Was in the big room after the game and the phrase that kept getting said was we had a bad week behind the scenes but there was a silver lining because the group of lads that’s left are willing to play for each other and you can tell this on the field it’s a shame the lads did not want to play for each other during the season it’s took something drastic for us to stand together. Just get to end of season and hopefully win silverware and then evaluate our situation then
We will not be evaluating anything come the end of the season, by that time I would hope we all know what fate awaits us in 2019, barring any 'Angel' with bigger pockets than sense turning up the future is not looking to rosy.
Before I am accused of being a doom and gloom merchant look at the facts, Our owner and main benefactor has found the situation untenable in so much that he cannot afford to bankroll the club any longer, the central funding we will be awarded will hardly pay the salaries of those still contracted within the club should they hold out for their contracts to be honoured saving voluntarily leaving, will other clubs give them jobs out of season, doubt it, they like all of us have to live. Could we even pay the rent for playing out of the LSV?
Question, Is administration even an option, what assests are tangable enough that the club owns for an appointed officer to satsfy any creditors? That being the case without Derek or some other financier is liquidation i.e. the winding up of the company the only other option open, whereby we would have no club, no players, no staff, no home or ground, nothing. Could someone with a broader knowledge of these situations please clarify and quantify these two options, and any other pathways or solutions available to the club.
What I really want is statement from the players when this comes to a head one way or another about what really went on in those first couple of months of this season, was there an underlying message in their collective performances or where they just not good enough?
