Edwards and Hayman were there today. If they dare to show their ugly mugs tomorrow I hope they get what they deserve. The sooner they slink off the better. Hayman has a lot to answer for and in time I will make sure everything comes out so people can clearly see the type of person she really is.
Both still working 'voluntarily'....
They've updated the FAQ section on the club website to confirm this
Just making the point that now Osborne has been drummed out of the club and that has been heartily approved by some, that the salaries need paying next week or admin beckons.
WBW, how do you know today’s extra 2000 odd supporters won’t be enough to pay the wages? Do you know the ins and outs, especially with Johnson, Hanson, Edwards etc now off the bill?
2000 x £10 = £20,000 extra.
2000 x £15 = £30,000 extra.
2000 x £20 = £40,000 extra.
If this income buys us another week of time, then it’s precious money I’m grateful for.

Sorry mate, but you really are clueless if you think any of those amounts will even get close to covering a month's wages at a full time professional football club.
And you really think that the people you mention will not get paid?

Johnson's last day of employment was Thursday, he left by mutual agreement , he wasn't sacked. His contract was most certainly up in May whatever.
Like I said, if that money gives us another week, it's beneficial. By your £100j, it has just given us at least a week more to find help. Players will except being paid weekly if it means they get paid

Calling someone clueless is not constructive.
Do you have any reliable data to support your contention?
If you do, please do share it.
That would be constructive.
According to the 2022 accounts the club had an average of 54 employees in the year (up from 47 the year before). I assume this includes all players including any contracted youth players, management, directors, physio and admin/back office folks.
£100k a month (if this number is intended to reflect gross salaries for all employees, ex. NIC) would imply an average salary of £24k per employee.
Obviously some would be on much more and many on less, so it is really hard to judge, but this feels a little on the high side to me given the number of junior players and part time employees included within that number.
