Stranded Wycombe have just tweeted that they are putting on hold provision for funding to RFC and the acquistion of Bearwood.
"Wycombe Wanderers Football Club and Feliciana have to put on hold the discussions and ongoing due diligence due to seeming planning limitations allowing only Reading FC to use the training grounds."

OLLIE KEARNSStranded Why are people so fixated on the distance between the Wycombe ground and Bearwood?
Football players do not live at the stadium. For a number of them, it may be an easier commute to get to Bearwood than their current training ground and on matchdays players tend to make their own way to the stadium for games.
The only real questions are a) can they afford it and b) can they even use it.
More I look at it - a) only because a 3rd party seems to be buying it for them to use and b) probably only if we are able to use it too - probably as primary tenant.
Some info from the Wycombe end FWIW. The price is £25m, it’s a new investor believed to be from the Middle East as opposed to the current owner, both clubs will train at Bearwood going forward. If that is correct then the deal does make sense in many ways in that Wycombe seem to be at a dead end with their own training ground and League 1 sides can’t afford £25m training facilities in isolation.
That still leaves lots of open questions but the crux of the deal at least has some logic to it.

Stranded Can't make up my mind if that is good news or bad news....
Or if they are having to check if they can actually use it.

Who knows what it means for today's meetings. But taking a bigger picture view, it reinforces to Dai and Pang that our real estate is only worth something when sold with the club.

Yes. Anyone competent might have investigated this first. Another pathetic chapter in the story of those two clowns

Be (morbidly) funny if the planning permission for Bearwood, presumably got under Dai's ownership scuppered the deal, which in turn scuppered tge club being bought and our survival.

WestYorksRoyal Isn't HMRC due on Friday? Definitely short term issues caused by this, but hopefully a longer term win. Just adds to uncertainty right now.

windermereROYAL Just guesswork that it could potentially baulk the sale, nobody outside of the clubs knows, stop panicking.
