    I hope they do not get the points deduction, they have suffered enough with the Oyston's .

    I hope they avoid a points deduction too. It's going to be tough for them to get people used to going to games regularly again. Some will be watching other clubs like Fylde and others will have fallen out of love with the sport and might not bother trying to get back the passion for it.

    I have relatives in Blackpool , and when I was kid I would go over on some of the school holidays and stay there. My cousin Brian would often take me to Bloomfield road with him to the games. So I do have a bit of a soft spot for them.

    Receivers job is to get best price. I believe though the offer in effect would have to be passed by FAbvis there proper person checks

    The decision was based on the assets being kept together and the club being a going concern. So if the receivers were faced with multiple offers for separate assets, they have to follow judgement and sell as a pack... in the interests of keeping the club together, not the highest offer necessarily.

    The club has been placed into the hands of receivers. He doesn't own the club anymore.

    Pl
    played a blinder, took £20 million out in cash during he premier league after borrowing from some random Eastern Europe gangster to get them there. Then refuse to pay him back and the punishment will be on the Blackpool fans. It might be a “victory” for the fans but this Olson guy must be p@ssing himself!!
