Agree LS, Type High, is obviously not a football fan, stupid, idiotic comment!
Agreed . After going through the same thing ourselves during the Beelzebub era I feel sorry for any set of supporters who find themselves in the same position . Why doesn't Ron Martin just sell the club and bugger off .

The same garbage was given to the court by Ron Martin back in March. Given 6 weeks today by the court to sell the club and pay off the creditors. That’s not going to happen based on previous court meetings. Really feel sorry for the fans who are so passionate.spen666 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 12, 2023 12:37 pmGot to have a willing buyer before you can sellRedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 12, 2023 10:00 am .....

The court should ask the proposed new owners if they are still interested.Ron Martin can go back to the court next time and still say we are close to selling to get more time.This has being going back to the court on several occasions.The trouble is that Ron is trying to sell a club not worth what he thinks it’s worthspen666 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 12, 2023 12:51 pmGarbage?moonwalk19 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 12, 2023 12:49 pmThe same garbage was given to the court by Ron Martin back in March.

How do you sell if there is not a willing buyer?
Who do you sell a club to if there is no willing buyer You cannot force someone to own a club
The issue is,Martin wants his cake and to eat it. He wants someone to buy the name of the club, along with the staff, players etc but they will have to rent the ground off of Martin. Bear in mind he already took money from Sainsbury's for the Roots hall site (which I believe Sainsbury's have given up on getting) He has apparently transferred debt from his other companies into Southend's name and took a loan from the league knowing if he didn't get a buyer by the time the season starts he won't be able to pay it back.moonwalk19 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 12, 2023 2:14 pmThe court should ask the proposed new owners if they are still interested.Ron Martin can go back to the court next time and still say we are close to selling to get more time.This has being going back to the court on several occasions.The trouble is that Ron is trying to sell a club not worth what he thinks it’s worthspen666 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 12, 2023 12:51 pmGarbage?moonwalk19 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 12, 2023 12:49 pm

Don’t believe anybody is going to buy the club for the money Martin wants . I have a friend who is a season ticket holder and he says the fans cannot wait to see the back of him.How he has convinced the court to a 42 days to allow the takeover to take place is incredibleoriboy wrote: ↑Wed Jul 12, 2023 3:50 pmThe issue is,Martin wants his cake and to eat it.

Martin lives near me and there are fans protesting outside his house and trying to force him into selling or at least pay staff and players wages.
Very sad to see and this could very easily have been us. There for the grace of god.
