Re: Looks like some bad news

Went back to the Evening Telegraph site to look for any more news and saw that yesterday's article had been updated. This was one of the new sections:

"Mr O’Neill, who became chairman in June, said he was investigating why none of the cash had been paid, despite the club staging a photocall for the handover of a £25,000 cheque towards a monthly installment."


Our (Joint) Chairman is now claiming that he thought the taxman had been paid.

That's as believable as expecting to raise tens of thousands of pounds from mid-season friendlies with 'big clubs' or claiming that the eight-week deadline is "actually good news for the playing side because it means that we can start again from a clean slate earlier than we expected."


For once I agree with Councillor Britcliffe: "If the club wants the public to get behind it and support it then they have to up front and honest about what they are doing."
