Could be yes, certainly I would have been reticent to give Pulis money to spend

Who would you give the money to then?.

Might give us an idea of who you want as manager.

Only clubs in real dire straits will take that loan. The caveats from the EFL are insanely restrictive. If we take it then it’s not good news atall. 

 

Exactly

That’s the most plausible explanation 

 

Large international money transfer into British bank will cause money laundering alarm bells and additional regulatory checks

 

Still doesn’t excuse the lack of forward planning by the owner to ensure sufficient cash was in the club to pay the wages

But it's not the first in payment from the same source....or is it?

Who knows. Also we don’t know the amount.

If I were a member of the playing staff at Wednesday I would spend 99% of my time on the phone to my agent trying to force a move, not prepping for the next game.

 

Shambles

 

We are gonna get tanked by Colin's boys tonight, he will make a point of rubbing our noses in it.

It’s a player I’ve always reckoned. But it’s got to be someone who’s still around since Carlos came in because Nixon hasn’t missed a beat since that summer.

When you're dealing with large sums of money, even one day's worth of interest is a substantial amount. Most rich people have a diverse portfolio of assets and only keep a percentage as liquid. Will take time and cost a certain amount of money to transfer over/convert. Not as simple or as easy as having everything in a Post Office account.

It's like the missing new kit all over again.

That explains why we are the only club not paying the players and every other club in the professional game is paying their players.

It's in the facking country!

 

What in the name of Waddle is going on here!

It's not like the olden days where the money for the wages was brought round in physical cash. These days it can be instantly transferred from a bank at the far side of the world direct to someones bank account.

 

'It's in the country' is just another complete nonsense. The players have been paid in full or they haven't. There is no half way house.

[Mr Farrell]

It's in the country is another way of saying the cheques in the post.

 

Total rounduns.

I would guess that it isn't a case of instantly transferring money from a bank at the far side of the world to someones bank account. 

More likely to be having to release assets from either another company or an investment, and then transferring that into either a personal or business bank account before it can be transferred into this country.

Which is fine

But if you fail to do this on time repeatedly, time after time after time you'd surely start the process a month earlier to make sure it arrives on time next time?

I'm not saying it's right mate, just really replying to the post referring instantly transferring money and saying it may not be that easy.

I doubt many millionaire business men have large cash assets in their bank accounts. It doesn't make money that way.

Might not be that simple to transfer a couple of million quid internationally.... sure that it was delayed last time I tried.
