So did I. When I went up to the shop a couple of weeks ago to pick up some goods for Christmas, the lady said shirts would hopefully be here in time for the Season Ticket pick up on Sunday 11th in the Coral Stand. Does anyone know if that's still going ahead?

At a guess I would say not

You would hope we have a shirt launch day and season ticket collection day rolled into one, but is looking less likely to be this side of Xmas

I'm still not getting my hopes up. This could all still end in tears.

Re: Administration 3 - now in technicolour : Thu Dec 08, 2016 9:22 am  

I AM getting my hopes up, fully expecting them to be dashed.

Either way we are going to be surprised!
A nice positive one or a big old kick in the knackers.

Amongst the few things we've been told - as in officially, from the administrator - is that there are, or were, three offers still being considered and that they were expecting to conclude a deal "soon".

Taking that as Gospel, I'm personally expecting the the club to carry on, and that being so, despite the fact that we [those of us who have already paid for memberships] are unsecured creditors, that those tickets will most likely be honoured. At the end of the day, as even the boss of Ryanair remarked, it makes little sense to urinate over your loyal customers.

According to Simon Parker (T&A)

Deadline extended for Bulls bids as party came forward "in the 12th hour" according to the administrator.

My Dad went to Odsal and Monday to see what the latest was on tickets and the bloke in the shop said the administrator is guaranteeing that season tickets will be honoured - I presuming that means that the admin is making honouring the tickets a condition of buying the club. The bloke had also sold one to his dad that day so he must be confident of a resolution!

Unless that party was Richard Branson, I'd have told them to F Off and stop dragging it out even further.
