Whitestar Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 We used to know that school as Deane Base. Deane primary school was very near there too and a little shop known as Parkinson's in the 70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MancWanderer Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Pfft!! This place is full of council house peasants Some of us grew up in the leafy suburb of Sharples, had a bath every Sunday, and flushed fresh water after doing our business I was warned about this place you know. I may have to flounce out of here..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What he didn’t realise was that it needed more than a lick of paint and a new toilet (without pull chain), he’s even borrowed money from the old bloke to make the improvements, now the old blokes died he can’t complete the job I too was raised on a Farnworth council estate but it wasn’t rough it was normal Now he can’t pay the workmens wages, bet some people think he’s done good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escobarp Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Were they not frozen by the courts last time due to the winding up petition? Don’t know why this is in my head can’t see why accounts would be frozen preventing salaries being paid as part of any takeover. Never come across it in all my days.

Youri McAnespie Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 So-called 'workmen' take the piss out of normal folk on a daily basis, both in terms of extortionate charges and not turning up etc. I for one say "Here's mud in your eye!" to King Kenneth for returning the favour for once.

gonzo Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 It’s the age old question but what do people ken is actually doing with the players wages? Down the casino or sat fanning himself with them in Monaco? Theres a reason Payment’s are late. There’s always been a reason. Theft isn’t one of them.

bwfcfan5 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Iles really pissing me off this morning. He knew full well that with due diligence under way and a takeover potentially close that wages were not being paid. He knows there is nothing in the coffers and that nobody in their right mind is forking out of their own pockets to pay wages for a business they might have no stake in within a week or two. What an absolute cockend he is. Making out like this is some massive story to cover. I feel sorry for the staff who might not get paid, I really do. But Iles really needs to stop dramatising everything for clicks. He's a local news reporter acting like he's reporting national emergencies for ITN.....

Still unpalatable, of course. Let’s hope he sorts it out in the next day or two. My thoughts are he won’t pay it and is relying on the takeover going through. What happens if takeover fails through? That might be a big big problem as I can’t see his what his fall back plan will be. Edited February 28, 2019 by Mounts Kipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats all the Bolton News (and they are not alone) cares about- the story as they see it all the better with a sensationalist angle to it. Often is a non story dressed up as a major one. I used to have to deal with Bolton News 'enquiries' in my job but soon realised most of the time they already have the story written and will bend whatever you say to suit their narrative. The standard of journalism tho at Bolton News now just makes them look so amatuer so iles fits right in. Cant even get place names and locations in Bolton right.

I strongly suspect that the problem with the Beeno pre-dated the arrival of Marc Iles. Can anyone tell me when he arrived on the scene and why Garty banned him?

I'd say so, it's still his club It wouldn't surprise me if the next stumbling block comes because he's told the new buyers to pay this month's wages the sooner this fucking saga ends, the better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that is the bottom line now. 20th March - court date - if deal not done by then.... Either way I don't see him putting his own money in now.
