I give up

So lets pretend I am wrong and it was the Sun who contacted Burrow, it makes no difference, a man in his position should not be peddling tittle tattle with the press before he has the facts from both sides. Just because a paper rings him does not mean he has to give them a one sided tale, he is allowed to say to the paper I do not have all the facts, when I have spoken to the club I will be able to give you full details. He has caused damage to the club with his unprofessional behaviour.

You may as well just give up, you have more chance of winning the lottery every Wednesday and Saturday for the rest of your life, than making some people understand your point.

Good point - all you Trin fans - get out and buy a Euro Millions ticket or 20!

What is quite common practice in these circumstances is that the employer will say to their staff that they are sorry there has been a mixup/confusion/cockup and that they will end up being paid a couple of days late. They quite often then say that if they are affected by late charges etc... that they would be willing to deal with those for the individual if they are given proof. That way the individual isn't out of pocket in the long run. None of us on here, that I know of, are in the employ of WTWRLFC so we do not know the details of what was said to them. I know for a thing that when companies don't pay on time it looks bad for them, and when staff are public in their criticism about their company, it also looks bad on them too. See the flak that Chris Moyles got when he criticised his employers.

There needs to be a certain realism about scenarios like this, and as fans we are not going to be privvy to all the details, not now with our current financial situation, not if we had tens of millions sat in the bank either.

A bit like the usual bodies that come on here to moan about the club and post.

I'll expect something like............. oh you've already done it.


So they have been payed then this whole saga's a farce but what you can gain from rants on here is a mystery and at least the defender gets of his booty and "does what he can" unlike some people.

I would have to agree with this, at times TRB's becoming public enemy No1 and it should not be happening but in all fairness you can't fault him for it.

he may think hes doing right but in my eyes it should be james or di or ted who says something, hes a fan not the clubs bloody spokesman

Oh i don't disagree but they won't, it seems.

Those people won't post on here and IMO nor should they, but we all see it differently.

I agree that they shouldn't post on here, and I agree that, at times, the info is quite slow through the official channels, but I think there are good reasons at times why I can make some comment, which is based on the official position, without it being a fully-fledged club statement.

We are trying to do something to improve these issues - so that all the supporters are better informed on matters, but in truth, it can never be the complete picture when someone is trying to run a business.

I'll just keep trying to help, but as far as this week goes, it has been frustrating. There are reasons for the hold-ups, and at times these have literally run from one day to another, resulting in it being difficult to keep all informed of progress. It is all now resolved and everyone can fix their focus on the next issue, the 22nd October, the results of which will make this weeks events seem small time!

There are only about 20/30 people that regularly contribute on WTW forum, what right have we to know something before other people?

The receptionist was not a temp. She was employed, in the main through the classroom (WMDC and Govt funds) that is not running anymore, no classroom, no receptionist. Probably why Geoff could not get through.

Geoff IMO was simply doing his job as a Union Rep, defending his clients, no evidence it was him that contacted the Sun, it was probably a player who was upset. and then GMB would be contacted. Just a presumption.
