It's been peddling the same story with a slight different spin all season.

If it is us, I really can't see it playing out well unless we get a major investor or someone buys the club. No offence to Green but he doesn't have the cash to pile in.

Re: No one has been paid today : Wed Oct 05, 2016 7:42 pm  

do they mean only 40% of the players got paid or they all got 40% of their wages? All rumours about us have involved late payments, rather than partial payments.

Well if they keep saying th same thing all the time, it will probably look to come true when something similar actually happens. I imagine that it isn't necessarily based upon inside information.

They do this with almost every one of these weekly articles, come out with some sensational claim but never back it up with facts or names. It's similar to what Gledhill does with his cryptic tweets, except he gets criticised for it and LRL get lauded.

One or two of the people behind the site also criticise other sites on Twitter for clickbait and yet they do exactly the same themselves. Total hypocrites.

As they dare not name any club, then it is just arsewash.

I heard on Sunday only 25 of the playing staff, no idea how manys still on the books, had been paid so maybe that's the 40%

Not if my maths is anything to go by.

We may have done some deals to release players early. At least I'd hope so since we had about 45 on the books this season.

Take Gaskell, if his hamstring needs treatment it'd make sense to have a word with Hudders and ask them to take him on early so they can choose who does the treatment and manage his recovery during the off season. Getting him off our wage bill early would certainly help. They'd also ensure they got him ready for pre season with them.
