    Thanks for the info and analysis, @Red Rain. Not sure I agree with this statement though:

    For most that may be the case but many high wealth individuals have done quite nicely out of Covid19 and many industries have not been as badly affected as football. As you yourself allude to, looking at the sources and recent performance of owners' non-football interests might be as good an indicator of which clubs are most likely to go into admin as looking at the balance sheets of the clubs themselves.

    Basically, all that means is that some nosey individuals have asked for some details. They will not be given that information unless they can prove that they have the finance and a genuine intent to purchase from the Administrator.

    For some reason Football clubs can be good money laundering sites and that’s why due diligence is SUPPOSED to help .
    Also many businesses are restructuring rather than going into liquidation as although they havnt been trading other businesses have also been in hibernation so competition isn’t taking their buisness .

    Most of them will be fans who think they could buy it on their credit card.

    Is there any clue in that the tweet looks to have come from a Stoke newspaper journalist?

    No chance Stoke will go into administration.

    If a few more head that way I could see the spineless EFL suspending points deductions due to Covid.
    As @SuperTyke said these clubs have known the situation for months and not furloughed the staff who cost millions in wages.

    Yeah any business who still deals with large amounts of cash transactions..

    Footy clubs can pump some dodgy cash thru the books and simply inflate attendances. Be a lot harder if no pay on the gate, same with catering if taking cash payments and run by club.

    Bet footy is rife with it...

    That's the reason turnstiles were introduced many years ago.

    The crazy thing is it could easily be one of many.

    Would anyone be surprised if it was any of Birmingham, Blackburn, Wednesday, Reading, Millwall, Charlton etc.

    League’s three quarters full of badly run clubs

    I hope its reading or Birmingham.
    Millwall doesn't really help us as they would not go below us.
