Farnywhite Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 5 minutes ago, Dr. Feelgood said: Another -4, except they're inches from being defined as 'not able to show they can survive the season'. At which point the EFL's rules say they shouldn't be allowed to start it. The number of promises & guarantees they've given & subsequently not met has moved beyond 'difficulties' to 'downright lies'. Who will trust them now ? We've been there with dishonest owners and it's not nice. Good. Agree and with wages due next week if they can’t sort it all by then can see the EFL start looking at at them not starting the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitesince63 Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 This looks like possibly the beginning of the end for Wigan. Surely given the threats from the EFL a serious owner would have complied with what they promised? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bolty58 Posted May 25, 2023 Members Share Posted May 25, 2023 Heading back to non league. Please. There are enough turds on footpaths without the need for a giant one up the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Feelgood Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Just reading Latiks Speyk. Looks like the penny is dropping for some of them. A bit of a movement to 'just put us in Admin before we go into Liquidation' going on. Though, through it all the Supporters Trust plough on merrily demanding a place on the board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this then followed by proof of funds to complete the season ? Our new website folk better hold fire on the fixture list design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DazBob Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 I don't want them to disappear/be liquidated. A quick and panful descent to non-league will do nicely though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrycowdrill Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Should be on -8 by the end of the day. they pay salaries on a 28 day cycle so have 2 wages due in June. They only finished paying off April last week. Going to get a lot worse before it gets better and I’m all for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrycowdrill Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Players got between a 30-50% increase on their weekly wage with promotion last year. However non of them have a relegation clause that reduces it back 🤣 salaries are higher now than they were in L1 last time around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Feelgood Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 44 minutes ago, Lt. Aldo Raine said: This is the 125% they were instructed to place in February ? They failed to pay salaries on time on 5 occasions last season. They've now got a double-month of salaries for June, plus this long delayed 1.25 of salary. That's 3.25 months worth in the coming weeks but they admit not having a pit to piss in. How can this end well for them ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesince63 Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Exactly Dr F, costs are just stacking up so it seems difficult to see how they can service that now, or whether they even really want to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 I want to play them this year, and batter them twice with 5k of us at their place there to see it and really revel in it like they did at ours. Then they can get relegated and keep going to non-league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
