We aren't paying players wages, so much so they are looking to leave. We owe thousands of fans season ticket money despite promises to pay them back. Oh, and we stopped paying wages in full four months before the pandemic. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All our money comes from DC so if he has cashflow issues then what can he do? it's a pandemic thinks aren't gonna go just swimmingly for every team.

We part of some sort of elite club? Like a reverse Super League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably loads of clubs are struggling...it's a pandemic at the end of the day Probably loads of clubs struggling. Derby? Yep. Who else? Honestly which other club in the football league has an almost daily s** sandwich served at them. Because that is what we’re getting under this chairman. We are the worst run club in the football league. By far and away. It’s disaster after disaster. But people excuse it because other clubs ‘are probably struggling’ where’s your proof? At what other clubs are player rejecting furlough and threatening to walk away from their contract because they haven’t been paid in 4 months? Relegation. Refunds which were due well over a year ago. He has to find millions to pay a loan against the stadium we no longer own. We need a whole new squad yet are trying to attract players to a club where wages don’t get paid and actual playing staff are threatening to leave while under contract - that is pretty much unheard of in this country. Why are people finding excuses? The man is killing us. And he will end SWFC as we know it. Bloody mark my words. 16 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manwë Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 The next step will be the PFA coming in, that will either lead to the pay issues being resolved, or the PFA reporting Wednesday to the EFL, which will ultimately lead to a points deduction. There's no way we are signing anyone of significance in the summer if this continues. Embargo and not paying players means even freebies won't come. If Chansiri cared for Wednesday, he would have walked by now. A slow and painful strangulation is upon us and has been since early 2019, and we are still too polite to ask him to stop. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It started the moment Forestieri missed the penalty against Huddersfield in 2017. Chancer’s gamble had failed then. And since then it’s been a slow painful death as it’s emerged he is a mixture of incompetent, stubborn, clueless and reckless without any sort of plan or willingness to build solid foundations. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy24 Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 10 minutes ago, Ellis Rimmer said: Why? Probably loads of clubs are struggling...it's a pandemic at the end of the day As others have said, maybe some other clubs are struggling. Still doesn't make things ok for us being part of that band. And we seem to be the only club that is in the news day after day, week after week with news of unpaid players, furlough requests, broken boiler that we can't afford to fix, cash flow problems, not owning the ground, a lender who we owe a huge wedge to later this year having a mortgage charge over the ground! Our list is endless!!! Would you do business with a company that had our reputation and rumours/facts flying around as detailed above? Pretty soon no players, suppliers or service partners will want to deal with us for fear of not getting paid. I don't know if the chairman or his family can get any more cash in to the football club but it sure as hell doesn't look like it to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
