I wouldn't read too much into what Sammutt says in his tweet, to be honest. Whilst I'm sure he's better place to pick up RL gossip than I am, he doesn't exactly come over as the sharpest knife in the drawer, though, that said, tweets rarely do, tbh.

Still not even sure that the club is actually at the heart of what's going on. The major problem seems to be Marc's security firm, with the Bulls being involved as an associate company. I guess this could still mean problems for the club, of course, if Marc is forced to make payments he doesn't have. Maybe he'd have to sell, and maybe to someone we'd not be too happy about. Everything on the public face is still going on as normal of course, so there's nothing to bother about...

I'm more relaxed about things this month. From what I hear so are the staff. I've no idea what's going on as regards takeovers/people coming onto the board but I think we're ok at the moment at least.

...cue reports of unpaid wages now.

I take comfort in that. If you say it's ok then I'm inclined to believe it. Let's wade past the rapids of speculation and cling to the life-raft of Bullseye.

Well, yeah, I'm happy to admit to taking succour wherever I can find it, but with 'high end' staff leaving at a similar rate of knots to that when CC left, despite the protestations, you do have to wonder what the hell is going on.

Well isn't today payday? It's the last day of the month so if it's not today then it would have been over the last couple of days?

I'm sure if wages weren't in this morning it would be all over social media by now.

Has anyone checked with Mick? He's sure to know

I was more intrigued by the tweet form Chris Irvine some days ago about respecting an embargo on a story coming out of Odsal etc...

There hasn't been any development since then.

It does seem unfair that supporters are always the last to know,but those who gain free entry to the games obtain the information first.

The Robbie story was embargoed so I think he was referring to that.

It hit the newstands on the 29th but was circulated beforehand. I got a copy with the embargo on the 28th.

Gotcha.Cheers.The wording of the tweet did seem a bit doomsday scenario - I shall put it down to being of a nervous disposition,of late.
