    Not sure if it was ever on. The bloke seems like a total waste of space..

    And as I mentioned before, given he was forced into liquidation before over a pub, a PUB, there is no way he has the resources to buy a football club like Bolton. The Watford deal was all smoke and mirrors until he was found out in less than a year. Shyster, end of.

    I remember the letter from the bank confirming proof of funds for the Watford deal was found out to be a forgery.

    Though he obviously is a shyster, the pub was rather more than a room with a bar in it, it was actually a pub/hotel and conference/wedding venue.

    Maybe Bolton could play there. Looks like a decent pitch.

    Given who the major creditors are, it should be sufficient to push through an admin deal

    Bolton Wanderers: Laurence Bassini (bankrupt until 2015) says he has shown the EFL proof he has the £millions required to take over the club; EFL position is he hasn't provided the information they require. #bwfc

    Bolton v Brentford won't now be played, Brentford have been awarded a 1-0 win.

    Would have been interesting if a promotion or play off spot or a relegation spot depended on the result!

    Yes very interesting , the EFL might have had to make a difficult decision or actually do something about the situation

    I looks like nobody is willing to fund the administration, which makes liquidation more likely, but as those owed money risk losing it without administration, one of them might blink first and decided it's safer to fund the admin.

    Eddie Davies’ family are still the biggest creditor, there’s also current owner Anderson and HMRC.

    Trustees of Eddie Davies c£23.5m, S James c£2.5m, K Anderson c£5m, plus many more inc HMRC c£2m, various staff c£2.3m. Total debt quoted as c£41.6m. If the trustees of Eddie Davies decide to not apply for administration, I suspect it's dead in the water.

    Along with a number of Bolton fans who will see one less game than expected ( and paid for) this season!
