Statement on OS: HMRC paid in full (28th Feb 2023)

Stan and the football department are back in the game happy days

 

[Yer Blues]

Oh no! All that work on a ****ing phoenix club eh?

It will be interesting to see how resilient the club's finances are in the summer months, should you NOT be promoted. That bridging loan is going to take some paying for.

The wording is interesting because it only mentions the money owed under the petition. My guess would be that there would be at least another three or four months (minimum) PAYE due, at least 3 months VAT and it’s very very likely that HMRC will be have agreed to a payment plan unless the current liabilities are paid in full as they became due.

Thanks Ron for saving us again

Yes , but he has been a very naughty boy.

Debt secured to pay off debt.

Now Stan can see what the so called Prem clubs have to offer us

Yes Lenny! We should have just gone ****ing bust instead!

Who gives a **** about 117 years of history!

Debts really unusual in football innit!

 

[Boreham Blue]

I infer from the last line of the statement that they will try and get a few signings. They are really going for this promotion and some much needed reinforcements will be most welcome. A striker specifically. I'm not saying it's right that they do that, but I can see it happening.

The lack of information on this statement is just disrespectful and pathetic really. Screams out spoilt little child who always wants his own way! Thanks a lot for all of the excellent information and update!

 

[Evening Echo]

SOUTHEND United have confirmed their tax bill of close to £2million has now been settled.

Good times ahead.

Now everyone can relax and enjoy the football team they support a little rather than pretending to lawyers/accountants/taxmen/Sherlock Holmes/fire squads.

3-0 Friday with Maher coming up like a testimonial

Exactly the sort of posts I fully expected, very very very naive.

So you don't think it was better to be safe than sorry?

Honestly mate what are you expecting?

Does it say the debts been cleared? Yeah?

Plenty to be unhappy about. A statement a few working hours before closing the doors forever saying hmrc paid is more then sufficient for now.

Personally I'd have used even less words. The statement should have just been:

My concern was always the lack of engagement around it. You know that John.

I think the fans, or at least some that aren't stupid as hell deserve a bit more to be honest. Or doesn't he fancy sharing how many tens of thousands of pounds worth of interest we're stuck paying. I don't like saying this at all but this is a temp solution, we'll be back here again.

 

[JAL]

Well I hope to expect a much more detailed outline soon, not later, soon. We need answers, we now need to know what’s going on with FF, we need to know how we’re going to sustain the future of the club, too many more questions unanswered.

Yes I think we all know this

Noooo, these players have served us magnificently and deserve the chance to play without the constant fear of lack of payment. Their togetherness has been inspirational.

Even if there are better players available I hope we ONLY go for loans to cover injuries.

I am being too 'woke' to feel like this even if it means we miss out in the league?

I am truly conflicted at the moment as to achieving the best results possible and respecting the efforts of the current players.
