No mention of points deductions yet, but there surely will be. That would be a help possibly if our poor run continues.

The fact is that we still have some of the wealthiest stake holders on the planet. (Eg the Mittal stake is still held by the family.) The airline business isn't in great shape at the moment but the Tune group have interests beyond that.
Despite their questionable stewardship, I can't see any of them allowing the club to go down that route, there's too much face at stake.

People said that about caterham f1 team, look what happened there. When it comes to sport, Bungle and chums are complete failures. he has done more damage to our club than what 10 richard thompsons ever could. i would take flavio and friends over this current mob any day of the week. |

No one can defend Fernandes on a sporting front and Caterham has been repeated as we are clinging on to our club by the skin of our teeth. Newly promoted PL team when he came with a budget to go with it now we have a Mars bar and a can of coke to trade with. |

Hopefully the EFL wonât deduct 12 points, if this turns out to be true and they have contributed to it in any way.

The process and checks for owning a club are a joke. The powers that be should resign as not fit for purpose. And if true deff no points deduction should be imposed.

Why not deduct them points? Not keen on teams being deducted points because of the dubious and shady practices of their owners. If the day to day running of the club indicated that things had been getting out of control, then thatâs another matter. If it has come about because of an engineered scam by some foreigners, then whack the owners with a massive fine like we got. |

Really feel for them. Fuck me theyâve only been there a few weeks. Makes a mockery of the fit and proper persons bullshit. Normally youâd expect someone to sail in on a white steed and save them but in the current climate? Could be curtains for them but I hope they get it sorted. Makes you wonder if a club with a low average gate, paying lowest wages in one of the cheapest parts of the country can go bust in 6 weeks just how much money are rangers haemorrhaging. If what Hoos says is true and the owners are funding it at a rate of a million quid a week weâre only one tantrum away from following suit. What we have in our favour in my opinion is amit. Heâs hooked. If Tony and the other financial juggernauts pulled the plug thereâs no way Amit would let it go to the wall if it was avoidable. One things for sure Wigan might be the first but sadly they wonât be the last
