Breaking News Players not paid for January **Sky Sports News**

[Smiffy]

Just announced on Sky Sports news...

Confirms our fears I guess.

"Financial problems caused Southend to end up in the high court earlier in the week, they staved off a winding up order and have 28 days to pay off an outstanding bill of £200,000. But Sky sources are telling us today that the players haven't been paid for January - They play Tranmere tomorrow, and are without a win in 5" ​

SUFC Players Not Paid For January

Sky Sources on SSN.

Full dialogue:

"Financial problems caused Southend to end up in the high court earlier in this week, they staved off a winding up order and have 28 days to pay off an outstanding bill of £200,000 but Sky Sources telling us today that the players haven't been paid for January - haven't been paid for January. They play Tranmere tomorrow, and are without a win in 5, but have not paid their players for January."

It gives me the opportunity to say it "came from between Natalie Sawyer's lips."

Sadly, it was the bloke who confirmed it, but it's a nice thought nonetheless.

Sky have, more than likely, taken the story from our local press.

Indeed.

She is looking a real talent lately. Is she carrying a bun in the oven? She seems to have that "glow" about her.

Anyway, back on topic.

What the hell is going on. No wonder the players are under performing.

MATTEERRRFAAACCEEE!!!!

I regularly blame Sam Matterface for my troubles.

This time is no different.

Look at the smugness. It makes me want to have sex with his fiance.

 

[Thorpe Groyney]

Back on-topic.

Natalie's stupendous breasts seem to be taking on a life of their own too, which may indicate pregnancyness. She is, however, on the morning shift, and I'd have thought Sky wouldn't run the risk of her throwing up either on air or during ad breaks.

Perhaps she's now just a real sort and put there to keep us watching the same news endlessly. Works for me.

Is this really "breaking" news?

Is this really "breaking" news?

No, but it is now national breaking news I guess.

The thing about that announcement is it doesn't mention anything about the fact that the reason we got a winding up order is because of a dispute about the amount we previously paid! I agree with Ron HMRC are taking the ****!

Waffle ya way out of that one Ron, who's fault this time?

I would like you and chocolate sauce on my waffles

I really do fear the worst. I'm not convined we will be kicking off in August. But you will be able to buy your bread from Sainsbury's at around W block in the West Stand.

 

[EastStandBlue]

Is anybody not the least bit suspicious of the timing of this apparent news story? The players have allegedly not been paid for 2 weeks, yet the story is released just 24 hours before the biggest game of our season?

Enough is enough Ron, lies and ******** have shown you up for what you are, now effecting the loyal people that work for you, time to run along and mess up someone else's future!

The fact that they can't get that bit right undermines the credibility of the rest of the article as far as i'm concerned.

 

[Thorpe Groyney]

By the way, I do take it everybody realises "Sky sources" simply means one of their researchers having a look on here?

I really dont understand the animosity toward the HMRC. RM(along with other chairmen) has been paying the wages and selling tickets, etc but avoiding paying over the Income tax, National insurance and VAT to keep the sinking(or is it stinking) ship afloat. Over three years ago he promised that the club would break even.............we can see now that waffle and promises doesnt pay the bills.
