Pre-Match Thread HMRC v SUFC - FINAL hearing on 1st March. DISMISSED

[ALW]

What I cannot understand or have seen is how this loan will help in the long term. It will get us through until money is released for the next stage of IT achieving his goal. Is not this money for the construction? Can it be used for day to day running? How does it help the club? £5,000,000 will not see us through to when? we move to FF. Anyone know?

There is also the little question of the winding up petitions against the three Martin Dawn companies. There last filed accounts suggest that they owed the tax man about £2.4M. probably more now.

Mu guess is that the bridging loan is to pay debts across Ron's companies. I do not see all the £5m being for the football club. This does leave a big question about funding for the football club.

The bridging loan is to pay off the clubs tax debts .If that does happen it will give the club the brathing space it needs to get the traning ground under way .Then boots n laces can be bull dozed .The finces will be relesed to start the building of the new stadium .Again its all ifs and buts .

Will there be a Trust Statement or Update following last nights meeting of the various supporters groups?

Think they were paid late last month weren’t they… albeit 1 day?

Groundhog Day.

Anyone that defends the ****ing crook at the top or has the attitude ‘ no point trying coz he won’t sell now ‘ needs to **** off. We should be doing everything in our power as a fan base to get this guy out however slim the chances are . THIS IS OUR CLUB FOR ONCE UNITE PLEASE

 

[GBJ]

Now the players. Wave goodbye to the play-offs.

It really does feel like end game now, doesn’t it?

 

[sufc4life21]

Hear we are..... we have players/staff unpaid. Crumbling stadium. An owner who run out of money and can't secure this bridging loan which was promised months ago. The reality is now starting set in of no more sufc. I can't see a way out for us other than to start again.

 

[BedfordShrimper]

It seems PG Site are confident that Ron will ‘deliver’

 

[Shrimper]

How anyone can be optimistic or still hopeful is beyond me. We're looking done

Even if we are not “done” financially I can’t see us recovering on the pitch this season. Damage has been done there for sure

If the players remain unpaid we can forget worrying about any 'disruption' protests might cause IMO. Gloves are off at that point. 29 days left

 

[LennySUFC]

How much worse does it need to get for protests on a much bigger scale?

We’re ****ed and it’s barely made the national media.

 

[HertfordshireBlue]

The players and staff haven’t been paid.. I refuse to believe there is any rational reason why we shouldn’t protest now.. the players not getting paid will have a far bigger effect on the pitch than supporters protesting.

Unfortunately the next step without action is administration (for the record I have been totally against the protests during match day and 100% getting behind the boys has been the main priority) however it has never been more apparent that we will not have a club with Ron at the top or any team to 100% get behind come next month.

I have been apart of both ‘sides’ with these protests however I firmly deny sitting around whilst good people are not getting paid to support their families during a cost of living crisis, it’s not right and the community need to stand up to Ron’s selfish bullying, in my opinion.
