Occam would say the most obvious explanation is funds are tight, and payments are made on deadlines. It doesn't help fan confidence, and does give a free hit for our enemies.

I should think after the players' debacle at Feathersone, the next payment may be more troublesome. Maybe the squad would donate that week's wages as a small gesture

what happens if they haven't been paid yet? that would explain the Featherstone performance.

This should still never happen though. I've said before that Crown debt is never a surprise and if they're running the business properly then you set out your cashflow months in advance.
We're still on the 15/16 funding, which is paid monthly, so there's no excuse for being in trouble now.

It could be nothing, again, but why be dumb enough to pay late even by one day when this is always going to be the outcome?

No it fscking wouldnt!

And no, I have no interest in anal speculation about what if the players had not been paid, it is an invidious and damaging suggestion, I presume you have NO evidence to back it up, and so I do wonder at your motives.

Well a couple of days ago Green said it things were business as usual.

Before today's crisis obviously. But some comedians would suggest another winding up petition is business as usual.

I agree that this should never happen. This money isn't the clubs to withhold. If it's another late payment cock up then someone needs firing.

I guess we just have to sit back and let things take their course. There's nothing we can do anyway.

I can see Green doing a Reggie Perrin and leaving his stuff behind on a beach in Ibiza if this keeps up.

I have zero knowledge of the Bulls' bank balance but for any business, if on the day you ain't got the money, then you ain't got the money. Been there, done that. Pious reminders that you should have don't really help

so if you are not paid for the work you do, you would be happy to maintain your performance and work for nothing?

Unless you have some evidence that the players were not paid then I suggest you shut the fsck up

agree to everything. we are still getting £68k central funding a month so where is the money to pay HMRC ?

I know this isn't good news but let's refrain from having a go at each other please, even if you think the other person is rude/ignorant/making trouble etc.
