That reporter had a brief second to snatch the contract out of his hand. What a missed opportunity...

Very good question. Someone on here ( ) has been banging on about what the 'current' SFC Ltd board has been doing this last 2 - 3 months....there must be a simple explanation for the inactivity on instigating the actual appeal process in that time....what harm would it have done for Tointon or Jones to have filled out a form and sent it to the FL straight after that TV interview with Malwhinny where he said the club could appeal ? At least the wheels would have been in motion long before now... Something doesn't add up

Did you just say "hope"...?

I was thinking the same too. Would we (SFC) 'care' if we didn't know what points any other club was starting on? I wouldn't. As you say, it doesn't matter at this stage of the season whereas the Football League are saying it does matter.

Ok, so the FL are saying to Pinnacle (perhaps): "Ok, you've got a good case BUT if we give you the right to appeal it will take longer than between now and the start of the season to resolve due to length of the appeal process and that's why we can't agree to an appeal" So, in other words, the FL aren't (possibly) dismissing the right to appeal in principle, rather they are saying there isn't enough time to go through the appeal process any more.... I can sort of see where they are coming from if that's the case

Thanks. I've submitted the FL statement to these chaps: http://www.plainenglish.co.uk/

Indeed. Totally agree. But that's my point....what does their statement mean when they say they need to 'ensure certainty' about what competition we compete in? Why does Pinnacle's action lead them to question the position about what competition we're in?

Apologies if this has already been clarified elsewhere, and for starting yet another takeover related thread, but having just re-read the Football League statement posted on their website on Monday, I can't work out what they mean by their 2nd paragraph....here's the full statement: Does that middle paragraph suggest/imply that the dispute is over which League we actually end up starting in? In other words, do the Football League have yet more sanctions up their sleeves which could mean us starting in League Two? Their statement is not about certainty regarding how many points we start on but "certainty" about what "competition" we compete in.... Can someone clarify what they mean? No wonder Lynam is fighting this tooth and nail if the FL aren't ruling out us starting in League Two.... Thanks

Why has this dispute with the FL had little or no mention in the national press the last few days?

MLT, one assumes....

Here's hoping they've got a paddle....

Blimey....Is that some kind of world record for dissolved and/or liquidated companies?!

Dainty Dave?

"Will" rather than "might"? "little bit" = minutes? this morning? this afternoon? this evening? cheers

Why would Leon Crouch ending up as Chairman be a flaw in MusicMan's theory?

If it was a Lassie film, who would play the lead?

You forgot the "FFS" at the end

Look how many teams would have dropped into the bottom 4 in League One if they had spent a large chunk of pre-season under a cloud of uncertainty

It doesn't mean anything. Just an observation.
