Looks like 50% of people got it right.
Which means 50% of people got it wrong. Which is disturbing. It was hardly rocket science...

Out of interest, which 50% were you in, on this occasion?

BWFC lives on and UK still in Europe.
I passionately agree and campaign for the former and passionately disagree with and campaign against the latter. Not that that influences the actual outcome of either. However both BWFC continuing, and the UK not leaving, were so Obvious as outcomes, I cannot see why anybody with a pulse would have thought the outcome would have been different...

I'm not sure anything about either situation is as obvious as you claim, Lep.

You may notice our elected representatives at one end of the island are rather unsure as to how best to proceed.

Meanwhile our club's owner up the nicer end of the country, well, he doesn't have the money to keep the lights on and we're being taken to court by Her Maj next week.

March 29th still looks a long way off to me, my spotty friend. I wonder whether more than 13% now think we face extinction?

(For the record, I didn't vote AFAIK, but I probably would have been in the 50% slice)

All I can say in my defence is that some of us are, more and more often, referred to be "in the spectrum".
Frankly, it's getting to be that those who aren't are the minority...

It isn't the 29th of March yet and there is a rather obvious event in relation to BWFC before that date that certainly means your certainty on that date is a little misplaced at this point in time.

The poll ended on the 9th.
The court case with HMRC that takes place after the 9th but before the 29th won't, even if it goes against us, see us deconstructed: things like appeals exist if you didn't know!?

The court on 20th can issue a winding up order (and it isn't unlikely either). Which is incredibly hard to appeal. And Anderson should that happen is not wasting his money doing so.

I've heard some hysterical bollox in my life, but the latest panic fanny hysteria surrounding the club right now really is of the highest order.
Discuss (and vote - probably the only opportunity you'll get).
Hysterical? What do you see as the viable ways out from our current position?

There are only 2 - Anderson sells. We enter admin.

Which would you say is the most likely?
On January 9th, [before round two and three of the non-meaningful meaningful votes in parliament - but that's different bollox] BWFCi came out with the above guff ^^^

Given there were ONLY TWO POSSIBLE options, how is that neither has occurred??????????????????

I didn't say "by 29th March". Also everything I said has been proven 100% correct. We are now in a situation where in court the club's legal representative has admitted we either need to sell or we'll "take admin". Those remain and are clearly documented as the only two ways out. Of course the possibility of NOT GETTING OUT AT ALL and liquidating is very much on the table now.

So a) I was not hysterical - my prediction has come to pass.
b) In trying to claim some sort of victory in dragging this up you look like a complete and utter tit.
