Can you expand please?

I’ve just posted something similar in another thread. Hi @SWFC Trust Could I suggest that (the collective) we start a campaign led by the Trust to push that: Chansiri gets the bare minimum payment from admin (essentially, his 25%) but only after the other creditors have their 25% first? that monies left after this initial 25% are used to pay the other creditors to in full before Chansiri gets anything more? I know that we can’t push for any legal ruling but we could try to sway public opinion.

I hope then that we get enough to pay Chansiri his 25% and the rest of the creditors in full. I don’t know if that would be legal but I hope it is. I think that, morally, paying the other creditors in full is the right thing to do.

The administrators have already said they will only be making short to medium term decisions. They won’t make decisions that could affect how the future owner(s) structure the rest of the season post Christmas.

I don’t think it’s been stated. There are deadlines for identifying a buyer and entering negotiations though (I want to say six weeks).

That was years ago and their mindset very much appears to have change now

No fan does (or very few do) but the league rules dictate that we face a penalty if we don’t pay him.

because he believes that is the value of the club and he’s willing to take the -15 points hit.

This is exactly right and if he gets the club for £20M then we can assume he is paying around the market value or, quite possibly, more. I can’t see many people wanting to pay more just to avoid a penalty.

Yeah. Fvvck off.

This. And let’s be honest, Simon Jordan is one of those squealing and I think we can all assume he is just a tyre kicker at best and full of 5h1t at worse.

This. Absolutely this.

But we don’t know that. Everyone is just speculating

But we don’t know that. Kris Wigfield said there would be “radio silence” until 5th December. Everyone is just speculating.

All I’m hearing recently is things like “potential buyers are pulling out because the price is too high” or “the administrators have told the bidders the want x amount”, and similar things. A few weeks back Kris Wigfield said “the market will dictate at what price the club is valued”. Effectively, there is no set price for the club; the administrators are legally bound to accept the highest offer for anyone that passes the criteria that dictates they can make an offer. Let’s all just chill out and let the administrators get on with their tasks. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cj41l4dxzjqo

I said I think he hasn’t been since Chansiri left - it’s based upon him posting in the Matchday thread every game.

I know I’ll probably get criticised and ridiculed for starting this thread but we can’t let our attendances drop and we need as many fans as possible in the ground to ensure the potential new owners keep focus. While walking back to my car from the match today, I scrolled through the Matchday thread and I saw that there were lots of fans in posting in that thread that I’m guessing weren’t at the game - it’s nigh on impossible to get a signal in Hillsborough during matches. There was one particular prominent OwlsTalker in that thread that was talking the moral high ground a few months ago claiming he’d sacrificed going to the match as his contribution to rid us of Chansiri but it very much appears that he wasn’t there today and I don’t think he’s been since Chansiri left. i just want to say that the club needs you now.

I have no problem with that. It shows he cares.

“chuffin idiots” is mild. Whatever bellend throw that lighter at the United player has wiped out the Trust donation in one fell swoop. What an absolutely moron.

Didn’t one of the administrators say that if you learn the identity of a person making a bid then he’s probably not a serious contender (or words to that effect) - as in, they’re “tyre kickers”?

If the sale can go through quickly, we will have time to rebuild in the second half of the Championship season. That will allow us to put together more than an adequate team. We could treat January to May as a “pre” pre-season. You never know, all of the planets may realign and we might stay up (extremely unlikely, I know).

It’s behind a paywall!!!

He has my vote.

This.
