    The guy is a fucking idiot and got what he deserved. In a world where social media plays such a part you can be dismissed from work for gross misconduct ‘liking’ idiotic posts is only going to antagon

  • Hi all; been a long time voyeur on the site and a few things I've seen have made me pants twitch.  But as a Wanderer for over 50 years;  reading a lot of the stuff on this thread and in the general pr

  • I saw the truth from the beginning ffs  KA’s job was to balance the books and spin plates till investment came. He’s done that with success so far. It just can’t carry on, we don’t have a Gary Ma

Again I fail to see any logic in walking away. It's the only way ken loses!

Not really as he’s just bagged himself £500k for minding a business for a couple of years.

He obviously wants the jackpot like we all do.

If he is a creditor if we fell into admin then it's worth sticking round? 

He seemed up for joining the potential administration.

im not debating his agenda. Merely that it's in his interests to stick around

Usual arguments and outrage on Twitter about it which is understandable, but if the money's not there it's not there. What are the alternatives right now to avoid paying being delayed to Monday? None.

Not having enough money to pay the rank and file is both seriously poor form and very worrying. I know if the money isn’t there then there’s not a lot that can be done, but KA has a moral obligation to these people to make sure the money is there for them given how much they’ve carried the club for the last few years. 

 

Oh for fucks sake! 

Here we go again

Agreed, and I can't begin to imagine what it'd be like to not have a wage on time going into December (or any time). Just the calls to "sell up and fuck off", it's clearly not as simple as that.

Desperately sad times this club is living through at the moment, crippled at all levels.

This shit about money is keeping people away as much as the football. I’m sick of reading about it. We need putting down as a football club. 

Well Saturday is going to be just lovely isn’t it 

bedsheets will be out 

The soap opera that just keeps on giving!

Think we can safely say PP is going nowhere 

 

If you look at the performance at Wednesday you have to think the players had an inkling that this was going to happen, nothing PP can do to motivate players who continue to be treated like shit.  

There’s no saviours left, no real saleable assets on the playing staff, no one going to buy us.......just can’t see any positive outcome 

 

Iles has once again rushed to get his story out that someone as leaked to him without checking with the club what the story is from their side (that's not me guessing btw, it's what he's wrote in his article!).

Also it seems from what he's wrote that basically it seems everyone is getting paid on Monday instead of Friday!

Seems to me it's more like Iles shit stirring and getting the usual knee jerk reaction from the Anderson lynch mob than any indication of a major financial issue problem brining the club down this weekend.

 

Who the fcuk are these people setting up direct debits the day they get paid?!?!

That’s where I’m at.

it might have been an idea to speak with the club first.

So what was the players excuse for the rest of the crap performance they've put out lately? What can we do sack Ken? Nobody wants to buy us, we have a shit team a shit manager no up and coming young players because the manager has never tried to promote them in two and half years. Looks like we are well and truly fucked!! 

 

 

I’d fuckin piss myself if it all gets paid tomorrow and this is just them playing with iles.

One of the many people at the club will have sent him the email. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t scenario here. If he keeps quiet and it leaks he’s accused of being a club puppet. Write the story and he’s in the wrong for jumping the gun.

I personally suspect there is a lot he could have written since Ken has been here that he hasn’t. For example first game in league one, half the squad weren’t registered at 9am on the day of the game. He could have written that story but didn’t.

They were my initial thoughts, but sadly it seems to have been on the cards and certainly not presented to the staff as just being delayed until Monday.

I wonder who he'll pick as the greedy scapegoat this time around. Janet from marketing? Alan from the ticket office?

Eddie Davies and Madine saved us last year. This year is gonna be a struggle
