Interesting story on SSN that Oldham players haven't had anything but their furlough for the past 4 months (all clubs were contractually obliged to top up the other 20%) and in fact wages were not paid on time for any month from January onwards.
Yep, that was the independent commissions recommendation and with the potential for it to be paid back to us on production of a satisfactory business plan. Whether that was produced or not is another question, but it appears the recent additions to the clubs SLT and moving Alkadhi away from the...
And again here is the misunderstanding of us not having any "fackin' money". The budget for our squad will be lowest in the league and within what we can afford. The issue is the owner made the decision to pay people late. It's not because we couldn't afford to, he just chose not to so he could...
Not signed a single player. Only arranged our first pre-season friendly in the last couple of days. We put everything on hold whilst we put together a business plan for the EFL as requested for end of July.
The problem is the chairman/investor hasn't gone - he's merely been removed from the chairman role but continues as majority share holder. All due respect i'd rather not be playing Alty, much prefer the likes of Port Vale, Bradford, Bolton etc
Also don't forget not all our points deductions were for late payment of wages, some were for failing to fulfil fixtures. However Bolton who did the same spanning two seasons, didn't get a deduction. Not a slant at Bolton just another example of why this feels very much like a witch hunt.
Apathy for me. I just don't see how we survive this with the upcoming HMRC hearing. No interest in a phoenix club for me. Most likely done with club football and go back to sporadic England travel. Thanks Amar, this is what you've reduced me to. No club, no interest in English league football...
Stevenag can point to 96 all they want, we had the same fate the year before - even though Chester had previously used the Moss for football league matches. So in all honesty there has been a long standing dislike for Macc.
Hard to say much right now. Can't see the National League taking us in...
We have to hope that the independent commission see it that way also and have some decency in not allowing the EFL just to "get what they want". We've committed crimes, for which we've been punished (more than we should have due to PPG). I do still think that there is this misconception that we...
