Is it an administration error or are the club really skint?

The fact that Wyness has been suspended tends to hint that it is down to him so maybe an embarrassing cock up. I hope anyway so as the alternatives are far more worrying.

I've heard one explanation that Wyness has been gone a while and that this may have created the oversight. But there still should be staff in place to avoid that. And either way it suggests Plan B is a load of rubbish

If he'd gone why would we issue a statement saying he's been suspended?

Wyness I think like Bruce was fully in the shit or bust approach of promotion this year with a ramped up wage bill that we could afford if promoted but not if we weren’t.

The idea of just two plans was ridiculous; there should be a plan with a number of routes based on changing variables.

Did anyone see him at Wembley come to think of it? Footage of Tony there and in play off home leg but no sign of Keith.

WTF. Tell me that's a wind up?

We'll be wound-up if we don't pay asap.
The club will be placed in Administration before that happens.

Doesn't that come with a points deductions and transfer embargo

It's what happened to Luton Town and they ended up in the conference for almost a decade

If he is already gone how can they suspend him?

Luton were done for financial irregularities going back years which is why they were docked 30 points.

Don't be. At least no more than you were a few hours ago.

Normally it's a heavy fine and a possible director level warning for one late payment - only a massive tax breach would lead to a winding up order.

You have to be more worried by this. Even the best case scenario is that we're incompetently run and have no viable plan for the situation we're in.

Yes he was there on the footage when Fulham lifted the trophy.

I didn't notice if he was sweating profusely...seems the rumours of him being sacked have some credibility. Shambolic and rather concerning to say the least.
