nfb Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 You know what some fans are like, they cant wait to have a moan, it's what makes them happy. No matter the source or the circumstances ? And they haven't had much to moan about yet this year ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CornwallRam Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 We've just got wait and see on this one. If we were going into administration this is how it would start. But there are lots of other possibilities too. Even if it's a cash flow issue, there are also lots of other solutions - investment, cost cutting, selling players, increasing revenue etc. No need to panic, but more significant than 'nothing'.

MackworthRamIsGod Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Well Percy has said more than once that the investment should be down by the end of December. So either an announcement is incoming, or, the Daily Mail have part of their story correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSD Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Footballers on thousands a week have pay delayed by TWO DAYS. My heart bleeds. I know this shouldn't be happening from a business point of you but come on, it's not like Rolls-Royce have stopped ordinary working people's salaries being paid on time.

And some, blimey - A nothing story in the most untrustworthy paper one could find and pitchforks have been raised in anger!! That somehow people are finding a link between this and a proposed investment is quite remarkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LazloW Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 It’s been mentioned already, but I didn’t think we were being taken over; we are expecting investment. Two very different things. Huge amount of speculation going on, both at the ‘meh’ end of the scale and the ‘panic stations’ end of the scale. Only a suggestion, but why don’t we wait and see what - if anything- comes out of the club before getting into a lather about it?

tinman Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I’m surprised no one on here knows someone who works for the club who could say whether they Got paid on time. enough people seem to know someone at the club for transfer rumours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rample Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Rooney can play from 1 January, maybe his exorbitant sponsorship hits the bank and kicks in from then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got some inside info on the wages for those that work in PPS branch of Greggs, if that's any good? *Actually, I don't... but I could make summat up for the kudos!

If it affects staff other than the players, it's a major story. I hope it's related to bank holidays, which would be crappy incompetence at play. If my employer got my pay day wrong by a day, I'd be screwed so it has to be seen as a major foul-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 My credit card company took my payment out early because of the bank holiday. The Daily Mail missed that one didn’t they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen you mention us going into administration a couple of times now, dont believe this is likely BUT... ...IF we went into administration after selling the ground for £80m one year ago you would have to wonder where the money has gone OR ...IF the club had sold the ground but not received the money for it (as I suggested could happen when the accounts were published) then you could certainly understand why the EFL may still be investigating the situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think the article mentioned the staff? If that's the case then Mel has some serious explaining to do, it's not acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s simply a daily fail article in which has a title that is bound to draw several reads. It’s not that deep, I’m sure ? Possibly clutching at straws and hoping there? If payday falls on a bank holiday/weekend etc people are normally paid before the due date not after, BTW,Poundland sell buckets for a quid.
