singe Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 One scenario is that the dela is so close that it is just a matter of getting the money sorted. Knowing us, it won't be that though. I know this non payment of wage news broke on Friday, can I clarify have the players (and staff..) still not been paid as of today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightDN123 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 More than likely not paid due to deal so close, So corney trying to save by getting new investors to pay. It's nothing to worry about in the slightest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it will be all sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But during a business transaction, there are lots of little negotiations that the various parties try to gain. For example in this case, Corney is trying to save himself a months wages. Due to the deal going through. It's actually extremely common practise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LightDN123 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 What do you mean ? Corney provided and update just a few months ago. We have 4 of AL's players ? He has been to every game ? Members of the club publicly stated it's still in the process ? Buying a football club is not a simple transaction, buying any business is not a simple transaction, heck buying a house can take months and months. The deposit has been paid, there are fa regulations that need to be done. It's just not something that will happen over night I'm afraid, and people need to realise that. It's not a case of signing a few papers and handing over the money. Nothing's that simple in business Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Rigsby says we've no idea if it is going through. If that is the case then it is perhasp more understandable, but we simply do not know so cannot assume. \ I'm not sure the plan to save a months wages and leave it to the new guy is much of a plan, especially if Simon corney is potentially still involved. It's not possible to say it is nothing to worry about with the known facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al_bro Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I know this sounds like someone who knows someone etc. but take what you will from it. I was at Oldham gym today and one of the lads knows quite a few people at the club. One of them picked up Abdallah from Heathrow for the Blackpool game, and also picked someone else up on the way to Blackpool, but the lad I spoke to couldn't remember who. Abdallah has plans to bring young players to the club. One of them will be the world young player of the year. Abdallah intends to invest in the club this season, and complete a takeover for next season. He is also aiming to get us promoted in his first season. The lad I spoke to is not a Latics fan, but has put money on us getting promoted next season on the strength of what he has heard. Lets hope it happens.

It's nothing to worry about in the slightest This is as daft a comment as I've ever read on this Forum If you're investing in a business, the last thing you want is disgruntled staff Nothing worse than not paying your people as it simply seriously affects their engagement and critically, performance levels If this alleged deal is near to completion, the Chairman would most certainly be paying the players and staff If the alleged investor / purchaser is near to completing the deal, he would most certainly insist the assets he is paying for are paid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
