Jason Whittingham's Bond Group has released a statement this afternoon about Morecambe FC:
We continue to work with a number of potential buyers to secure the future of Morecambe Football Club, all of whom are aware of the urgency of the Club’s position and fully expect this process to complete this week.
There has seen a flurry of interest over the last month, and each potential Buyer has been given the required information and support in order to finalise their intention and plans toward the Club and the Community.
This includes Panjab Warriors who, unfortunately, continue to issue statements that bear no relevance to actual events, are unhelpful and quite frankly bemusing. That said we have agreed to a Mediation meeting with Panjab, for this Wednesday, and await them confirming final details. Despite Panjab’s recent comments it was Bond Group that formally invited Panjab to Mediation but received no response from them.
Those not directly involved in this process choose to make uninformed statements for their own self-promotion, including Members of Parliament. None of these people have made any effort to contact Bond Group in order to discuss the situation directly but instead use their platforms to spread inaccurate information which is irresponsible and has affected the sale process.
Key stakeholders of the club are regularly updated, as we along with our Advisory team engage with Buyers and remain fully supportive of the process.
We will be appointing an Interim Board imminently to facilitate the final stages of the sale process.
More to follow.
Jason Whittingham,
Bond Group Investments LTD
