Sol Campbell owed 180k...

Macclesfield owe Sol 180k...

It's no wonder Sol opted for the strong and stable option of Southend.

Not surprised he voted to wind up Macclesfield, i also would if my ex employer still owed me £182,000.

I wonder if Sol has taken the sauces from Boots and Laces as collateral?

Once bitten etc.

I don't read the nerdy threads.

How the hell do they come out with £180 k ?

 

[mattitouk]

That's a good question, I've know idea how they came to that figure also.... maybe added up to un-paid wages + win bonuses? + avoiding relegation bonus in his contract?

Edit:.. From this bbc article, it looks like thats the amount they owe HMRC?

All very confusing.

Just found this on the Macca fans forum.

"What a joke.

The club took out a £180k loan in June to pay off Sol (to be repaid out of the EFL payment) and it hasn't happened.

We are heading into administration, whatever you read about "banking transaction problems".


Sol Campbell saved Macclesfield from relegation last season

Barrister Philip Currie, who represented Campbell, said Macclesfield owed his client about £182,000. He said Campbell also wanted the club to be wound up.

Campbell was appointed by Macclesfield in November 2018 but left by mutual consent in August of this year. He took over at Southend – also the subject of a winding-up petition on Wednesday – in October.

Maybe the costs include his legal fees to "Phillip Currie" for going to court to regain lost wages.?

Yeah i read that one, but it was a bit wishy washy. Hence me going to the fans forum site for more detail.

I am sorry to be cynical, but if Macc get thrown out the league will it be only two teams down from L1 this season?

Yes, us and MK Dons.

Is that definitely how it will work though ?

No, I don't think so. It will be just one relegation from L2.

 

[Murkey_Mouse]

With Bury got thrown out, there will be no relegation from League 2.

I think it is very poor of him wanting Macclesfield winded up, what about the loyal fans and people behind the scenes who’ve been there for years. As everyone knows Bury have already gone he wants another, even though he’s owed money I should imagine he’s well off. If in the future if we are in the same situation as Macclesfield remember he will want our club to be finished and out the football league. Always thought football family didnt apply to the premiership and its players, case proven. Just my personal opinion .

 

[kentblues]

If he don't threaten it there is zero chance you will ever see your money unfortunately

 

[AndyT]

Yes, us and MK Dons.

.. Quality!

 

[Blueronron]

I read somewhere he was trying to sue Portsmouth for 1.7 million as well when you was playing there but sorted out before it came to court
Bet Ron is looking over his shoulder!!

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

Good for him, entering a contract lightly is not something to do and Sol is obviously a serious man.
