Absolutely correct with that . Our sponsors/advertisers group have submitted a 4-page summary to National League chiefs setting out exactly what has been happening at the club in respect of the unpaid wages to staff . We have asked them to take swift remedial action against the club . The letter has been with them for a number of weeks and as yet we have not received a formal reply . It could be they were waiting to see the outcome of the winding- up petition . I will get back to you when we do get that reply .
I’ve read this post several times now & I appreciate this reply will seem combative, but they’re genuine questions that I cannot for the life of me, work out.
1. You have repeatedly given the impression you are - either directly or indirectly - associated with a sponsor of this football club, but when you’ve been asked to reveal who that is, you’ve refused. An anonymous sponsor always seems odd to me. I’d have thought someone paying for sponsorship would normally want their name/business to be highlighted. Strange.
2. You’re admittedly pushing to hurt the football club. Not the man behind it. They are two separate entities. The worst case scenario is that the club gets dragged over the coals, making the current plight even more unmanageable and eventually leads to it folding. You do realise that Ron would still win (and impressively more so) in that situation, because he would still hold all the land. The fans, as always, would be the ones who suffer, along with people - like sponsors for example - who’ll have lost money investing in the club
3. What will you/your associates gain from Ron/The Club suffering? If, as you claim, you are a sponsor, then as long as you’re paid your money and on time, what right do you have to suggest how he runs his business? Let alone seek out formal routes of having it sanctioned and punished. If you are a sponsor and you haven’t been paid, you have my sympathies & I’d suggest the legal route for reclaiming monies owed would be the way forward, not chasing a Football Division and asking them to do something, when It’s not their job to.
4. If you’re complaining to the League because of the abhorrent treatment of Blues Staff, then why not just pull your sponsorship? Surely that would have bigger and wider reaching repercussions? If it’s not possible, why not just walk away and be done with it when the contract ends?
Lastly, I think I have asked you before, but I don’t think you ever answered me, so apologies if I missed it… Have you or any of your associates, either directly or indirectly, campaigned against the FF development, on the basis that it didn’t contain enough affordable housing?
