What's the point of a fit for purpose badge and what's the point of a coaching badge?
Does the badge make you a good manager? Does it teach you how to manage? How can Pep, Klopp have the same UEFA badges as Owen Coyle and Phil Parkinson.
I wonder if the fit and proper test has some kind of admin fee? I wonder what the cost is for a UEFA badges? I also wonder if anyone has failed to meet these very specific requirements if they have paid these administration fee.

Here's a question.
If the EFL approve people as fit and proper persons before they buy a club, can they be deemed unfit during the operation of a club and be removed?
Let's face it, if the player's did strike, again, over unpaid wages and creditors and tax bills not being paid on time, then surely they have no place as an owner/chairman?

My take on this, wots and all above is that:
1. It's always very sad when a failing business has to lay off or agree short time for its employees and it's not good to have a reputation as a late payer
2. However BN's reporting is remote from the club b and cannot be trusted for accuracy. This week it has been unhelpful. Added to this the Supporter's Trust of which I had high hopes again let's itself down badly at a time when everyone should be pulling togetherness.
3. It is ridiculous to criticise Ken for missing one game and even to report it. Whatever his responsibility re 1 he and his son are the most regular attenders and indeed communicators that I can remember over my many years supporting
4. It's easy to forget that the club all but went out of existence before Dean and Ken took over
5. Eddie Davies's death has been a huge blow
in general I'm really worried. If Ken opts away the club could fold? Yes he is inching BWFC into greater viability but it's an uphill task. It is such a shame that the finances available via tv deals and the self- serving greed of the EPL dominates all. Clubs like Bolton with a surprisingly resilient if modest fan base are necessarily obliged to take risks or reduce aspirations. Ken is clearly a risk taker. We may not approve of his methods and we may spot inconsistencies in the narrative but we should be grateful he's giving it a go. Few would

Andy,
I agree that Ken Anderson is “giving it a go” but what do you think his motives are?
Does he wants to save Bolton Wanderers or is he in it to make a few million?
One answer could be both but my worry is that it is solely the second one.
As I have said before, this £5M loan to pay off Blue Marble has me seriously worried as it possibly means that Anderson would still be in pocket if Wanderers went into administration and, therefore, he has no great incentive to pull us through this mess other than to sell the club for £30M which we all see as improbable.
I accept that there appeared no one else to save us when Holdsworth and Anderson stepped in but our approach to financial issues since then stinks. Our reputation is rock bottom.
Presumably, HMRC will need some money come the New Year and also Forest Green. If he treats Forest Green like he has treated all other creditors, the EFL must take action.
Maybe I am just a down and out pessimist (I think performances on the field could have driven me that way) but it’s hard to see a positive outcome to this farce we are all living through.

Just another comment on late payments/running costs.
Why do we have 28 players in the first team squad – all needing to be paid substantial wages each month?
28 is a hell of a big squad.
- 4 keepers – why?
- 5 full backs – why?
- 4 central defenders
- 7 midfield players
- 4 wingers – why?
- 4 strikers
Plus the U23s lads who will never get a chance in the first team with so many in front of them.
It seems to me to be an excessive size of squad and therefore an excessively high wage bill.

Not to harp on but Big Sam took a soft timid striker in Henrick Pederson and put him left back. It somehow did the trick. Josh Vela had a decent stint at right back, Darren Pratley had his best games as left wing attack under Lennon. We drafted in Holding at right back he looked great he moved central and did well enough to get picked up.
