Spooky, I was thinking the very same thing whilst watching MoTD last night.

I dont know the answer to that, I would think that the new CVA will be under the new laws. However is there anything stopping the FL/FA bringing in new rules in return for the golden share. What potential investers(if there are any) wont want is uncertainty. Although on paper the football creditors rule being abolished looks good for them, I dont think it is. It may wipe a lot of debt, but who on earth is going to sign for them.No clubs will offer any sort of transfer terms or want to deal with them. Well run, finacially viable clubs will hoover up all the better palyers.

I think Cork's been off his game for a couple of months now, he's been a bit inconsistant. Chaplow is still getting back from an injury, he'll need time to get back to what he was.

I agree with you, I also despair whether people know anything about football. Anybody who things Harding is "better defender" clearly does not. Harding is out of his depth at this level. Fox is not "marginally better" than Harding, but a different class. Harding would not get into any side in the top 2/3rds of this league, whereas there aren't many better than Fox.

Harding is my scapegoat, he is useless and not up to it IMO. I would play Richardson or Butterfield on the left (with the other playing RB) before playing him.

No, I never said that. I just think they'll go up and with a few points to spare.

Let's face it West Ham are going up. I listened to the start of their game on the way home from my game this moring and Steve Claridge said that with the squad and quality they have, they should be a shoe in and be 10 points clear by now.I agree with him.Personally I think it's West Ham plus us or Reading.

Got mine, used my mates numbers and my credit card. Only problem is they're not sending out, so have to get them before Sat's game, which will delay entry to the pub.Not going to try before KO as the queue could be pretty bad.......

Chris Huhme?

LOL, Durham just playing Goddnight Vienna for the Skates. Also said Forset's last game of the season is Skates, could be sat at home watching relegation battle but cant do anything about it...........

I thought he said because of the timescales someone would have to come forward within a couple of weeks, not that a deal needed to be concluded in a couple of weeks. Mind you I have a hosue full of brats, so maybe misheard.

Birch-The biggest issue is the operating costs, not the previous owners demands. Contracts still in force next season killing them.

Birch on Talksport-This could be the one. If no buyer comes forward by the summer, that's it, it's all over.

The way I'm reading this, the old CVA people aren't getting paid and will have to take a % of the original CVA %. Good luck with trying to get them all to vote for a new CVA. Does anybody kinow how much debt is owed under the old CVA and what % is that of the new debt?

Birch said it was touch and go if they would make the end of season, when they thought they had the £2.2mil parachute money. Now that's gone, is it too simplistic to say that someone needs to come up with that as a minimum, and that's just to get back to the "touch and go" situation. The only hope they've got is if a Leon Croch type is willing to give away £2.2 million, or one of Chinny or Gayder works out that keeping them going is in their best interests. Even if that happens they have to get past Birch. Surley we're reaching the end game now.

Headline news story on Talk Sport-unless there is a "significant event" they will not complete the season.Said they were told by Birch, and "more about this story, as it devolops".

Just heard on Talksport that Rangers have made 11 players redundant, and the rest face wage cuts. I didn't think they could do that, perhaps the Jocks are different.

Does anybody remember them? The Prefab four. Nasty,Stig, Dirk and Barry . Watched it again last night, and it is seriously funny with some great songs as well. A cast that also included John Belushi, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, George Harrison, Paul Simon and Mick Jagger. A Beatles **** take, with a Nazi Yoko, a one legged Brian Epstein and ending with a rooftop concert. [video=youtube;dZB-THUHyHY]

The Monkees were part of my childhood. The best manufactured band, bar none. How Simon Cowell and that Irish puff would give for songs like, I'm not your stepping stone, I'm a believer,and the aforementioned last train to clarkesville. Mike Nesmith's Rio is one of my favourite songs of all time. RIP Davy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0bmcJSLuO8&feature=related

It's hard to compare and contrast teams over different eras, particulary as the rules, pitches and even balls have changed so much. I dont think we'll ever be able to have a team with the quality of some of Lawrie's did, but there's only 3 or 4 sides in England that could in future. We didn't just have good top flight players, we had world class players, and in the case of Shilts , KK & Bally 3 all time greats (ok maybe Bally and KK were past their best).We had a mixture of youngsters and fantastic players, and played a style of football that was a joy to watch. That said, this is a fantastic side for where we are now, where we were, and for the era we watch the game in. It has been a fantastic couple of seasons, and we have played some fantastic stuff. RL & AL are on their way to becoming legends, loved every bit as much as some of our previous greats. And Kelvin must be there already. If we go up this season then Nigel will join Ted and Lawrie as the only men to take us up to the top flight. He is on his way to being mentioned in the same breath as those two, and that is a remarkable achievement in only 2 short years at the club..

In Ballys first season there was a 5-4 at Norwich and a win at Newcastle in his first match.

If HMRC win the case, could they be classed as a prefered creditor alongside the football creditors. I am sure this used to be the case a few years back. Are HMRC challanging the fact that they aren't a prefered creditor or the fact that football creditors are?

What, not The Mail, another paper whose beliefs seem to offend the lefties. I suppose all those readers are ignorant scum bags as well. Which ever way you look at it, Murdoch is a genius. And no matter how offended they are by him, and NI, they keep buying his papers and watching his TV. The British people could finish Murdoch tomorrow. They dont, because despite what the lefties say, he gives the people what they want. That's the thing that really sticks in the throat of luvvies like Grant & Coogan.

Despite Murdoch being the bogey man it looks like the Sun sold 3.26 million copies on Sunday. The British people are obviously not as bothered as the great and the good about phone hacking, the Murdochs and "gutter press". I would love to see a reporter ask those luvvies Hugh Grant and Steve Coogan what they think of the circulation figures and what it means for their high profile anti Murdoch agenda.
