Not knowing the full story but how sad an established Club has gone to the wall for a debt of £148,000., little more than some PL players weekly wage
I fail to understand this statement - The MP for Hereford and South Herefordshire called the move "a victory". Jesse Norman said it was "a bittersweet moment, but the fact of the matter is that after months and months of delay we have now won though" (through?) "I think it is the best Christmas present we could ever have wanted and this is the beginning of something very significant and good and long-term and new in football for Herefordshire". How can someone representing the people of Hereford delight in their football club's demise? On a broader aspect,with all the massive amounts of money flowing into the Premier League surely there's more than enough left over to set up a fund to help these struggling clubs,or have all the greedy players sucked their clubs dry with their huge wage demands?
I think they are relieved to have got rid of the bloke who took the club to the wall. Noiw I guess they have a chance for the supporters to have a big say in the running of a new club.
A sad day for Hereford. I've always had a soft spot for them since this............................ [video=youtube;z-ze42I6NEo]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-ze42I6NEo[/video]
Sad to see happen. They were the first team elected in to the Football League from the day I started watching football. They even made it to the old 2nd division, then sadly it all went tits up. I dare say there will be more to follow. The likes of Grimsby, Wrexham, Lincoln, Stockport could be next in line...
I don't think that would be a good idea at all. It would just teach clubs that they can overspend and someone else will always be around to pay the bill. It would be a complete disaster. While it's sad for Hereford fans, it good that teams do go bust, as that should teach other teams to live withing their means. There is no excuse for getting into debt like this. If you don't have it, then don't spend it. Gross stupidity to keep spending money you don't have.
