SwellOwl Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Good news, one less thing to worry about... till Friday 26th February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilbyj Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I wonder when the players were due to get paid? The story broke a few days ago and "seems" to have been rectified quite quickly. I just wonder if pay was due before the initial story broke which prompted the abject performance at Coventry?! You can't blame the players for it affecting their performance however it does appear to be being resolved pretty swiftly in every occurrence. It's obviously not ideal but hopefully if performance drops are linked to late wages they may not be as severe as there does seem to be a guarantee that they will get the monies owed in a short space of time?! I imagine we aren't the only club having issues and for some reason ours are being aired in the press but people are getting what they are owed with slight delays. Hard for DC but I think this problem is one that he maybe hasn't brought on himself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can they not just keep a lid on it, or maybe they’re not given reassurances or timescales on when they’re due to get it? Maybe going to the press and putting pressure on the club is what made them get the rest of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not very good for moral if the employer cannot do the basics such as honouring the contracts they mutually signed. Maybe this was one of the reasons for the poor performance at Coventry. Imagine that you and your colleagues got paid last week only to find the boss had only paid 65% of the wages. I'm sure you would all be severely annoyed and footballers are no different.

Hard for DC but I think this problem is one that he maybe hasn't brought on himself! But it's been reported as happening for over a year now - pre COVID A year and he can't correct it? I think DC has exactly brought it upon himself I keep hearing that we can't be the only club having issues, yet we're the only club it keeps getting reported about on a regular basis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that, the point I’m making is that if they’ve been told it’ll be late and will be arriving at said date, then it’s a bit peculiar that they’d run to the press I’m guessing this wasn’t communicated to them though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The press laps it all up as it helps them to sell. Win win for press and players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes no sense to do this odd split thing . I thought that was one of the problems with cash flow problems is that it doesn't flow quite how you want it to.

@owlstalk Posted February 1, 2021 Author Share Posted February 1, 2021 Personally I will always support Sheffield Wednesday over whoever the current chairman is and what they do to our club It appears others have it the other way round Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crookesowl Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 So 1st Feb and the players have been paid in full for January. How was this even a headline? It’s damaging to the club, chairman and reputation of the club to get these things wrong. Can we make a deal of it only when players are seriously late getting paid? This shouldn’t have even been a story. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why does it happen so often though and yet it gets paid eventually? And always same pattern . It makes no sense . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
