“Unfortunately, there are several local individuals who are making themselves very busy talking to the media and anyone else who will listen, purporting to be buying the club.
“I can categorically state that most of the names being mentioned on social media are people who might have expressed an interest, but have never been able to provide documentary evidence that they have the liquid cash funds.â€
The Bolton owner also posted comments about the players’ recent decision to go on strike.

He added: “Obviously, the players’ decision to go on strike is very disappointing and once again, I would reiterate that in my three years at the club, the staff have only been paid late once and yesterday was only the second time.
“Likewise, the players have also only been paid late three times. The reality is that they have always been paid.
“We are not the only club to have paid players late and there are many precedents of this happening.â€
