Our neighbours look as if their financial situation has come back to haunt them, no money, no manager, no signings in Jan or next summer.

Isn’t the bit about Nantes by Dalman, not only grasping at the longest possible straw, but also sub judice? Has any such link as he claims been established at Henderson’s trial I wonder.
 
They've been claiming for years that they're in no financial trouble. That Tan would just convert it all into equity. Deluded fools. Even if he was of a mind to, the pandemic put a huge dent in his personal net worth. He probably couldn't afford to do it now in any case.

The whole situation just illustrates the danger of being dependent upon external sources of funding. You don't know how stable those sources will be, you don't know when the taps will be turned off.

I said to Prosser on Twitter earlier, they are heading to a very dark place.
 
On the playing side it's just as bad with numerous contracts expiring next summer.

That’s bad?? With their players? Get some dustbins in.

Who would manage that ‘opportunity’.Are they still in for Eddie Howe and Chris Wilder?

Invest in a carpenter too board the goals up.

Here's hoping. Their massive stadium will look great with 8,000 people rattling around in it for a League Two game.
 
I know the fierce rivalry colours our view sometimes, but for the ordinary decent Cardiff fan, this collapse of the club is undeserved.
More clubs will go out of business soon.
The money men who want the Super League will have their way

I like the line that VT prefers direct football, no hope for a change in direction then. No funds for transfers in Jan or next summer, all players who's contracts end will be released and they will no doubt trawl the free transfer market for long ball merchants.
