BIllyD Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Just now, G STAR RAM said: People were probably saying the same in the GSE era. Stuck in the Championship. Losing £9m per year. Owners who no longer wanted to plug that gap. Bottom 6 wage budget. Could only afford 'Barker type fees'. Big difference, under GSE they took us forward, could argue that it was at snails pace, but they did. Under MM we have fallen at an alarming rate, with more off field headlines than on.

What sort of sicko laughs at the players not getting paid? It could mean children go without getting fed and you think that is funny? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topram Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Mel took over us before Wembley, yes we’ve been very close since but this has becoming for a while now, sacking managers left right and centre spending big money on average players etc, now he just wants gone as fast as possible and will try and sell us to anyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In theast 24 hours alone I personally have removed over 50 posts and they have been from "happy clappers" and "doom merchants" (which are 2 phrases I despise on this forum).

Good luck, you're going to need it. A day or so maybe, I would go in, but these players have not been paid for weeks now. In that case, I certainly would not be going in to work until I'd been paid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still a little confused about all this, Why would someone want to buy us for the reported £60million when we don't own the ground, What are the buyers paying for, A group of players that are in the bottom 3, Who owns Moor Farm? is this in the deal?, If not what are they actually buying? Confusing times for me...and others too i'd imagine ?♀️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a freebie piece of advice, hope it helps. And that (unfortunately), is why a lot of crappy employers get away with murder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said the reaction of 'this is the worst state we've been in for 30 years' is the sort of thing we hear quite regularly in the cycle of this football club. I don't think it is. People will always comment on the ownership, as the do the team. It's been a long time since we have faced relegation, with the sort of headlines that we do on a regular basis. Also irrelevant, you can only compare the two tenures, as it stands now, the poster believes that this is the worst the club has been for 30 years, at this point it's hard to argue, regardless of why anyone said in the past.
