Getting worse for Bolton too...

It is with a combination of outrage and disgust that I have to inform Bolton Wanderers fans that the deal to sell the club to Football Ventures has been temporarily suspended in the last hour.
Late this afternoon, we were informed by lawyers acting for Laurence Bassini that he had been awarded a court order attempting to prevent the sale of Burnden Leisure Limited, part of an action against a company owned by Ken Anderson.
It beggars belief that Mr Bassini, a man who publicly professed to care passionately for the club, has now, through his actions, threatened its very existence.
Despite a long and hugely complex process of negotiation, we were finally on the brink of completion this afternoon when Bassini’s order was served.
Our lawyers are now in conversation with Counsel in a bid to overturn the order immediately.
 
Feel sorry for anyone that has to go through this crap as if it wasn't bad enough supporting someone rubbish. Bassini sounds like a **** although I'm not exactly well up on the situation.

I can’t comprehend how somebody, who’s been banned from football can then block the sale of a football club, a proper famous old club, putting at risk folks livelihoods and a community.

Whoever allowed that should be prosecuted. On what grounds? That they’d agreed a sale with a crook and decided against it?
