Stop extending the deadline and leave it until the seasons over.That at least is a natural cut off point.

Totally agree , the end of season makes sense for everyone, these people won't be rushed into anything and nor would I when parting with 30m when if we go down it could be 15/20m.

This man ruined LEEDS and LUTON he worries me more than the prospect of relegation.

He has had to make a public apology about NW leaving what other lies has he been feeding us.

This roller coaster I am on just won't stop.

Fair replies - maybe the deadlines have backfired - particularly the first one which was never going to be met by anyone. however this deadline may be significant - if there is no real interest by Friday then the chances of a deal being done by the end of the season are slim - if no one is prepared to put down a proof of intent how serious are the alleged offers - too often other clubs have had interested parties who have evaporated away when they have got to the "show me your money" stage.

We do not have the luxury of time to waste on timewasters.

A lie is halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its boots on

Sainsburys do not have a lease on their store - they own it outright together with both carparks.

Two different administrators - 2 different criteria.

PwC could not care less if the ground is sold by the end of the season. they have no big deadline. at present the rent is being paid at a high rate. If they do not get what they consider a fair price for the ground then

a. they keep on getting the rent while the club is in business

b. the club goes out of business and they have an asset worth more to be sold.

If you ignore the window dressing about not wanting to put the club out of business etc either way they win

BG on the other hand does want to sell the club however:-

a. someone has to want to buy it and as at today no one has actually made a firm offer. he hasn't put a price on the club - he is waiting for offers - so how can he reduce the asking price? The £10m is not an asking price it is just a sum of money buyers must show they have to show they are serious - that could be spent on the club/the ground/satisfying the FL.

b. He does have some constraints - Agilo are not prepared to negotiate the amount owed to them - £5.5m so any offer is going to have to be at least that. What Agilo will do if there is no offer of that amount is not clear but at present that is what they are insisting on.

c. While it isn't really his concern if any buyer can then afford to run the club the inference given by the FL in our meeting with them was that in order to agree to transfer over the right to play in the league they need to see that the new owners are of sufficiently financial standing to fund the team through the next season - with losses of around £8m that may well put buyers off and nothing can be done about that at all other than reduce losses as much as possible - it may be possible to get it down to something more manageable like £3/£4m

Call me a cynical git (many have) but surely there are going to be buyers out there waiting to see what happens at the end of the season. BG has repeatedly said a Championship club is more valuable than a League 1 club, and as we continue to look like we'll be struggling to aviod the drop, why would anyone show their hand too early?

“My experience of life is that it is not divided up into genres; it’s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel. You know, with a bit of pornography if you’re lucky."

Agree with the other posters if your selling your house you dont state that theres a 2 or 3 week deadline,and as for unrealistic purchasers of the club,its like someone who views your House with no intention of buying,but just wants to see what your kitchen looks like.My guess is that there vare interested parties they are in turn waiting to see how the season pans out and Brenda is just trying to weasle out a few more buyers.
