Some Club Staff Salaries Late/Embargo Chat - now resolved (for now)

[Spaceman Spiff]

But, why would you be a sponsor? Surely you would withdraw that support?

I don’t think he’s a sponsor at all.

 

[sufc58]

Can someone clarify which groups of staff haven't been paid? Is it the groundstaff like last time?

Nearly always groundstaff last to be paid

 

[brigg blue]

Nearly always groundstaff last to be paid

Is there a reason for that, not that it's acceptable btw just wondering if they are on zero hour contracts rather than normal full time contracts

 

[Loan Shark Linda]

Has everyone been paid now?

Another month with wages over 2 weeks late

 

[Smiffy]

Another month with wages over 2 weeks late

An idea of what departments and/or number of people affected would be good please @Jim90

Was July's salary also late?

Very sorry to see this happening continually. Especially in these tough times.

Question is why is this even happening and so regularly?....are we not meant to be supported adequately financially by "group companies" (at least that is what we are always told)........so is this not the case?........if so why not?

If I was constantly being paid late I'd have found a new job by now, if your not getting paid on time why are you still there?

By staying you are enabling the club to be poorly run.

I can confirm this is true, the non-playing staff have been paid late for the last 5/6 months, with no fixed date on when this months payment will be received.

Unfortunately it has become the norm for our hard working staff to be paid late, and something needs to change NOW.

Doesn’t matter if you’re a tea lady or the club captain, everyone should be paid on time.

Sounds to me like it’s broken promise after broken promise and the amazing staff who work ever so hard deserve so much more. Especially during these tough times. Enough is enough now.

Seconded. Sick to death of our club treating people like **** it MUST change.

It will only change when the current owner has no control of the club.

Yep. Sooner rather than later would be nice.

Just one? Join a union, get representation, get Acas involved.

This isn't acceptable and people are bending over letting Ron have his way with them.

Thanks, I now have a terrible image in my head now.

I thought we want a new keeper and the 3 Amigos sacked if we lose on Saturday….. Can’t pay off sacked mangers, the Tax man and staff at the same time.

Someone has to suffer our fools gold attempt to reach the Championship….. Why not innocent staff or some of the unpaid local small businesses and supply services.

Sadly there are an amazing amount of football fans who believe the answer is always a new owner with big pockets and even bigger ideas…. That’s why football has been ruined in the first place.

Cancel your Sky and boycott the WC in Qatar…. If you want to save the beautiful game.

Ron knows where we are...

Another report to me that staff haven’t been paid on time for around 5/6 months, this month is over 2 weeks late as mentioned by others on here just confirming it’s what I’ve been told as well !

Club will be sued if it reaches 6 months of late payment

It's not 6 months late - it's 6 consecutive months of payments being made late (allegedly).
