I've got to the stage when I can't even remember whether I actually posted something previously, or just thought of something and intended to post but never got round to it - such is the impact of the glorious BRALT.
Anyway, what I might have posted echoes exactly what someone else has said above - this mob simply cannot have their cake and eat it.
Bearwithme was somewhat smugly claming that the club remains in place, and it is simply the company that administers the club that has changed. Hmm....I wonder if he is still ploughing that particular furrow.
If they want to preserve their history, with that comes responsibiilty for the tawdry, ignominious chapters of that history. That accountability cannot be shaken off.
If, however, they hold their hands up and willingly surrender that history (and not just the less than illustrious bits that effectively make up the last 10 - 15 years or so), then they start from scratch. That means they have no history, and, as an entirely new entity, look to work their way up from the bottom of the ladder - one rung at a time.
Edit for typos (and probably didn't get them all).
