I'm sure that Anderson will do everything he can to hide it, but the accounts have to be published sooner or later and although they don't paint the whole picture they give a good idea. The business had a balance sheet of around £45 million when he arrived - we'll see what the newbies are buying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there are issues that i haven't seen to be proven otherwise, like staff wages being paid late or the training ground being shut due to a lack of grub and fuel for the generators. All these little things build up and the negatives far away the positives. In a situation like this, nobody will look at anything over than the negatives and I am not saying he hasn't done any good for the club because I am sure in some capacity he has done some good things, but those positives are completely outweighed by the negatives in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone knows that the club has serious cash flow problems and if the money isn't there to pay the bills and its a juggling act, one example being no money to pay for the fuel. The article that caused outrage about the players having to pay for their own is an example of twisting reporting. Players have always had to pay for their food to avoid the tax implications of it being a taxable benefit. Its a mess, KA is absolutely not a saint but what we should be seeing is balanced reporting so people can judge the situation correctly rather than just taking the view of a few individuals that nailed their colours to the DH, Supporters Trust flag from day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the day the BN ran that story, nobody was due to use the centre until after 6pm, so the gates were indeed locked. However, at 6.30pm that night, players changed in changing rooms that were on lockdown before a game was played there under the floodlights that couldn't be powered due to having no fuel. If in doubt, don't believe the BN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pricey Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 and this is another reason why i enjoy coming to this forum because facts are stated. I get the media has a job to do and will spin any old bullshit, but prior to a few weeks ago, my thought process was built on what was being said in the BN and twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said that if he continued to constantly err on the side of negativity towards the owner and the club in general, that he might find himself getting banned. His response was "That might not be a bad thing" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
