Is that the case, or does it go to running costs?

There must be another pay day fast approaching

To be fair, I’m making assumptions 

If you were a creditor being told your only getting £30k rather than £100k, you’d not be too pleased if next minute £1m is coming in as a transfer fee and you not getting a penny of it, it’s essentially an asset sale. I thought the administrators where here to look after creditors first and foremost 

any-road, this pay day, can’t be much now surely with only 2 / 3 pros left? £100k - £150k a month including non playing staff? You’d like to think the gate receipts could cover that. Then again, you’d think the creditors would have a claim on gate receipts as well I suppose, however you could say they are ongoing business operations, not asset sales.

I doubt 2/3 home games a month would generate much more than £150k after costs.

If we had the time or inclination then we'd surely have a solid case for Charlton tapping him up given that's been his likely destination all summer whilst still under contract.

probably not, the EFL let him leave on a free

they had a contract lined up for him one way or another - either via a fee like Magennis, or via him being allowed to leave because he's contract has not been honoured, like Ameobi

Yes true enough I'd forgotten that he'd won his appeal about his resignation being rejected, though clearly the Magennis situation has at least worked out a bit more profitable for us in comparison.

Twitter gone into a bit of a mini-meltdown over this line in that article "he will be available to play for the Addicks immediately."   when he was supposedly out for a month for us with a knee injury.

I read it as meaning there's no paperwork issues preventing him from being a Charlton player immediately.

A lot of folk were demanding he played last season but I don't think he's been much cop when he has TBH.

A lot of folk; usually younger voices in NSL, used to shout, "Riga, Riga, Riga." In an effort to get him on. He was pretty shit too.

In both Oztumer's and Ameobi's cases, and those of every other player, the contracts work both ways. I'm fairly certain that the payment promised by the club was in return for the skill shown on a football pitch.

Maybe that's why they didn't get paid for half of last season

Which is, quite frankly, arse! What other profession do you not need to deliver the skill you were employed to provide?
