    I like Overson. No agendas, doesn't bother sitting in the boardroom, no real commercial incentives for investing into the club anymore - just someone who genuinely wants to help where he can.

    That's the funny thing. Wasps bleat on about how deceptive SISU are by hiding vital information. I think that's the finest slice of sanctimoniousness hypocrisy I've ever heard.

    Either way NDA's are legally binding and IF he'd submitted genuine interest he would have been forced to sign one. The fact that he's discussing what was going on with people breaches this and as such says to me that no definitive interest could've been presented to SISU. Hoffman is far from...

    Hence why he almost certainly doesn't have sky blue blood running through his veins because a man in his position shouldn't be using his status to create further division in a fanbase that is already monumentally pissed off. He's been nothing but a thorn in the side of SISU as well as the club...

    I've always said that IMO he was never completely serious about purchasing the club and simply popped up during times of crisis to manipulate fans into thinking he's the club's knight in shining armour. The people he associates with, the timing of his supposed bids and his bizarre interviews in...

    Come on you can't genuinely believe the nonsense you've just spouted. What deal has he ever had that appeared genuine or generous? Please enlighten us all.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    The lack of PPE is obviously shocking but the fact that up to half of Europe's deaths are in care homes is absolutely appalling. Interesting article from a GP in the UK who claims that her early warnings were ignored by public health authorities. Forget heads rolling there could well be legal...

    It's a sound point to be fair. He's certainly not in a position to be dishing out financial advice when his attitude towards spending is basically a case study for how clubs end up finding themselves deep water.

    That's where my point about owners comes in. Their ability to bridge the gap entirely depends on how the current crisis has affected them personally. Hence why I think you simply can't paint every club with the same brush with your claim that everyone is in the same boat because that's complete...

    Figuratively we're all in the same boat but literally we are almost certainly aren't. Yes in a way it all correlates as those with significant wage bills will rely on their fanbases to purchase a match pass as much as those with the smaller wage bills. But the fact of the matter is that those...

    He's going about it completely the wrong way and his meltdown on Twitter is beyond embarrassing. But whilst the point he's making is a bit of a cliche, he still has a point. iFollow on its own won't work financially as a sole revenue stream for the smaller clubs once they unfurlough their...

    EFL Meeting 1pm today

    It certainly is better than ending the season now and I reiterated this the other day, but even with a streaming service, the running costs of many clubs will still be dire due to the significant reduction in footfall - and some clubs are going to be more effected by this decline more than...

    But if the decision to continue the season has been forced upon them despite a club showing physical proof that they will not be able to afford to play the remaining fixtures I think it's going to be a difficult case to make. Even more so because of to the amount of clubs that are going to be in...

    I think the principle is the same. If they help one club think how many will demand handouts. It's not just those in the EFL that are struggling, clubs across the football pyramid will need financial aid and Premier League clubs simply aren't going to gift that much money to that many clubs...

    EFL Meeting 1pm today

    Sued for what though? If football owners of cash-strapped clubs physically cannot afford to pay players their full salaries due to the current crisis I don't see how that is a suable offence. There's a bit of a difference between refusing to fulfil fixtures, and not being able to. Ironic...

    EFL Meeting 1pm today

    I think Darragh MacAnthony proposed such an idea but unfortunately that relies on the TV companies to cooperate. Why would the Premier League help? They didn't help Bolton or Bury when the world wasn't in meltdown so why would they offer a helping hand now? I mean before public criticism...

    Of course they do. For those that have furloughed their staff and players it means putting them back on full pay and having to add to their already significant losses. In the current situation iFollow only suits clubs such as ours and even then, clubs are still going to make a pretty hefty loss...

    EFL Meeting 1pm today

    IF the season is to go ahead behind closed doors realistically the players and non-playing staff will have to be treated almost in the same manner as a vulnerable person - meaning no going outside for even a walk in public, visiting grocery stores. As such, a huge amount of trust is going to...
