Bolton Players Refusing To Play Remaining Fixtures 15:35 - Apr 26 with 36725 viewsSandyDrum



Incredible that it has actually come to this.

For those without Twitter:

“The mental pressure has affected some people to the extent that they feel they are unable to perform their jobs sufficiently.

“These are unprecedented circumstances and are affecting every aspect of our lives, placing great strain on ourselves and our families.

“During this time we have remained patient in hope of some explanation but information from the club has been extremely limited and very confusing. What we have been told changes constantly.

“With deep regret we have decided not to fulfil our remaining fixtures unless we are paid.

“We understand that this will disappoint our fans and for this we sincerely apologise.

“We realise this may be seen as drastic action but we feel we have no other options left.

“This decision has not been taken lightly and is not a reaction to this one particular incident.


“We have suffered numerous issues this season, and recent seasons. Brought on by the mismanagement of this club.

“We have been operating in a near untenable environment for some time and it is the accumulation of these issues that have resulted in our decision.”

It was something about the championship head honchos have said they must fulfill the fixtures even if it means 15 year olds have to play.

All teams in the championship have to play the last game with the players that played the prievious game in the squad.This was due to Huddersfield playing kids in the last game last season.

Wasn't that in Huddersfield's promotion season when they sent their reserve team to Birmingham because they wanted to rest their first team for an upcoming play off game ?
It gave Birmingham their first win in ages which enabled them to stay up by the skin of their teeth.

Hilditch, Holmes, Ward (2)

Aldershot went bust in March 1992.


It was kind of all in there but not necessarily in the right order. I think that was spoonhead’s only goal in second stint? Fully expecting it to be revealed he banged 20 in.

From memory, he definitely got at least one other as he scored against Halifax on Easter Monday.

I honestly think that the issue that the EFL have is what happened at Waftord...

Yesterday was the 2nd month in a row that the players have not been paid at Bolton we are now in May and the June so surely it cannot drag on n on..

Players will be leaving soon under contract or not as its a breach of contract not to pay them....
The HMRC wont keep upon waiting either.....

I suspect the attitude of the EFL depends on which club is involved and where it is located.
Essentially the EFL is involved in a massive marketing operation to keep the TV companies interested. the loss of a club with a large fan- base would be difficult, the loss a small club in a geographical area overstocked with football clubs would be less of a problem.
Everything the EFL does is aimed at looking after the TV income and ensuring national coverage from a sponsorship perspective. Everything else is a distraction to their purpose.

Unfortunately you're dead right about the detrimental effect TV is having on the game at lower levels.

Unbelievably, TalkSport are now reporting that Bassini is alleging that whilst he is desperately trying to file the paperwork and raise the funds in time, the purchase price has now gone up !!

I see this as one of two scenarios..
Bassini is struggling to put the funding package together to prove to the EFL he as the money which is looking rather doubtfull..
Or
Anderson as stuck to his monday deadline and been incontact with other interested parties hence the value as increased in his eyes...
I would have thought relegation decreased boltons value...

It isnt looking good for Bolton now.....

Could well be 40 points required for safety next year!!!

Bassini is saying he's in control of the club now. However, there's nothing to say he's provided proof of funds to the EFL. Which is to be expected of someone that has been bankrupted twice recently.

It's such a farce.

One of them is telling porkies either Anderson or Bassini as there is no mention of the EFL giving Bassini the go ahead to take over....

So as far as i see it unless the EFL says that its ratified for Bassini to take control then Anderson is still the owner.....

Farce is no where near strong enough!!

The Football League / FA / EFL should hang there collective heads in shame.

Bolton as a football club are a disgrace. Years of spending way above there means chasing the illusion a pot of gold is around the corner.

Years of spending money they clearly did not have cheating all others as they plunder on regardless of consequence.

Surviving relegation last year? How does that club feel in the final relegation spot. Its the same for any club behaving in this way its CHEATING.

This includes sides who do the same and then get promoted. Sound familiar?.

There can only be one answer and as said 100 times a 2 division relegation for any side entering admin.

Bolton could write off close on 200 million in the near future and then storm up the leagues with little if any consequence.

its fast becoming a joke.

Bassini fit for purpose?? Just how they hell did he get that one through!.
