Even bringing in a few frees (less an option now ofc) or good loans would make us genuine contenders this season


Oh this.
It is so frustrating when we play a team and they've got one or two players that show a modicum of scouting or utilising contacts (like a half season loan of Barry, or Mansfield's Evans, or Barnsley's Phillips).

Our squad is so shallow, I'm not what combination of duct tape and sniffing salts is keeping some of the players going.

Although we do have Savage, Elliott, Bindon, Pereira who all show exactly that . We’ve not been allowed to do it for a while now though….

Dellor's update as of 18:17 this evening on BBCRB.

Club seriously worried about how to pay the bills at the end of this month.

Taylor confirmed as the potential buyer that was in exclusivity. this is now finished. he's still as serious contender.

Club seriously considering administration.

Club confident Couhig's court case isn't a blocker to the sale.

Dai is in the UK working on the sale.

When I say "considering" administration; they think it's a real possibility and are planning for it. Dellor reckons this would be unlikely because it is not in Dai's best interest.

If Taylor is a serious purchaser then the bills will get paid, it’s hard to see administration happening either. If he is hoping to see us go into admin and therefore pick us up cheap then that really doesn’t make him a serious buyer (in terms of having the interests of the club at heart)
Dai ‘ working’ on the sale seems odd, it just takes a signature surely ?

It means he's in regular talks with lawyers, Taylor's people, and now, other potential buyers. We all thought he was in prison or had "fallen down" some stairs in a police station somewhere. But it seems he is active in the process and wants to sell.

Sounds like they're trying to pressure Taylor to commit to it by opening up to other parties, and we're in a whole world of trouble if it doesn't work.

Given the only people who can place us into administration are the Dais and Pang, it seems like a completely bonkers idea, but then if they were acting rationally they wouldn't have taken Couhig's money long ago.

If he is a willing seller and engaged in the process then it’s all going to be over soon !

If the point on administration is true then how did we get Campbell back? The EFL would have had to have been satisfied we could fund the deal.

I would presume we're paying nothing for Campbell and they feel like the development we're giving him makes the deal worthwhile. Big clubs are more concerned about stylistic fit and development, as anything we could contribute would be peanuts to a PL club.

I suspect 100% of his wages are being paid by Wolves.

Funny how the noise starts again as Howe returns. Quite obviously Dellor's source, and I suspect because they go a long way back Dellor is not being skeptical.

Howe may be a pessimist over administration, or may be putting out a narrative to force the issue. When they were reporting a £1m shortfall last March, it led to progress. Problem is, because they messed Couhig around, potential buyers may be less willing to part with cash this time.

I’m sure it’s been explained somewhere but how on earth could admin be something that Dai would consider over a full sale?

Is it something to do with him keeping the training ground or similar?

Maybe he now thinks he can make more money out of the SCL and Bearwood? He doesn't need to be right, he just has to think it and it becomes an option.

Is that basically it - that he’d lose the club itself and the playing side

But could come out with the SCL (useless without the club) and Bearwood (again pretty useless without the club unless Wycombe still want it)

Surely the thought process should go:

- We are close to administration

- We are in a transfer window

- We sell players

- We are no longer close to administration


Other questions:

- How did Dai get into the UK when it was thought he was under some kind of arrest in China

- Why would Wolves/EFL/Campbell himself allow a player/want to join a club in such a state (I appreciate we are not paying his wages but still...)

- Why would you go for administration/points deductions when you have a potential buyer willing to pay good money for a currently top 6 side

Maybe we should consider Dellor's track record before reacting....


What has he been ITK or right about in the last 3 years or so?...

Dellor didn't claim it was all 100% confirmed as true, he was just reporting what he'd been sold by "senior sources" inside the club.

(BTW I know I'm always backing him up - just to be clear, I am not him).
