tmesis Given that Dai wouldn't do it, nor would the directors, that only really leaves a successful winding up order as the only way it could happen.

We aren't going to get wound up while we still have some money to pay the bills, so that really seems to suggest that it would only happen if we'd spent the season ticket money and the Olise money, and consequently would be lucky to finish the season.

An administrator would then come in and slash costs to the bone while looking for a buyer. It would not be pretty.

The wonders of ChatGPT also suggest that the stadium situation doesn't get easily resolved by going into administration



In other words we could go into administration without being able to sell the club as a whole, in which case the clubs becomes much less valuable or viable.


Equally though any Administrators have to balance that side with maintaining a club that is reasonably competitive in the league (though I think it might be seen as pretty pointless after the 12 point deduction).


I don't think it would. We'd still be outside the relegation zone if a 12 point deduction was applied today. Very good chance of staying up if we can remain competetive,


It would be the sale of all our senior players at knock down prices and probably having an Academy coach managing the team that would be the issue. I don’t think administrators would have to make decisions about a ‘competitive’ side, they would just need to try and ensure we fulfilled our fixtures.

It depends on the time it happened. If it was after the transfer window shut, we couldn't sell anyone.

Well yes, if that happens then we're buggered.
But that was not the point I was questioning, it was whether it would be seen as pointless to remain competetive after a 12 point deduction

Not sure there is much point looking at one consequence in isolation. If we went into admin there would be lots of consequences beyond a points deduction. The sum of those would be to make us pretty much uncompetitive. And the administrators wouldn’t be working on the basis of maximising our points return anyway. They are sorting the finances, not picking the team
