Wasn't Mr Andy Pilley held up as an example of how to run a football club, M K Don's not in a good way financially, Crawley and FGR both basket cases, maybe Rupp isn't as bad an option as we think.

 

I remember a discussion on here a few years ago about Fleetwood and FGR and how great their owners were at pumping cash in for training grounds etc.
Will be interesting to see if he is/was still bank rolling them and if so if this will end now

 

Fleetwood owner Andy Pilley jailed for 13 years for fraud.Now fraud may be a serious matter,but you don't always get that long for manslaughter.

 

Off topic but talking of people going! Andy Pilley Fleetwood owner has gone today. Gone down for 13 years for £15 million fraud.

 

Got 13 years

 

Just looked at their last accounts and they owe about £27m to companies owned or controlled by Pilley and there is a comment in the going concerns section that the club needs continued support by the owner to keep going. So they may be in trouble

 

Is this heading the same way as that Gretna one a few years back when he either stopped funding them or was unable to?

 

Scunthorpe! Wilco’s in a debt pile!
