Macc have been wound up in High Court over 500k debts.
How close were we?
I think it was Kenglo who said that Evatt was a good salesman. Good job 8000 plus season tickets sold may well keep us alive.
Caveat is the Head of football operations at BWFC is the former at Macclesfield Town.
Macc. One of many?

Very, very sad news, especially when you think the amount is less than one PL players monthly salary. It probably indicates exactly what’s wrong with our game today and sadly unlikely to change. I doubt that Mac will be the only ones failing this season, especially if there’s a wider lockdown, and despite our season ticket sales, I doubt we are entirely out of the woods yet although we may just make it. So who will be next? Wigan, Charlton, Barnsley? Who knows?

You can include Rhyl F.C.in that too whites. Perhaps they are a blip on the radar, but when the foundations are gone, then what happens to the building?
Southend have been given a stay of execution and I think are back in High Court in six weeks.

I read today that Parry and Co at the EFL are trying to get some millions from the EPL to help staunch the bleeding at lower league clubs. Don't know how that will work out and, if successful, how the cash will be shared out,. It now looks to me as though most clubs have been kept going by an infusion of cash fortnightly from visiting supporters, ourselves included, which means we are needing crowds back ASAP. Have just enrolled to be a visitor at Colchester on Saturday. Wonder who keeps the cash from that. And wondering also if IE is starting to talk through his hat with extravagant promises of improved performance.It's definitely needed - the improved performance !!!

You’re spot on wots/Kenglo, there will be many of these small clubs going under and unless crowds are allowed back in, or the PL pony up some cash, league clubs too will fail very shortly. I don’t think it’s exaggerating it to say that football is in a critical condition. Of course the PL with their obnoxious income and ludicrous salaries are unlikely to want to bail out the EFL clubs, why should they, the whole point of the PL was to distance itself from the also rans. In the meantime, I too will be virtually attending the game and hope that my tenner, or most of it is going to Wanderers as it will be through the BWFC/iFollow web site. COYWM, 3 points this week and cheer my weekend up.
