50%+1 obvs

 Totally agree with Keefy that administration (cash flow in our case) is undesirable but I do not see many routes that avoid it. %0%+1 with working capital may be one but I'm not sure there are investors who would pump in money year by year whilst being outvoted by the Trust

 Not eager at all Laurence thats why we should seek a buyer while we are solvent. Also as you say it will be interesting as to who we have in the background who is willing to inveast without control.

 Keefy - I was off at the Master Investor show last Saturday. Didn't hear a single person or trust mention investing in AFC Wimbledon.

 Keefy: Going into administration is a formal insolvency process in the UK that is typically triggered when a company is insolvent—meaning it cannot pay its debts when they are due (cash flow insolvency) or its liabilities exceed its assets (balance sheet insolvency). Why are you and others so eager to embrace administration?

 Keefy, I guess the choice is 1) small squad with (say) L1 players backed up by loanees/yoof versus 2) normal squad of L2 players with "risky" additions

 OI Obviously thats why we should look out for a buyer. The time things take to happen at Wimbledon we could well be in administration before the trust members get a vote whether we approve any 50+1 investment.

 Sasu would be best to loan out for 6 months to get some fitness and regular football

 50%+1 money in itself isn't meant for the budget, 'working capital' may be, if such a beast ever actually exists. Even if negotiations move forward quickly, I'd have thought it would be close to the end of the year before there wasa vote to confirm it. Anyone thinking we will get full details of any proposed agreement should look up 'commercial confidentiality'.

 As we have unfortunately found out this season with a small squad nearly delvering relegation. I hope we have learnt!

 Sandy, 23/24. We lost the previous week and couldn't make the playoffs. We won 5-1 at home to Walsall on the final day.

 DO. If we keep squad levels the same then I can't see Sasu being on that big of a wedge to price him out of our thinking or to need to free up a wage.

 Anyone remember when we last had a meaningless last match?

 Can’t imagine any of the players are in a “prove yourself in this game or you’re out” kind of scenario so more than happy for them to have the time off. Even those who have struggled to deliver on the pitch have still put in a shift every time of asking this season. JJ will get his party atmosphere I’m absolutely certain of it I suspect the bars may stay fuller longer after half time as the result/performance/squad doesn’t really matter.

 CW - don't they get Wednesday off (on a non-midweeker) anyway?

 They deserve a day or two off after that Wigan win

 Afternoon all. Interesting that JJ has given the players until Thursday off

 Browne is contracted until 2027 isn't he?

 Airsy - I think that WE have the option - not Reeves. Stevens, Hackford and Foyo both under contract, if we can re-sign Bugiel & Browne (which I assume we will try and do) - do we have room for Sasu? Only if we can't sign someone better, IMHO.

 Jackson on air. [Link]

 AIRSY, Please no !!!! But probably if there is no 50+1 money appearing before the summer transfer window, we will be in the bargain basement again.

 It’s going to be a very interesting summer. Good that CC and team can act now as we know we’ll be L1 next season. Last year still had the playoffs to get through before we knew what division we’d be in.

 I think that Sasu will get a new contract offer and Reeves also has an option for another year.

 Suggest that, of our fully fit players, all loanees start on Saturday, plus all those out of contract (& not offered new one) plus any who have indicated they wish to leave. We can then thank them all for their contributions this season and in previous years. Would also be nice if Jennings & maybe Horan started.

 Wonder who will start in goal against Huddersfield.
