They are either all out of a job or he has a new owner, from the silence I fear it's the first.

JW was busy on Fri putting details on company house for some of the businesses he is part of.
Must have been to fatigued after all of that to go ahead with the meeting with the Trust.

Hope he doesn’t work too hard over the weekend he’s talking to the staff on Monday.

If that doesn’t take place he will probably postpone the Trust again.

Maybe he's telling the board first that he has sold the club, or is funding next season before speaking to the Trust?

I very much doubt it mind.

Do you think the Clown is capable of standing in front of a room full of people and telling them that they have lost their jobs? The man has no backbone, he is a coward so I doubt that that is why he is doing it

There is another train of thought, unfortunately it’s not the one I personally want to see, but some do!

That’s for him to admit that he can no longer fund the club or pay off its debts (I take it we have not been paid back the money wrongly paid to [who knows who], so we still owe HRMC that money!!) and he puts the club into administration.

We wait and hopefully we are put out of our misery one way or another.

If there is an offer on the table does the appointed administrator see if a deal can be done? Thou I would take my offer of the table if the club goes into administration.

I just want it over and him and his stupid games gone.

Sad thing is the staff will now be worrying over the weekend to see if they still have jobs

He's certainly not going to tell them in person but he might via a video link.
I thought if he was putting us into administration it would then be up to the administrators whether they hold onto the staff while they try to find a buyer.

You'd hope the club would be putting some information out following this meeting. It has now been 4 weeks since Rod's last Interview and since then we have heard nothing at all, so can only presume that nothing has happened in that time.

Given the Trust are now raising funds I can't be the only one fearing the worse. The Board might well be having sleepless nights but so are the fans.

Questions for JW if it goes ahead.

Who paid the May wages? Where did the money come from?

Who will pay the June wages?

It is the last month of the agreed payment of 125% of wages into a special account, what happens now?

Now the 25% above the amount of money required to pay wages, anyone any idea what happens to that money?

Is there any chance a Morecambe FC gets that money back?

Or does JW get the money?

Must be a reasonable sum now!!

That pot of money is already empty, so that money is long gone.

Oh well, never mind. Am I right on the 125% of wages. That will elevate some pressures!

It was the 125% of wages that I was referring to. That was taken out last year (September?) and never put back. It is long long gone.
