How is it insulting? If you look at the websites of the clubs it has happened to they very clearly state it is not the same club.

From Newport County's official website:

Potentially by law we could probably pull out but as the transfer system at present relies on this other deal it would create issues signing players in the future.

Liquidation would mean the club no longer exists, no need to worry about automatic relegation.

Not mine, came from the group who have been digging since the company was formed as they had suspicions from the off. They're the ones who passed it to the press.

Maybe they could, although we all know the only reason they did it last time was to cover their own mistake in allowing the player registrations to be split from the club, however I would not want to risk the future of the club on the hope they'll do it again. This highlights the issue...

Thought the question mark at the end would have given a clue it was a question and not a statement of fact. Why do you think the government has given £14m to a company with no ships that have never run a single ferry?

I didn't state it as fact, I posed a question. Maybe you can give us an alternative theory on why the government has given £14m to a company with no assets, no ships and no experience of running ferries. Sure this is all just a coincidence but it seems the Seabourne Freight address, 59 Mansell...

Which government minister is going to eventually be found to have links to Seaborne Freight? Seaborne is a newly formed ferry company with no assets who has never run a single ferry service which has been awarded a £14m freight service contract by the government to run between Ramsgate and...

Highly unlikely to happen to say the least but it would be hilarious if Wasps got relegated and then they stopped promotion and relegation and split up the new money among all the clubs still in the top tier.

No they didn’t. The assets that constitute the football club, including FL membership, were transferred to a new company prior to the old company being liquidated. Coventry City now is exactly the same club. There was no break, the players and manager didn’t all walk away, we didn’t lose league...

Halifax Town ceased to exist in 2008 and lost Football Conference membership. FC Halifax Town was then formed, a new club, and placed in the Northern Premer League Division 1 North. They have yet to regain FL status. Chester ceased to exist in 2010 and lost Football Conference membership...

This is where ACL, CCC and the Trust misjudged things. Was clear with who was sniffing around at the time they were trying to force regime change but when it turned out SISU had moved the assets around without the FL noticing it was game over for that plan.

The problem in the scenario we have is it would be SISU making the decision and unless someone is going to offer them millions for the assets that constitute the club, unlikely now let alone if we've lost our league status, they will liquidate. Can't see any reason why they wouldn't.

Its out of the Trump playbook, he did the same with the migrant caravan.

I'm with the wrong GP, mines never offered me a brand new car or TV. Anyone can access primary care, you're correct on that, however how much use that would be for illegal immigrants is highly debatable as they would have no access to secondary care, the actual treatment. Europeans are covered...

Could just as easily say it would benefit them if we didn't exist anymore. The value of the claim would go through the roof.

How does that work? What can an illegal immigrant claim from the taxpayer, wouldn't making a claim lead to them being known to be in the country?

Remember getting the train to games in the late 80s and they'd use old smashed up carriages that sometimes didn't have any seats or windows!

Nuneaton fans are a bit liberal in their interpretation of what happened. The reality is they weren't relegated a couple of divisions as some sort of punishment. The existing club ceased to exist and were therefore no longer in the National League. A new club was formed and the FA placed that...
