the trash.

What was your punishment lads, and what did your team do that was so 'wrong' at the time ? (if you dont mind me asking about this ?).

Whereas teams like Bolton can apparently go on flouting the laws and sticking two fingers up at us and at the game in general.
If my team messed up and broke the laws, whether deliberately or accidentally!, then Id expect the proper fines and penalties etc. And surely EVERY single team should also go by those same rules, or is that just an outdated and naive idea on my part eh ?.

Money talks and plans will be in place from those in high office so Bolton don't suffer. A total farce with the massive debt they have and those in charge don't give a flying frig!

In the “live to your means” thread it said Bolton were only £22 million in debt. Which as big as that is it’s still way behind most in this division.

How much debt are they really in?

Loyal, you can bet it's a lot more pal. Like someone posted earlier, the buyers will wait until they're closed down before they step in and pick it up on the cheap.
