Is it ironic that in the midst of all that's going on they're today playing Notts County who had a similar thing happen a few years ago, some foreign 'investor' waltzed in & persuaded them he could give them the world - even went so far as to bring in Sven Goran Eriksson & sign Sol Campbell, all based on false promises as the money just wasn't there but the damage he did left them in millions of poundsworth of debt
Morecambe
- Thread starter st06nc2
- Start date
notts county are still a mess off the field but seems to have grown to on field problems. they look a complete shambles at least morecambe will give it everything on the pitch. notts county to follow lord didsbury,s local side into oblivion.
But that was us! ......and we came through it.
Horrific as it was for us at least it was a little simpler, we owed the taxman money & if we couldn't pay that would've been curtains. Ok, we had certain individuals at the time trying to pull the wool over our eyes as to what was going on but it looks a lot more complicated up the road - all sorts coming out now & goodness knows how they'll unravel the mess
Genuinely hope they come out the other side as we did

I see one of the potential saviors Joseph Cala has pulled back from making an offer news taken from the BBC Morecambe: Joseph Cala ends potential takeover talks - BBC Sport
would have been out of the fire and into the frying pan with another foreign owner. need a local guy like us which is the only way forward for a club like morecambe.
I honestly think that when the brown stuff hits the fan the local authorities should be able to seize control in much the same way as they can seize derelict property.
It's not a great solution but is one solution, after all, football clubs truly belong to the fans. The only other genuine solution is for Fan groups to save enough money up and then hoard it until such time as a buy out is necessary. As things stand we are likely to be the cheapest club around but could we raise and hoard £2m?

no chance. we and morecambe probebly could raise a few thousand but its a drop in the ocean for whats needed. some struggle nowadays to find the money to go to a game never mind spending anything else. the heart might be willing but the pocket isn,t.

Well its better position than us!! we cant afford to buy in the first place i reckon.
God help 'em!! Obviously Peter McGuiness isn't too fussy who he sells to
Where's that announced?
He's only agreed to out some money in, just like he agreed to put money into an Italian club but was kicked out after 11 days for not coming up with the funds...
Nobody injects money into a football club unless they are buying it.
Board meeting in progress so maybe more news later.
There's never a dull day !!
Cala?
Look forward to our benefit game with youse!
