Even if they are saved, what happens about all the games that they`ve so far been unable to play ?

I know in amateur footy the other team usually gets the points.

If this was the case, then they`re as good as relegated all ready ?

Doesn't matter, they would still exist and could start again in League 2. As it stands there is no possible future for the club, it's very sad.

Good as relegated now, especially as they only have 8 senior players on the books. But for all concerned hopefully they will be in league 2 next season. It will seem like a win just to get there.

He bought the club for a pound but won't sell. If he is owed any money he has given it up by running the club down to this point. When he saved it last time he should have ensured the books were sorted and they could stand on their own two feet so it was something of value afterwards.

Very sad that people like him exist in this world.

My brother and I were speaking about this yesterday: it’s easy for people to say that local clubs should chip in to help save Bury this time.

However, that would be a short-term measure could ultimately allow charlatans, like their owner, run clubs down with a known safety net.

Will the next club get the same generosity? What if they’ve sucked out money like the Oyston clan did at Blackpool - will they be saved?

He’s been offered a deal for the club, which he bought for £1, but is holding out for a better deal even though it may ultimate destroy the club.

The EFL need to implement measures to ensure that the pyramid as a whole is secured over the long-term, rather than a short term sticking plaster.

I genuinely feel sorry for Bury and hopefully the EFL get their act together and their owner finally decides to sell, but it’s much bigger than that.

Clubs getting them out of the mire will just ensure this vicious cycle will continue; wealthy individuals on the other hand are free too.
 
If they get thrown out tomorrow, it would basically mess with the order for the rest of the season, only 3 would go down (one likely to be Bolton) but they’d still have 4 come up from League 2, meaning L2 would be a team short. Bury wouldn’t be able to reregister with the FA until summer 2020 and would have to start next season as a non league club, way down the ladder

I think they'd adjust it further down. Bring another team up from the conference and so on.

Last season, Championship wages were 104% of revenue.

League 1 94%

Think that might be a part of the problem.

Out of the last 30 teams relegated from the Prem, only 7 have got back up first time of asking.
Reckon that must affect that stat ?
Look at Stoke, they have some players who must still be on a wedge.

Yeah, I guessed there would be some bubbles of PL contracts at some clubs, but even so.

But on Bury, they had some expert bloke on TS earlier, trying to explain stuff behind the scenes. Jeez, talk about a puzzle.

Their ground had a £1.5m mortgage attached to it, which down to fees and missed interest, is now £3m. And when it was arranged, someone got a 40% commission on it. No one knows for real who.

And this Bale fella, since the club have been in this CVA, he has been paid £0000's in debt repayments somehow. I guess he bought the loans when he bought the club, and the CVA is able to pay him back a % of the original amount. So for the £1 he spent, he has actually been paid back a fortune.
 
I cant even imagine the thought of a team you support all your life going out of Business, [till if they come back in lower leagues] and wondering what to do,as you cant just support another team-some probably could do easy,some probably do it now.
 

Mad that the NW clubs don't come together to put together a support package to save them. The money these clubs have got, City. UTD, Liverpool in particular and Everton could all save them with a donation.
 
There is rumours as there probably will be,with it been so close to the end saying hes [Steve dale] took 1.1 million and walked away-probably not true though
