brief history part 2

Counter not moved stuck on 1280

It's not live, only once a week, so it should be updated tomorrow or Wednesday.
With most folk likely to have been paid this week, it would be good to see maybe 2-300 new S/T's sold.

No players sold yet? Positive sign, right?

Yes, but the next month is the harder one, when all the news items are chip paper wrappings, the 'easy' pickings of season ticket sales; foxy bingo takers; the sponsors; the new 1873 contributors are in the main the die hards, then we have to start chipping away at the 'followers.
We are past the nadir and on the upward slope but from now on the slope is seemingly steeper and we must all pull together. All that has happened is that we have got over a hurdle and it gives us a month's grace, but we cannot be complacent we have a much bigger job to do this month, Michael and Chris and their team at WT have the hard yakka to do whilst we can do our 'little bit'.
Tell you what, whatever your views of Ben C and his contribution to the team, his contribution to next season could be even more of a factor if he was sold, the reported £30,000 could significantly help the finances in October (if they pay cash on delivery).

Why do you suggest that KK? Did the club put a deadline for the end of September?

Its on record that Tim Smith was sold to pay that months wages, here we are at the end of the month and no news. Unless another subdtancial income source has ben tapped then I would expect Trinity to be in the same posiion as 30 days ago. I think 4 weeks was given to potential investors to come up with some funds otherwise more player sales could potentially be on the cards.

Ok mate cheers.

On the Updates, the counter is still the same so not a lot to add, but I do think the thread is worth keeping so that we can track it when it does update.

Think it was Thursday last week when the clock updated. Or maybe the sales have dried up already!

The sales counter has not been updated - what difference there will be I don't know.

As for the wages bill - we were ok for September after a lot of hard work by MC and CB. October could be tighter, but keep your diaries cleared for the evening of Wednesday 9th!
