We don’t pick the team, sign the players , tell them where to play , so have no power over that either. we have just been relegated because we couldn’t pay players and decided to mess about with our accounting and fans are telling other fans to not think or comment about possibly more late payments . Very odd Good question, sure my time could be better spent! I'm not telling anyone what to think or comment on and have said it is a concern for me. Just think that it is something none of us really know anything about at the moment, which is why we are reliant on the journalists who have direct contacts within the club to keep raising the questions. As far as concentrating more about things on the pitch, it is at least something some of us actually see and pass comment on from at least a self-belief of some understanding of it!

Very odd Don’t think anyone was saying you can’t discuss it ( this isn’t Facebook) just not to worry about it. Buddha said there’s no point worrying about yesterday, you can’t change it, and no point worrying about tomorrow because it has not happened. It only causes you stress and unhappiness. Focus your attention on today and the things you can affect. Its a great principle to live your life by, and one that has helped me life a far less stressful life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the default answer. Whos to say the club wouldn't exist ? Chansiri has even said it with his own mouth that the fans money doesn't put a dent in proceedings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lost Hillsborough once DC mortgaged it, am i happy about that no, but what in effect can fans do, apart from continual sufferance watching Wednesday. No doubt us fans will get the blame for the clubs failings, we are the ones who are always the victims of owners whims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't about anyone burying their heads in the sand. If you want the club to be sold to a new owner do you think thousands of fans deciding not to go anymore would make the club a more attractive prospect to buy? Do you think it would encourage the current owner to set a realistic purchase price? Fans in the main do not buy season tickets and go to Hillsborough every home game to support the owner, they go to support their football team, as many have done through generations under multiple different owners.

So nobody else at the club, the COO, the finance director etc. is available for comment on a multi-million pound payment that is now listed as overdue? If not then state that is the case.

They are probably not privy to the information but you can only ask. If the ownership of the stadium, the place where they work, changes hands then you would expect the COO and the finance director to be informed. If the ownership of the place where I work changes hands then those involved are duty bound to inform the employees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the ownership of the company you worked for changed hands I’d agree, if the building they rent changed hands maybe not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
