it's great to be able to talk about transfers again. This from Morecambe revives memories from earlier summer breaks.....​

​

​

The Board of Directors of Morecambe Football Club wish to make the following statement.​


Bond Group Investments Limited, despite agreeing a sale with Panjab Warriors, giving the Board assurances for more than a year that they intend to sell to Panjab Warriors, and working with Panjab Warriors to enable them to gain EFL clearance for the acquisition to proceed on 6th June 2025, now appear to be considering reneging on the deal and attempting to engage with alternative buyers, on the same day that they have failed to provide the funds required to meet the Club’s June payroll, despite understanding exactly what that requirement is.

They have also, at the last minute, informed the Board of Directors and Panjab Warriors that they are not actually in a position to transfer their shares to a buyer without consent from an unspecified third party.

Bond Group Investments Limited are playing with people’s livelihoods, threatening the very existence of this proud club, and risking serious damage to the community it serves.

They have consistently proved to be deceitful, and the Board of Directors call upon them to, for once, do the right thing and sell the club immediately to Panjab Warriors, the only potential buyer that has passed the EFL’s fit and proper test and proved willing to engage properly with a sale process that has now been ongoing for over two and a half years.

The Board of Directors have, once again, considered resigning, and only remain in post to attempt to protect the interests of the club, staff and everyone associated with it.

Night and day from the pathetic lackeys that sat on Ron Martin's board

I would doubt that. He is and always has been very clear that he doesn't interfere with transfers, and trusts John Still and his team.

Think this maybe could be referred to as a 'starmer'ism by JR. What is said and what occurs may not always be simi!ar. Not saying thare could be any issue with trust in the scouting, but quite possibly believes he knows better by using the stats

Given the number of people on here that think they know better than the management team, then that's no surprise!

If I was risking my own money, then I'd listen to the opinions of the professionals but wouldn't give them carte blanche to spend my money without putting my two-penneth in as well. Surely that's one of the benefits of being the owner of a football club.

Can't disagree with that at ali. How many 'penneths ' might be the discussion bit but I totally agree with your view.
 
This is exactly how the saga reads. Scouts have seen him ( the Crawley bloke) play and he makes it onto the whiteboard. He becomes available and football dept opens discussion to see if the player is interested in coming and how much. Everything is in place and gets passed upstairs for final approval which after analysis comes back negative. Yes we could have got him, no a formal contract offer is never made. Everyone is correct and no one is full of ****. If data is the way we’re going we need to see how it works before writing it off because we ‘miss out’ on one NLS player.
