Really hope we don't start with PP and his donkeys PP is the least of our worries, it will be hard getting a full team out if this drags on and we lose our best youngsters.

Moderators Casino Posted May 21, 2019 Moderators Share Posted May 21, 2019 Might be shit but it's also not unexpected If they are lucky, new owners will be able to keep them all on and maybe even pay some of their lost pay Its definitely not for the administrator to be paying any more than they have to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIGBW Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 From what I understand, this means that the staff can be paid by the government. I think the government pays the staff from the point that they're not paid until the point that the business goes into admin. I might be wrong though. If true, it's good news for the staff. But it's still mental that the taxpayer will pay for Ken Anderson's inability to manage his own affairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will not get a bean in reality for the wages they have accrued and not been paid sadly. So they should have withdrawn labour and or found other employment but that’s easier said than done and also I guess a lot of them are supporters of the club and didn’t want to walk out very sad story and I hope all of them find new better employment soon if that’s the path they choose.

As it happens, the game got called off anyway by the league following the playing staff strike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderlust Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 To me it makes sense to keep catering and other add-ons in house providing it's managed well and even more sense if the empty seats are filled, especially with kids who are the fan base of the future when we're all dead. Always been an advocate of "kids for a quid" and schools & community liaison etc because they all want food. drink and maybe the occasional shirt or replica Wanderers v AC Milan coffee mug. Tying in with education and apprenticeship programmes would be a winner. Only downside is that bigger crowds may incur additional policing costs but all that can be negotiated if the management have a brain. And if you can show that it's a proper family club policing bills can be negotiated down. Changing the fan profile and keeping profits in house has been a massive success in other sports and in other countries e.g American Football where you have a captive audience who need feeding for 3 hours or more. Community family friendly club with free/cheap tickets for target markets is the way forward to sustainability I reckon - providing there's some top notch retail management in place. There's so much more that can be done eg a half time show of local talent who would be delighted for the opportunity to perform and bring their families/friends/fans along - just needs a bit of creativity to boost profits. Macron is supposed to be a community facility. Why not make it one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
