| When CC, Made that statement you have quoted, MC quoted £280k, now it's £ 480k, it's well known we pre pandemic spent £1.2m
So it's not far of 50℅, - however, if you have heard of a regressive tax sum, that cut of 280k hurts us more than clubs of much higher revenue, so any loss affects us greater !

That is what we spend on players it’s not the full revenue. The 480k will be spread across the entire budget. Does anyone know the clubs annual turn over pre-Covid ie the 2019 season. My guess is around the 2 to 2.5 million mark. In which case it’s approx a 20% cut in revenues. It’s bad but it’s not 50% is it.
Stop with the nonsense hyperbole, how do you think this helps?

| We are uniquely paying for two full time coaches (with only one working at the club) which will be included in our expenditure unless this is now not the case. If so in some respects we could be putting ourselves in a worse financial position than others who are not expending money in such a way.

| I read it that every club will see the same shortfall, but it hits clubs like ours harder due to having a smaller budget to begin with.

Do you know for sure we are still paying for 2 coaches now that the one you refer to has now gained employment, nice little dig btw although some what predictable.

Oh no. That would be terrible. How much are we losing doing that?

You are just full of it. One you’ve been told that it’s coming out of MC’s pocket and two CC now has a job and even to your lame brain that means he will no longer be getting paid by anyone other than Leigh.
So he got paid after his statutory notice approx two month wages, WOW! That is about the cost of two games from a top player, how will we manage.
Now give it a chuffin rest or do us all a favour and go support someone else, maybe Cas (if you don’t already) as they could do with a ray of sunshine like you.

| Quote TrinTrin="TrinTrin"Well, announced by MC, picked up by Google media, wakey, shortfall of £ 480 k, that's 4, or 5 good players we cannot pay for !
So I am in full support of WP, I also feel sorry for him already, he is in a week position, agreed he is aware but that does not change facts of new players & quality players. I will still buy season tickets next season but reality is less players & quality, we are up against it, I will not blame Willie if all goes wrong especially with inevitable injuries !
You can only motivate so far & in so few games, however, up the Trin.'"
I’ve read the comment and I may be wrong but I suspect some of that shortfall is also loan repayments that are now kicking in.
I’m guessing the delay in the East stand which should have been producing it’s first revenue by now isn’t.
I also know we are paying for the 4G pitch ourselves so ditto.
I’m saying this because I can’t find any other quote for 480k, they all seem to be around the 200k mark!
I’m just speculating.

I am glad you didn't teach me maths with your calculations you certainly know how to round up to suit your purpose!

Is that a Royal 'we' from you then as you do is put the knife in if you're not happy there are other clubs to support. You championed Chessie getting replaced now you champion the way it was done. As has been covered before do some reading on contract law and look at other dismissals there is little if any difference just how it's worded.

MC should be admired for the way that he conducts himself and the clubs business.
I've no issue with the "agreement" to pay off Chester, something that only the club and Chester will konw the detail of.
There may be something written into that agreement covering if Chester was to find new employment ?
Plenty of other clubs have got rid of their coaches and they will all be tied by any contract that may be in place.
How many football managers come and go and they wont just walk for free.
