Nuff Said 5,973 Posted October 1, 2020 Should I say “someone’s prepared to buy Wigan, but supposedly there’s no buyers for NCFC” now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigFish 2,283 Posted October 1, 2020 Good News in dark times. Especially when 146 year old Macclesfield Town, went to the wall and were expelled from the National League, looked to the start of a landslide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a classic case of buying a business that's in distress. That may have something to do with the apparent lack of buyers for City. We're just not attractive to takeover....... unless anyone knows a philanthropic multibillionaire who just happens to support City.....anyone? Please form an orderly queue in these difficult times as the clamour to buy us could present a health hazard....and that would upset the curtain twitchers. Glad we're not Wigan but glad they may have found a route to survival This raises a question in my mind... who will be the first heavily backed club to flirt with administration ? throwing a few hundred million around may not be as viable in the future . Businesses will concentrate on business and may consider their dalliance in football unsustainable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
