Always sad to see a club hit trouble. They spent extremely irresponsibly for a while. Wonder if they have an attacking left back to spare.

Shocking really. Makes you wonder how and why these people are allowed to buy a football club.

It's the lack of oversight and avoidance of responsibility that is so concerning
The "owners " seemed able to act with impunity

Talk about "too many cooks" (or should that be CROOKS ? ).A very complicated situation.
If they go under & bearing in mind Bury won promotion will that mean a reprieve for a relegated team & another coming up from the Conference ?

I doubt it at this stage, once the fixtures are released tomorrow it would just mean Bury's fixtures being removed and this division having 23 teams for the season.
