Bates said that if we'd stayed up we'd have gone into admin next week (and so started in the Championship on -10 pts).
I don't think there's much doubt he's planned for administration all along - but he may well have hoped to avoid it. Probably space for innumerable theories about the players' displays, Captain Clogger in particular. Then there's the Butler thing Bates mentioned - were any of the others up to that too? (Who is Wise's "best friend", anyway? I thought Bates & Poyet were his only friends.) We'll probably be playing the Conspiracy game for real soon when the League find some trumped up weaselly reason for refusing to approve us coming out of administration, thus throwihng us into chaos for 18 months (the maximum time we can spend on administration). Or there's the QPR one. Have you heard the one about how Southend might stay up?
