Most of the players they have kept are not on much money either. But yes, those who work behind the scenes will be really struggling with not knowing when they will be able to pay rent/mortgages to keep a roof over their heads without everything else that needs to be paid.The players are one thing, but the non playing staff will need their wages much more urgently and missed payments will hit them harder.
I didn't say they haven't paid for the police. What I said is it won't be easy to cover the whole perimeter of the ground. It would take a lot more manpower than normal to have a chance of stopping them going onto the pitch. Police officers are a very limited resource these days. Extra security with stewards to cover it? Then once they start getting onto the pitch their role then becomes trying to remove those on the pitch making it easier for the rest to get on.No evidence they haven't paid the police, they have to be able to pay police to host matches.

Not many people see them having a chance of staying up so it may not make much difference. Live in front of the Sky cameras could be too tempting whatever happens in the game.Wonder if they will do it if they're winning? Hopefully we bag a last minute winner so they don't have time and the ref just blows
I know its the responsibility of the owner and the business itself to pay their staff but given how much money is in the game and how often this situation occurs can the FA & EFL not have a fund that ensures non-playing staff get paid, or at least a no interest loan against outstanding wages, in situations like this.I didn't say they haven't paid for the police.

Reading did it last season and the game was replayed. I don’t see any chance of us getting a free 3 points.So long as we don't join the protest on the pitch, we should get awarded the points.
If both sets of fans take part it will probably be replayed behind closed doors.
The score was 0-0 and only 15 minutes played. If we’re 3-0 up with 10 minutes left, different story.Reading did it last season and the game was replayed. I don’t see any chance of us getting a free 3 points.
They have the capability but they didn't give Bury much help. They set the rules and expect clubs to keep to them.I know its the responsibility of the owner and the business itself to pay their staff but given how much money is in the game and how often this situation occurs can the FA & EFL not have a fund that ensures non-playing staff get paid, or at least a no interest loan against outstanding wages, in situations like this.
If it’s gonna happen it will be first half I think.The score was 0-0 and only 15 minutes played. If we’re 3-0 up with 10 minutes left, different story.
I'm sure the only person Holding the club together at this point is Barry Bannan
It is a farce to be honest - Been highly critical of them since the Palmer incident, sometimes justifiably so but what is happening isn't right and I take no joy or satisfaction in seeing the office ladies, people in the club shop etc. not being paid on time and I would say that about any employee of any football club in the countryI'm sure the only person Holding the club together at this point is Barry Bannan
I think it depends entirely on the situation. 10mins played and 0-0. 100% will be replayed. 80 mins gone and were 4-0 up? Might be a different story.Reading did it last season and the game was replayed. I don’t see any chance of us getting a free 3 points.
no, even they aren't stupid enough to do thatSome fans are very silly.
Away players much more likely to be targeted for any "silliness" than home players.

There's been a few instances over the last few years of someone going onto the pitch during the game to attack a player. That's one person by themself being watched by everyone else and they know they will be caught. What's to say there's not a few idiots that would take the chance if lots go on the pitch at the same time.no, even they aren't stupid enough to do that
attack an away player and it becomes about that and not what they want to highlight
Misguided or due a big bonus when it's convenient!Yeah fair play to him. Arguably could've gone elsewhere but has stuck around to try and drag them up himself. Props.
He will have his limits if he continues being paid late though.Yeah fair play to him. Arguably could've gone elsewhere but has stuck around to try and drag them up himself. Props.
It's probably a deliberate ploy of his.He will have his limits if he continues being paid late though.
Sorry, what do you mean?It's probably a deliberate ploy of his.
Brow beat the EFL on standards there's usually a modus operandi behind it.
Well by your own logic, Wednesday haven't recently been in the PL. In fact, they've recently been in L1, which would mean even less followers from outside the city/fanbase? So the fact they've still got nearly 400k followers having not collected the PL following says it all. They theoretically, in a city as big as Sheffield, can hold a lot more woodwork supporters.Clubs that have been in the PL in recent years have significantly more followers than us so clearly they are not just followed by their own fans.
Example:
Southampton 1.5M
Coventry 205K
Similar size cities, one club, almost identical average attendance.
Southampton do not have 7.5 times more fans than us.
Reading also did this against us in 21/22 (it was a bit half cocked tbh)Looks like the Sheffield fans are organising an on the pitch protest when we play them due to it being on Sky. (looks like its only on sky+)
As a club who has been through it all with owners. I have sympathy. If the EFL can give us the 3 points mind you that would be great.
I’d take the 3-0 and move onNot many people see them having a chance of staying up so it may not make much difference. Live in front of the Sky cameras could be too tempting whatever happens in the game.
Yep-the most one sided game I’ve seen in recent times and some how it ended 0-0!i imagine if the players strike the EFL will make them play the youth team like Bolton did against us in League 1 (and we know how that went!!)
Sympathy from the official possibly?Yep-the most one sided game I’ve seen in recent times and some how it ended 0-0!
Is that the game where we had 3 goals disallowed or something similarYep-the most one sided game I’ve seen in recent times and some how it ended 0-0!
