the highest earners in the football club were the players and sometimes the manager.
Under our current owners this has apparently changed - these days much money goes to those in the Boardroom.
Nothing wrong with that? - of course not - provided the result is a successful football Club and a successful team.
As a business owner for most of my life I have no problem with those in the Boardroom reaping the rewards of their labour
BUT when a company is not producing the results (even to be in the lower reaches of their league and losing masses of money) then questions have to be asked.
After all, money paid to Directors and Managers could surely be paid to the workers who get results for the Company - in the case of football clubs (and the GAS in particular)
it is obvious we need a striker and I have no doubt the likes of Denis Dunford, Nick Higgs, Geoffrey Dunford, Douglas Mears- Milne, Vernon Stokes and the many more like
them who, at most, took minimal expenses would have found one and would be dismayed that self interest appears to come before the current team needs.
Am I wrong? no doubt Wael Al-Qadi will have the answers ( and the figures). And hopefully the solution to avoid relegation??
I do hope so.

Your ramblings make as much sense as Paul Tisdales team selections. We all know you long for the halcyon days of Twerton and the first years at the mem when the PC and SC had the ear of the then owners, but times have changed and so have the staff. Some of you lot cried and bitched when Nick was in charge that we needed a CEO of some kind. Well we have one now, so whats your bitch now?

He certainly knew what he was doing!

Given you claim to be in the know, then how much is our playing budget for the 43(?) players now on the books and how close are we to the £2.5m wage cap? Plus which board member is earning more than KB's rumoured £4.5K a week salary?

I’ve read some nonsense on here recently but this really tops the lot. Have you seen an in depth breakdown of the finances of the club to prove that most of the money goes to the wages of those who occupy the board room? Of course you haven’t. All these directors you list, none of them have put anything like the sort of money into the club as what Wael committed over the summer. So to claim that him and other board members are acting in their own self interest whilst not giving Tisdale the money to buy a striker is frankly ludicrous.

So there's loads of money to be made from L1 football? That'll explain why Dunford and Higgs walked away. Perhaps Fanatical could explain how this money is being siphoned off? As far as I can see Wael has put more money in than taken out.

I'm not going to make out that I've never questioned wael as a owner to our beloved club but I don't think the fact that we haven't got this player or that player of quality has anything to do with him not backing or giving the manager/manager's that we've had since hes been in full control. Hes backed every manager with funds and will continue to do so with just a week left of this transfer window plus what hes invested in the new training ground is far more than any previous chairman to note. His loyalty has shone through over this troubled past year (not just football but from his personal family matter) and looking at other clubs who are run by business owners that probably aren't able to run their own independent firms which will ultimately mean a lack of funds for their respective clubs we have fortunately a owner that has a business in bank financing which will continue to do well in these dark times and the fact we are still developing off the field when most clubs are worrying if they will still have a club in a years time I think we have to be very positive and grateful for what wael is doing with our football club.

Then again we lost JCH a Peterborough, with a lower average home gate than us, as were prepared to offer him a far bigger salary and replaced him with a youngster from Gillingham? I sense we have tried to cut the wages of the big earners although whether the money is now paying for all the youngsters like Liddle to sit in the stands is the big unknown. Although the same posters demanding we now pay a top striker £x's are the same ones asking why we're running up massive losses and we should start living with in our means.

I’m not questioning his love for the club but as a owner wael is clearly out of his depth. To make widdrington (who is jointly responsible for the make up of this squad) a seat on the board is an outrage. I have zero faith in Starnes, widdrington and wael. And unfortunately they spearhead the club

Would you like to tell everyone about your resignation last week? You often complain about low blows but nothing will compare with your effort last week It’s time for your fellow moderators to recognise what a toxic influence you are

Unless there is some kind of evidence to back these claims up - doesn’t have to be actual figures but something that helps show or explain how and why this could be the case, some logic at least then I call this a complete fabrication to again bash the board cos this person doesn’t like them (why I have no idea - maybe if they explained or said why, they might get shown some empathy).... This is a pure made up set of statements.....
