Talk about shooting yourself in the foot. What on earth was Sneyd thinking off.

Let me put it to you this way: WMDC didn't call me brave, valiant or plucky when I didn't pay my rent!

The sooner the bailiffs are round at the AJ Bell, the better!

Who needs a rich owner
when you have a far wealthier donor

Let us not forget the our own council gave us £2m plus they provided the money to buy the ground. The latter was of course a loan and needs to be paid back but I believe they granted us a reasonable length of time before the first payment.

Still got to pay it back though.......

Not the same thing Scarlett.

We aren’t being gifted funds to keep the club afloat and then days later signing additional players. Bit of a smack in the mouth. I wouldn’t be happy if trinity did that.

The money granted to us was specifically tied to community projects, which the club have to report on directly to WMDC.

The money given (on top of the money already loaned and written off), to SRD is for ongoing, day to day, operational costs - costs which they should/could pay for themselves if the weren't spaffing it on players they cannot otherwise afford.

I don't have a problem and don't really know why we would care.
They've agreed a deal with their council and it helps them.

But it doesn't affect us.

Doesn't it?

As an example, in way does their inflated league position not affect us?

Why is it inflated?
They haven't cheated to stay in SL and from now on they are assessed by IMG same as us.

Because if you take £300k of salary out of their team, they wouldn't be finishing anywhere near as high as they do.

They'd be wooden spoon candidates.

Plus Cas and Feath got the same

But they didn't do anything wrong to get that money. They agreed terms with the council, just like we did.
So they don't need to take £300k out.

It's bad business and will bite them one day, but it isn't against any SL rules.

Who mentioned rules?

It's distasteful and immoral.

Using council funding to operate isn't the best look.

Using those funds to then pay big-name players whilst defaulting on a huge portion of your rent is even worse.
