Massive blow.

So a famous old club goes into administration. It's problems involve a lack of football background with its owner, a stadium allowed to deteriorate, and a policy of selling its best players. Do those issues ring any bells?

No idea who you might be referring to Wimborne, what a shocking way to run a football club. Watching Sheffield fans interviews they were mainly just glad to see the back of their owner under any circumstances.

After that it is difficult to see any silver lining. The January get out of jail card looks a very long shot. PL status looks all but over, a very long hard winter beckons. I cannot see any quick return either with appalling management still in situ. Rated is correct we need to clear the decks and try to start again with a more honest owner. Sadly this will take some while.

Maybe I was over hopeful, but given the lead time on Cunha and likelihood of the departure of Ait Nouri, I would have expected the position on incomers to replace them to be well advanced, but no news yet. Could the changes re Hobbs have come about for reasons of disagreement at that level, or above? I really am banking on a sensible window to preserve and build on what we have. Anything less will be like nails in the proverbial. I really hope we can avoid a last minute scramble and panic purchases.

Think we should spare a thought for Liverpool fans after the horrendous news.
1.) 27 May 2025 16:20:30
Agree totally Wimborne mate.
2.) 27 May 2025 20:33:31
Naturally offer my sincere thoughts towards Liverpool fans, and Liverpool folk alike Wimborne, seems nobody is safe in this country anymore. Why/how do these idiots think they're going to achieve anything by doing this?
3.) 27 May 2025 20:34:02
Looked horrendous. I know a few people who went who were stranded in Liverpool overnight.

I would not be surprised, and nor would I blame VP for walking. Fosun have let their reputation slide with their lack of support for managers and promises unfulfilled. With a stated lack of ambition it is difficult to convince players to come. I can't imagine any decent manager coming if VP goes.
15 May 2025 14:56:58
Good post Madman, lots of interesting variables and possibilities within a plan. No doubt VP has similar thoughts along those lines to keep to his style. I think it would be daft to unload RAN, just because the is not the full deal. He makes many contributions to attacking moves and assists. We do not have the luxury of being in the market for perfect oven ready players, and cannot keep unloading good players in the vague hope of getting a better one. Building on what we have would be a welcome change.

I agree Bullys. I cannot think that a quality mamager would contemplate taking on this basket case. Maybe a has been who would look at some short term role, ie to season end, for quick dosh. Surely anyone with a CV would want written into a contract firm commitments from Fosun that they are unlikely to sign up to.

Well said Rugeley?
20 Aug 2023 11:56:22
If it is a sale the timing seems strange. Fosun is a global investment company and would have been more likely to sell when Wolves were a more attractive prospect. At present they are a club hindered by FFP, which will be the same for a new owner, and a possible scenario of championship football on the horizon. It is possible Fosun are under pressure to raise cash, but what they would get for Wolves is small beer.

Too close to the truth Wandering.
26 Oct 2025 21:37:46
Thanks Villadaz, need to move swiftly to give this club a chance to turn things round, and on more than one front. Liked your result today.
26 Oct 2025 16:30:53
I agree. That performance was naive. Poor tactics, poor team selection, no fight. We look like mediocre Championship side. You season ticket holders deserve a refund.
26 Oct 2025 14:54:13
Not quite Wandering. A brilliantly worked second goal, but before that utter crappage.
11 Oct 2025 17:52:16
The footie season falls into a familiar rhythm with Fosun at the helm. I believe I mentioned their business plan a few years ago, to buy young and cheap and sell on for maximum profit. As an investment company this is their raison d'etre, to make profit and/or sell with enhanced value. They have discovered how difficult this is to do in the Premiership without a global presence and a huge stadium. They made some effort to enhancing Wolves profile globally, spoke of a new stadium, then COVID hit, and as a group Fosun, who were highly geared, were caught with their pants down. Since then the group has sold assets to reduce debt and focus on the profitable cash producing parts of their empire. Wolves value has improved since their purchase but the plan to create a club that figures highly on the World stage and to create huge value is long gone. It offers the group none of the high profile they envisaged. They fail to understand the connection with fans, they understand only what makes money. I have previously referred to the statement they made in the 2022 accounts.that their intent was to dispose of assets that do not produce cash. Hence their lazy approach to the summer window, knowing they have the capacity to spend in January to save Prem status. This is a view that lacks understanding of Prem football. I believe their intent is still to sell, their problem is who is going to be the buyer?
