Hash- the announcements about our next home game made before the Doncaster match were at best brief and terse. Opposition certainly not mentioned by name.

Looking forward to seeing empty seats tomorrow, as there are no tickets available.
Yeah- I started to read Timmy's link and then thought why the hell am I doing this?

Fox starts by mentioning the new asst secs but doesn't name them, as if for fear of betraying a secret.
Quite, OI. And the silence just leads to suspicion and rejection of gaslighting attempts as seen on here.

DTB meeting minutes have long since proven themselves to be just a list of made up things that can be retroactively changed at any given point. Zero value in sharing them to support any given argument.
The impressive thing is that when clearly a lot of people do know the details of the 400K (I don't) that they have persuaded all those people to keep quiet.

We established more than a decade ago that everyone has their own approach to Franchise games and telling others what they should do achieves nothing but aggravation. Simply do what feels right to you.

So, if I owe you money and you tell someone about it, I can refuse to pay you back? What a load of cobblers!

Doubt whether any Franchise supporter will fork out hospitality prices to attend Thursday night.

Probably But they want to sell tickets in hospitality but then say....Please note that you must have previous purchase history from the 2025/26 season in order to buy a ticket for this fixture. Do we want to make a profit or not?

Has club gone back to the policy of pretending franchise game isn't happening?

BW - I can't help thinking that the silence around the £400k is much less around the legal case and much more around embarrassment about the loss. If you are running a business competently you simply don't put yourself in a position where you pay out £400k in advance for something with no security over the money in the event that you don't receive the good/ services. So long as we aren't able to discuss it, all of those awkward questions don't get to be asked.

The club has said that revealing the company could damage the chance of getting any bad debt back - if people cared for our finances they would let the thing run its course. 1) we know the club lost c£400k, 2) we know when 3) we know it’s unlikely to be recovered 4) we know a provision was made for it 2-3 years ago

When the case is over perhaps all can be revealed and lessons learned. I don’t see what revealing now will do to help - it won’t change anything

Really not up to speed on this £400k thing (like most others, I guess) but on what could we possibly have even spent that amount? And in one go…? Big IT contract? The floodlights? I mean, short of players (and obviously not for that amount…) or major stadium upgrades, I just can conceive of what it might be. And surely, most things would be on some sort of staged payment, not all upfront. Maybe I just lack imagination.

Who authorised the spend? There must have been a Purchase Order. Can we see who signed that off?

It’s nearly half a million pounds and we’re in such deep financial trouble that we’re abandoning fan ownership. We should know the details.
Anyone know a) how many franchise allocated for Thursday b) how many they sold

It didn't help their business.
Either way it still doesn’t excuse the fact that no board member of either board has mentioned or even acknowledged the £400,000 that was authorised spend from our accounts for no return and no status update since. This despite begging fans and members for donations.
15th Sep 2026 22:21:55
[195.lo.gg.ed]
And again, having spoken with multiple board members on the subject you can see a wince when it’s mentioned but still the silence. We need an explanation. If there is ongoing legal action then it must be costing us hundreds of thousands of pounds by now.
Going back to the reference to the Scotland case in the DTB minutes, part of me thinks that was left in deliberately as a red herring, just to give the illusion they still have this as a live issue. Maybe they thought it would be fun to watch supporters try to figure out what it relates to when it probably relates to nothing.

Subway was good 25 years ago but can’t touch the stuff these days. And their new breakout product idea of becoming SpudULike was always doomed to fail because SpudULike failed decades ago.

It’s the same poor quality mass produced reheated fillings just in a poor quality mass produced reheated potato that’s not really innovation or even NPD.
