Davkaus Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) I quite enjoyed this writeup of his time pretending to be about to take over Bolton https://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/sport/20207747.bolton-wanderers-laurence-bassini-timeline-unfortunate-events/ Quote April 26, 2019: Bassini says he will inject £1million in personal funds to pay players and avoid strike action, forcing the cancellation of a Championship game against Brentford. “I am not going to allow this game to be postponed,” he said. “I will do everything I possibly can to make sure the players get paid and that this game goes ahead.” April 27, 2019: Wanderers game against Brentford is postponed. It is the first time in Football League history that a game has been cancelled in such a way. Wanderers issued a statement claiming Bassini had not provided the short-term funding he had pledged on signing the Sale and Purchase Agreement. April 28, 2019: Bassini denied that he had guaranteed to provide short-term funding “I had a meeting with the manager and said I would deal with the wages but I could not put a time frame on it. Anyone who says I did is incorrect,” he told The Bolton News. Edited June 15, 2022 by Davkaus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StewieGriffin Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 He sounds like the kind of owner that a club would have had when their fans pinpoint where it really went downhill on their fall through the leagues (Portsmouth style).

useless Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) Argentine TV now claiming that Maxi Lopez is about to buy them. I doubt it's true, but even if it is I don't think it will be much better for them if it's the same deal that Bassini agreed to.

I would be surprised they would go back to SHA, I thought Sullivan and Gold were West Ham "fans"... Gold is a lifelong West Ham fan, was even on the books as a youngster. Sullivan though professes to be a Cardiff fan having been born there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Talksport have posted a slightly longer version of the interview with Bassini, in that one says that there's a document that should he default on the money he's borrowed from Sullivan, then Sullivan won't take the club.

Rob182 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Moxley has posted an interesting thread on Twitter where he essentially downplays Bassini’s involvement and actually says this new ownership is a good thing (based on investment/ sorting the ground/ and interestingly, Craig Gardner’s role in it), I’m hoping someone who’s more up-to-speed on it all can call BS on his thoughts!
