Bolton could now do a Bury. The takeover they were planning on, and that the EFL assumed would go through, has now been blocked: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49286229


Bolton: Founder Members of the FL in 1888. Going under.
Bury: Joined the FL in 1894. Going down (despite having just gone up!) for the third time.
Salford City: 10 miles from Bolton and 12 miles from Bury, promoted to the FL 2019 with big investors.

I know that football is a 'business' like any other but this scenario seems so 'twisted' and bizarre to me.

So sad! :sad:

Phil Neville's dad has a stand named after him at Gigg Lane, his mum works at Gigg Lane, so which club does he invest in? Not Bury obviously.

Jill Neville has now apparently resigned so the stand is the only connection.

The players they do have are already knackered. Tomorrow's match would have been a cricket score. Not fair on the kids at all, so the right decision.

Thing is it can't be Bolton's decision. Otherwise we could have called games off when we had our keeper injury crisis. Plus some Doncaster fans will have bought tickets and made travel plans.

League will dock Bolton more points I think, They will be in League 2 in 20/21 especially as they still await punishment (I think) for players strike at end of last season.
