It doesn't have to be the stadium he just doesn't run the Witches. The BSPL won't deal with anyone else unless Louis authorises it -

No. Ipswich stadium isn't closing. So there's no way he can apply to put the licence on ice for 3 years. If a promotion loses their stadium (like Wolves, Peterborough) they can ice the licence for up to 3 years while they seek another venue, because it is an "unforeseeable, uncontrollable, event". I can't see any unforeseeable, uncontrollable, event under which Louis could apply to ice the licence. -
The Poole team does look handy, but I'm not thinking 26 is going to be easy. Redcar is looking particularly strong imo, Glasgow and Oxford are there or thereabouts, but others like say Plymouth have real strengths too. Should make for a competitive season, with close matches, can't wait. -
If he closes then the rights are still protected for 3 years after closure so essentially you have to deal with Louis and can't swerve it

I'm working on the basis of what if Chris Louis packed it in and didn't run in 2026. With no licence, what's to stop someone new doing a deal with Spedeworth for a stadium lease, and applying to BSPL for a licence. No other club within 30 miles, so no reason to refuse them.
