Will the new owners pass the "fit and proper test"? Is there actually still a test? Given some of those that have passed it in the past, I really do wonder. Nose in can’t do maths shocker. They definitely would have gone down without points deductions for Derby and reading. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightoffyour Posted May 8, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted May 8, 2022 (edited) Well if you just add on the deducted points they would have stayed up on GD, but that doesn’t account for different scenarios and Reading having something to play for etc. (could say the same for Blues too in the interest of balance) Edited May 8, 2022 by fightoffyour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted May 8, 2022 Moderator Share Posted May 8, 2022 I wonder if they'll be wanting to get a sale done before Tracy Crouch and the governmental group put together the new 'fit and proper persons test'. There's talk of the government applying that test annually - to existing owners - which would f*** up the debt traders in charge here very quickly and might lead to a delisting on the HKSE - they won't want to risk that.

They had the whole lockdown period to get some proper seat coverings, like every other club did, and that’s the best they came up with? Just bulldoze it all, for the sake of humanity.

Popular Post useless Posted May 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 8, 2022 Our former goalkeeper Šarkić has been named as their player of the season, doesn't say much for their other players considering he hasn't played since January 2nd, and has missed half their season playing in just 23 of their 46 league games this season, he's also not even their player but on loan from Wolves. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciggiesnbeer Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 They have managed to hang on again in the Championship then. Good season for them that. Open bus parade time. League one will come soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post wict01 Posted May 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 9, 2022 Sure I've seen that Gaz Williams around on twitter - think he is undergoing treatment for a fairly severe illness atm so even if the club is still a joke, it's nice they've done something like that for him. I lost my dad to cancer last year, and pre-Covid the Villa Foundation got him and my mum tickets in one of the executive boxes for the home game against Burnley. Nice to acknowledge long-term fans going through a tough time, even if their choice in club is questionable 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted May 9, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted May 9, 2022 Amused to see that if you removed Reading and Derby's points deductions then Blues would have stayed up on goal difference. Which is absolutely typical of them. I'm sure they'd have got a DVD out of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
