    Bury was fairly obvious, so was Bolton. The FL has to ratify transfers. Why was Doidge allowed to go through? Why were Bury allowed to sign players by selling off the ground etc. Maybe they have to have proof of funds when signing players

    Bury have to meet all the EFL's outstanding requirements by 23 August 2019 or they will be thrown out of the league:

    Could this potentially mean 5 go up from League 2?

    As bad as it is for Bury this would be very good news for us.

    Exactly. He's an asset stripper, no two ways about it.

    Many Bury fans (and others) are 'alleging' that Steve Dale can make a big profit by letting the Football Club go under and selling the ground for housing development.

    The area is ‘mixed’ at best. So it isn’t in one of the more affluent areas of the town. Having said that Bury is seen as more desirable, than many of the other Manchester satellite towns. I would have thought that he would struggle to get planning permission, if the club folded. However Bury have, under previous owners talked about relocating! https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/bury-fc-confirm-want-move-12096760

    If you go to Bury's home page there are only about 6 players left in the first team.

    Dawson,Danns and Bunn should be on Bowyer's radar.

    This is the published details, ‘The combined cash at bank value for all businesses where STEVEN holds a current appointment equals £2k, a combined total current assets value of £1.5m with a total current liabilities of £7.5m and a total current net worth of £2m. Roles associated with Mr Steven Derek Dale within the recorded businesses include: Director’ https://companycheck.co.uk/director/918430351/MR-STEVEN-DEREK-DALE/summary
    He is a 63 year old, who apparently has ‘health issues’. https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/bury-owner-steve-dale-says-16747461
    Consequently he may not be fit to enter into a time consuming and very lengthy process, which would need to elapse, before any housing development could proceed on the Gigg Lane site. Would/could he realise a substantial profit in his lifetime?

    Pretty sure they would (if they could) have to start again way down the leagues, but for what it's worth, I think they are gonners...

    Sadly, I think their current owner is going to let them go under (at least as far as this season is concerned). What happens after that, who knows.

    Reading the EFL statement, my first impression was that Bury would have to rejoin the pyramid as a non-league club. However, some media outlets are interpreting it as a possible opening for them to rejoin in League Two.

    I think it is still owned by the club, so Dale, however the club had in effect remortgaged it to provide funds to bolster the wage bill as you commented on. It is how much is owed, and the CVA. I guess you will have a far better understanding of the mechanisms and potential.
