Well if they haven’t been paid, somebody else has. Its a shit situation but there isn’t enough money to pay everyone. There never has been. We currently don’t have Cardiff City or Uncle Eddie to foot the bill. When ken said he didn’t have the funds to carry the club forward and he required investment he wasn’t lying.

You will have to look really hard to find a supplier who has been paid in the last 2 months. Now it’s the staff. On paper, there is more going out than coming in. In practice, there is more coming in than going out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think someone else could manage the business better so everyone gets paid without any additional investment then that’s great. This is an awful situation and it’s shite it’s come to people not getting paid. I’ve been there myself so know exactly what it’s all about but if there’s no money there’s no money.

Burndens Bogs Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Through a very reliable reliable source, i believe Michael James is in the consortium to buy our club, is he the owner of Home Bargains or summat? Apparently Kens proving to be a bit of a cunt through the negotiations and has been told he won't be welcome at the stadium once the deal is completed. Don't shoot the messenger.

Truth is no one knows the real cash flow of the business. For a business that has no money, KA seems to do rather well out of it. Fees, expenses etc. The real truth will only come out when he’s gone. In the mean time, people can make their own mind up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re basing that assumption on mythical £500k consultancy fee from two seasons ago. The same fee that probably paid DH shares off. If you think Ken is taking money out of the club for himself whilst not paying his staff or contractors due wages then again that’s fair enough but you have no basis.

Think whats looks so fake about it is its so hard to believe Ken could have sent that, its fucking awful, not a sorry or fuck all just you will get paid when I do basically.

He did say no one knows the real cash flow situation. We'll only get to know the reality once this is done; though it does ask questions of his assertion that we'd break even or be in profit. As things are at the moment, he hasn't paid the council, the police, an apprentice list of smaller businesses, HMRC are on his back, he's had run ins with heathcote which seems to rumble on and now staff aren't being paid. We might not be raking it in, but we certainly aren't forking out neither. I hope you're right, and he's genuinely done a fine job, however, with each passing day, I fear he hasn't.
