Postman Matt Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Been told off a very good personal friend of mine the firm he works who are working on the new stand havent been paid for the last 2 months and his firm isnt the only one chasing payment..... The firm my pal works for is giving the club until Friday to settle what they owe or they are pulling off and they still have what he would say a fair bit of work to do and they have already been on overtime to meet the August deadline...... Makes you feel a little like dog poo when little old Bury are signing strikers and defenders we would welcome into the club like war hero's and we cant meet our bills.... My mate has no reason to lie he isnt that big on football but knows im a MASSIVE blue... Lots of disgruntled workers on site cant be good..... Administration anyone?

yarddog73 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 It does say in the terms and conditions when purchasing new season tickets that you can be moved from stand to stand at the clubs discretion. I'd just like to thank whoever it is whose prime seat I've got in the MSU. NO your not having it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Postman Matt Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) Surely sub contractors are paid by the contractors not the club ?

Dave_Og Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Surely sub contractors are paid by the contractors not the club ? Well yes, but one would imagine the contractor being paid in the first place is quite an important factor!

jimsleftfoot Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I have heard that once the stand is completed, SC is not going to fund the construction of the said stand any further. That may be the reason why the labourer is looking for alternative employment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lags Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Yesterday I completed a work order at one mill belonging to Europe's biggest producer of tissue products.

You do realise it's very difficult to trust your rumours considering how very few (if any) have come to fruition right? Jumping to conclusions about administration doesn't help you're cause either.
