People the same people, over and over again saying that some fans ‘want’ Pools to go into Administration.

I’m sorry nobody can lack that much perception and understanding of a situation this is completely out of order.

Nobody who is a supporter of Hartlepool United wants the club to go into Administration that is an insulting and poisonous thing to incinuate, it would be devastating for the club and Town but if the club doesn’t find a buyer very soon it is the reality we face no matter how much money is raised in the next two weeks the club is nearly £2 million in debt. So for the last time and I’ll say this as simply possible; people saying that they don’t think giving owners who have told us nothing and kept us in the dark money is the right thing to do in this situation is NOT saying that they WANT the club to go into administration. EVERYONE is hoping and praying that someone steps forward and saves the club before it comes to anything like this.

Some people seem to think administration is an option they can accept or decline. They're detached from reality .

I read all of the forums on social media and I cant find one comment from anyone saying they want Pools to go into administration. Many people suggesting it might be the better option and giving good reasons why. Whoever is saying this is clearly just out cause mischief or worse just doesnt understand. If they dont understand then it would be better for that person to shut up.

My thoughts were the trust stepping in and taking over all debt would pose more problems long term than the club entering administration and then the trust stepping in with almost a clean slate. Obviously you have to take into account what league that would result the club being in and other factors but inevitably we'd fall to the same fate if we had millions of pounds of debt hanging over our head.

Everyone's choice would clearly be a rich benefactor but lets be realistic!

How do we know the club has debts of £1.8m and its costs £120k a month to run the club.
Where is the evidence what is the breakdown of these amounts?
Smoke mirrors and brinkmanship!

Duxbury is full of shit. Broken promise after broken promise. How she can claim the club is more professional that it was previously is some sort of sick joke. You can guarantee that she wont give ANYONE a breakdown of how she has come up with a figure of £200k and where it will go.
Would love to know how much money she is on. Likewise her Head of Recruitment. Also how much of this £200k would go back to Sage in interest payments.

It "could" be the debts (£1.8m) is made up of a very large % owed to Sage for loan and unpaid interest and the remaining would be a very manageable amount????
Also it "could" be the running costs per month (£120k) are made up of a very large % of interest on the debt and the real running costs of the club are no where near that £120k figure quoted.

The point i am making is that non of us know because we dont know the detail and the devil is in the detail.

Ring-fence all donations to these funds that are being set up, get some clear financial governance arrangements in place for their future use and wait until this game is played out.
