It's judgement day in Belekon's high court action against the Oystons, who's he's accused of improperly extracting tens of millions of pounds from Blackpool FC after winning promotion to the Premier League in 2010. http://www.blackpoolgazette.co.uk/n...-decided-today-in-high-court-ruling-1-8842293 The slimy bastards will probably get away with it, but it would be rather splendid if they lost.
I truly hope they don't get away with it, I think if they lost there would be a whole lot of celebrating going on.
Back henry street worth a read, over 50 Blackpool fans in court at the verdict, their saying the total with costs is expected to be north of £ 40 million .
Does this, or will this, benefit Blackpool fans in any way? Or does it simply mean even less cash for the club and the possibility of darker times ahead?
It gets better... David Conn @david_conn Blackpool FC: Judge has refused the Oystons leave to appeal his judgment. They will have to apply to the Court of Appeal for right to appeal.
I think it depends if wants to go ahead with the £31m purchase of Belekon's shares, as ordered by the court, or if he'll now try and do a deal where he ends up giving the club to Belekon instead.
Sadly many Blackpool fans have become apathetic about football in general now, Obviously they'll get an attendance boost if the ****ers **** off but they've lost quite a few fans for good i think. Wonder how many city fans won't bother anymore even if Allams go.
The full 163 page judgement, just in case anyone's got ten hours spare... https://www.judiciary.gov.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/vbfa-v-blackpoolfc.pdf
