    Ain’t the wage bill about £150k a month?
    Just to pay that, 3,000 fans would have to set up a DD of £50 a month.

    Has this guy just started posting? it seems odd that I’ve not seen him before and even odder that he’s a lot” braver” in his accusations than the Athletic yet supposedly hiding behind them.

    Me?

    1,180 tickets allocated to us.
    Is there an appetite for it this weekend?
    How many have we sold?

    We are hostage to Hilton now, until he sells or the club goes out of existence.
    My principles tell me not to go anymore as he is deliberately not paying people who are owed whilst paying for a team, which on paper, should walk the league. I don’t want to go and cheer that team, but if I don’t, and if lots other people don’t then the money dries up even faster.

    Chicken & Egg?

    The HMRC thing isn’t a big issue they accept anything over a period of time .

    Aslong as they get their money , that’s from a small /medium size business as I had .

    The problem is Hilton has gone daft on the playing budget and then said he won’t pay people – you can’t just not pay people ,

    I don’t get how some fans support that

    Horse & Cart
    You don’t need a Shergar / Frankel to pull a gharry.
    Any old horse will do.
    No cart… no need for a horse.
    Pay all debts first.
    Run a smaller, less costly squad.
    But, ensure that the club survives and that there is somewhere for our John Doe footballers to play.
    Not paying creditors & debts but loading up with ‘over qualified’ players on higher salaries than needed for Level Six is suicide.

    We were hoping that someone would come in and “Heal The Pain”.
    It’s all got “Too Funky” for WHAM and the “Fantasy” has turned in to a “Monkey” on his back.
    We “Cowboys And Angels” are left “Praying For Time” and hoping that a new “Father Figure” comes to our rescue!

    Well someone as been putting money in, for us to last 9 months, I’m betting on the tooth fairy. Could it be all borrowed? I hope so but what could you borrow it against with zero assets , a!I will come out with the washing one would hope.

    Washing you say? Hmm

    Nudge, nudge ;-)

    Worst day in our history?

    Absolutely!
    We won’t win the NLN.
    Not enough passion, fire, desire.
    Not enough winners in the team.
    Not enough leaders.
    Too many happy enough to pick up their wages!

    Absolute goons!

    The ‘commentator’ is far too enthusiastic for the opposition.
    Why no ‘expert’ summariser tonight?

    Exactly!

    It is extremely unlikely that some knight in white armour will come in and save the club.

    Let us be realistic, who would want to take on the debt of this club? With no assets of real value, bills mounting daily, and with no prospect that the club can meet the demands of the creditors we are technically insolvent. Add to that the winding up petition that we received today, and the one that is about to arrive from HMRC, and I suspect even administration will not save us.

    All in all, David White-Hilton-Anderson-Mellors has managed to finish what Swann started. The light that was once a well respected, community club plying their trade in the Football League is about to be extinguished, and there is sweet FA we can do about it!

    A sad day indeed!

    Give a WHAM, give a bam but don’t give a damn!

    Thanks. Oh dear.

    I’ve caught up slightly and seen his statement on the club website now.

    He’s digging in.
    The statement sets off well but he reverts to form.
    Same old.

    Hopefully being an ex-player he’ll have a better understanding of the game from the players point of view.
