Expect an NL announcement with days then.
“New owner in place that we are happy with, or funding evidence from current owner, or bond ……please.”

There is a fair argument that if any authority outside of the current ownership is to blame, it's the EFL for allowing us to operate in the manner we have for so long.

No, the current ownership (not for much longer) are 100% to blame. Not the EFL, not the NL, not Stan, Tom Lawrence, Crate, ITKs, Wolfy (actually he is part of the problem), the council and anyone else who has been blamed…

All we know is that Woking's accounts are up to date and posted in Feb this year
They would be a red flag if reviewed by anyone competent and supplying accounts to the league is apparently a requirement
Beyond that we know nothing and as I say the process is entirely opaque.
Impossible to expect or not expect anything on that basis. Hence, we may as well move on.

All I know is it’s with the NL for final ratification. I was under the impression the fit and proper purpose tests had already been done, but can’t definitely confirm that.
It’s only been with the NL for the last few days I believe…

Would guess it'll drag to next week now. Don't see why the fans can't be updated though

There's no doubt a league with far more scrutiny on its clubs and regulations has come as something of a surprise to the current ownership.

If it’s as close as ITK’s are saying and it could be any day now then there’s no point of COSU to give an update until it’s finalised
There have been updates from several people @Medway Blue is the closest person to all that is happening and he has kept us all up to date. There is very little point anything else coming from the club as all it would say is "things are on track and we are awaiting confirmations"
They have already made the decision that they no longer wish to make any more statements until the deal is 100% done because there have been to many false dawns before.

They wouldn't need to put any dates on it so I don't see why an update isn't possible. If it's been completed by lawyers and awaiting NL approval then I don't see why that couldn't be said just to keep those who don't come on here up to date. They talked about wanting better communication with fans and I feel like they're missing a trick here.

If what you said were true then we would not have the Woking scenario. They have a number of clubs they know, or should know, are heavily loss making, and I see no evidence they do any more than say the EFL in policing owners and their ability or willingness to continue funding. The months, and years, of mismanagement by Ron, and endless WUPs, brought everything in the end to a point where it was impossible ignore or accommodate any longer…which is somewhat different…

Well said and i appreciate the ones ie Medway and boy wonder for all the solid updates it much appreciated for sure and we’re lucky to have them to give us that bit more of a update at times
But it wouldn’t hurt from the club too imo but understand they can’t say anything until it officially which is fair enough like everyone else we didn’t expect it to take this long ..
