I would not be surprised if the 1893 was dropped and Enfield FC used, it is already, un-officially.

Those sort of comments are not helpful . If this very sad and frustrating situation continues ,Then nobody wins ,If you cant say anything helpful then I suggest you stay off this subject as L/S suggests you do. We all want an end to this saga someday . Please dont allow your petty gripes to sour an interesting topic . You seem to have lost sight of who the villan was Tony Laz dont take it out on steve.

Very true! When i first went to watch EFC at Southbury Road, the ES were one of the biggest and best non league teams. Playing in a great stadium with a good atmosphere. Now there are 2 teams, one playing the likes of Beaumont and APSA the other playing the likes of Waltham Abbey and Arlesley.

Neither side have really captured the imagination and support of the tens of thousands of football fans in the borough and area.

TWAT. the 'new' owners were in charge of EFC years before liquidation, the 'new' owners maybe didn't have a choice in the matter of liquidation as they had to try the impossible task of repaying TL's debts and did do for a long time. EFC were playing in Ware, so we should have changed our name and got a new badge? EFC1893 was created with the same EVERYTHING as EFC just without debts, stealing the badge? what a load of rubbish. I'm sure we would have much rather chose to play in Enfield had we the chance. The papers in Enfield still report Enfield games (however little) and the majority of support travel from Enfield to get to games so we must still have some connection with Enfield..

Thanks for the personal abuse! When you take over a business you would normaly carry out a due dilligence to assess the financial status of the business you wish to take over. If this had been done then your present board may not have taken on the risk. Then to just liquidate and get rid or your debts and to set up a a new business that is exaclty the same as the old one seems to me to be totally wrong. Set up a new buisiness and club by all means but don't trade under the banner of a club that doesn't exist.

Totally agree with you Happy.

 

"the 'new' owners maybe didn't have a choice in the matter of liquidation as they had to try the impossible task of repaying TL's debts and did do for a long time. "

 

If they had looked at the company before "purchasing" it then they would have known that the task was "impossible" so why not let the club go into liquidation?

 

One has to seriously consider their motives.

or their competence

My dear old friend , Sorry if you get offeneded by my comments but The Townies to my knowledge are carrying some degree of debtt .Would you and youre fellow townie clan members have the same opinions if you lot went tits up . I doubt it very much ,Mr Happy makes statements that could well one day bite him on the ar$e and guess who will let him have it . I call it skating on thin ice mate. Regards KC.

Private school fees of 8k a term,and what do Tarqiuns parents get for all their hard earned?One holed up with a alien invader,eating cold baked beans.The other pursuing a career as a unwashed jobless nuisance.i bet they are very proud.

Not everyones perfect , You aint .

[Steph]

MFM Of course I dont get offended.

 

I daresay Enfield Town do have debts, why not? It is normal business practice. However Happy and I agree that debts have to be honoured and taken into account when doing business. It is there where I have to disagree with you. You seem to suggest that debts can be ignored and forgotten about. I know that you really dont hold to that view so why do you associate with people that do.

 

Enfield Town was born out of the lies that were told to us by TL and it seems that EFC continued the same as the old boss as coup would say.
