nbupperthongowl Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 In the great scheme of things, how much is the season ticket refund total? 2 weeks salary payments....so not a big issue, a smokescreen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised as to why it has just come out. He has worked with me for one year now. He is one of my advisors, nothing special. He is not a shareholder at the club. If he or anyone was going to be a shareholder, they need to be shown by the EFL. Trevor Francis? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzys Dad Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Late to this and have scrolled through ignoring everything and only reading Neil’s posts. I can’t describe how odd that feels. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can't then he needs to employ someone who can. Instead, he takes every criticism personally and chucks his toys out of the pram. He's a spoilt kid and nothing more. He doesn’t owe us transfer signings whatever way you look at it. If I was chairman and the entire fanbase wanted me out and were abusing me online, would I spend millions on transfers?

What was once disposable income has become far less disposable. For a multi-millionaire to be holding other's money hostage in this way is unforgivable. To defend him for doing so falls into the same category as far as I'm concerned. It’s disposable income. Not dependable income.

They have to fit into my philosophy. They have not signed yet, the agent try to make it difficult sometimes. It’s not under out control when we can bring players in if players and clubs do not let you. I think not paying their wages on time makes it more difficult.

After all these years he still hasn’t got a grip of football and what it’s all about. Doesn’t make it right though. Just because every football club has idiots abusing people on social media, or every football club has an element within their fan base who are unhappy no matter what doesn’t make it right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted December 31, 2020 Author Share Posted December 31, 2020 DC on outgoing players in January I don’t know yet on loan players. Flint needs to go I think, but the other, Marriott, I am not sure yet. Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it’s taking time, but other clubs are in the same position also. Some clubs aren’t even giving it them back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted December 31, 2020 Author Share Posted December 31, 2020 DC on the club’s financial future Covid has made everything more difficult. Cashflow is difficult. My own business has slowed. We don’t have any issue for that. Sometimes it gets bad. It is not a normal situation. Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him or the buyer? If he thinks he will get what he invested (which isnt £350 mill by the way), then hes more deluded than i thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellbeaten-the-owl Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Just now, billyblack said: Ok fair enough. But the figures for that accounting period wont be affected by covid though. The only way the figures will change is the ground sale and interest etc Yes but can't release them until auditors sign off the audit report, and they need to consider the ability of the business, with no income in midst of a pandemic, to continue as a going concern. Big audit firms got in trouble / reprimanded for the big companies that have gone bust in last few years that were given clean audit reports 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazapeps Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Does my head in when he says he’s done things because “the fans” wanted it or told him to do so. I certainly didn’t want or ask for it. I just wanted him to run the club with some competence and structure. This is a real football club and business. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
