Jeez that's awful. So sorry mateAnd we make history!
Game called off by EFL due to players boycotting match!
League expulsion here we come at thIs rate!
Outrageous!
Unfortunately it’s been coming. The antics of the “owner” defy belief. We are the laughing stock of football and I’ll be amazed if anyone ever trusts us again.Jeez that's awful. So sorry mate
So..
Now, unless the players are paid, they are refusing to play the last two games of the season.
The takeover isn’t yet done so the new bloke can’t pay them...and the old owner won’t pay them!
Utter shambles again!.
Doidge seems to have settled back into league 2 life after his 'escape' from the shambles at Bolton.Unfortunately it’s been coming. The antics of the “owner” defy belief. We are the laughing stock of football and I’ll be amazed if anyone ever trusts us again.
Yes and I’m pleased he has.Doidge seems to have settled back into league 2 life after his 'escape' from the shambles at Bolton.
How have things got so bad at Bolton so quickly? We used to think of it as a well run club. I have been to a few Arsenal away games there. One particular memory is of a wonder goal by Anelka. I felt privileged to see it live. My family weren't as in awe of it as me though because they were the 'real gooners' and it was shortly after he joined Bolton lol.Yes and I’m pleased he has.
Treated disgracefully with us although, sadly, that’s down to our owner. He was just finding his feet in the Championship.
New owner came in three years ago. Did some dodgy deals and took out some dubious loans. Never had the money to run us properly and sounds like he hoped to make @ quick buck from us.How have things got so bad at Bolton so quickly? We used to think of it as a well run club.

How can he demand that he stays on as director? That's crazy. Are you behind the players in this? I know they deserve to be paid, but would just 2 more games unpaid really hurt them? Their argument is with the old owner but they are hurting the club the fans and the new owner by not playing. I'm not sure I would be too pleased if this happened at Arsenal, FGR, or dare I say it....Leeds.New owner came in three years ago. Did some dodgy deals and took out some dubious loans.

Now he’s abdicated his responsibilities and, despite still being the owner, he won’t pay the players as that’s not his problem he says as that duty should fall to new owner.
Trouble is that he wont give new owner the paperwork unless he can stay on as a director which nobody wants, especially the fans so there’s a bit of blackmail going on and a resolution looks very far away.
Players due to be paid on Tuesday but since they've not had March pay it looks unlikely that will happen and one player has formally handed in his notice to leave which they can all legally do now.
EFL worse than useless and totally unhelpful. Now say we must play games so, possibly, unless things sorted, it will be our under 18 team against Brentford and Forest.
It’s been a dreadful season and, honestly, I’d take administration and a 12 point deduction now to avoid more bad news.
Players still have bills to pay and playing is no guarantee they’ll get paid ever at this rate.How can he demand that he stays on as director? That's crazy. Are you behind the players in this?

Three all yesterday, but with Cardiff losing that ensures we stay upI think you're probably right, but you never know with Saints. South Coast derby with Bournemouth this weekend.
Yes, I think I'm 50/50 too. I don't suppose the players are the only members of staff who haven't been paid though and I guess the others still have mortgages and bills too. Yes that would be so easy for the EFL just to pay up for now, but when has anything in football ever been sensible or easy? I hope it all gets sorted soon.Players still have bills to pay and playing is no guarantee they’ll get paid ever at this rate.
Of course the EFL could step in, pay the players and then deduct those payments from the money the club receives at seasons end from the EFL...but that’s too simple.
I’m 50/50. I say that because the performances have been dire all season so even when being paid they didn’t perform any better and they’ve disappointed the fans way too often this season. And I feel for the Brentford team and fans who travelled up. But the situation as a whole has dragged on all season and this is now the third time they’ve not been paid on time so, unfortunately, someone had to make a stand.
Congratulations Sheffield Utd. Premiership team next season. Well done lads.
Leeds have to make do with the play off's.
