tonyd Posted January 13 Report Share Posted January 13 2 hours ago, YeOldPitGate said: The new lot seem well funded so hopefully will get one top line rider on board, I just hope they don't make the same mistake as the fella who took over Rye House and put a load of riders on huge guarantees and then went bust at the end of the season. He never lasted to the end of the season, I believe the riders were not getting paid and the licence was suspended until finances were in place which never happened so they never re-opened. I don't think the riders have ever received there promised monies by the promotion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralMelchett Posted January 13 Report Share Posted January 13 (edited) 5 hours ago, JamesB said: I’ve said it on here before and now Louis directly references it in this latest interview. Due Diligence, both Financial and Legal is a critical element of the sale process of any business and takes place after the parties have agreed the terms of the sale/purchase. I will remain nervous until confirmation that contracts have been signed. Despite the chuntering on here once Louis had decided to sell up he was up against it time wise to get this sorted - it’s to his and the buyers credit they have managed to get this in place inside 8 weeks (even less) - if hadn’t - all hell would be breaking loose here! Let’s hope all is in order and the sale goes through smoothly. Edited January 13 by GeneralMelchett 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s hope all is in order and the sale goes through smoothly. I agree but there should have been more comms with fans, particularly giving reassurance on the continuance of the club. The alternative would have been to sell during the season so it's all sorted in good time for the following year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YeOldPitGate Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 16 hours ago, Fromafar said: Surely the Premiership can’t survive for another 2 years. I wouldn't have thought so but I think it will most likely be driven by Poland only and the one other league rule if it comes in rather than the top league promoters actually doing some forward planning that in a sensible world should be happening now.

Youhave2minutes Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 I think I’m right in saying that Kings Lynn missed a season do to a change of one promotion which obviously was not able to complete in time. So if Ipswich run they have done remarkably well to conclude the deal so quickly. Can anyone tell me what year Kings Lynn failed to ride please.

Was because of the purchase of the stadium by Buster rather than a change of promotion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember it but pretty sure Buster owned the stadium might have been the year after Waggy ran things for a season Bagpuss will probably know. Doh would help if I read to the bottom of the thread he has answered already. Edited January 14 by YeOldPitGate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
