Someone I know who has links to the club reckons Allen has had to put in over £200000 of his own money this month to cover costs.

Christ, how the fook did it get into this mess?

With poor season ticket sales your looking at over a million in losses before a balls been kicked.

What the hell is his game?

The way we hire and fire employees; redundancy; general costs like electricity, rates and the like all have to come out of the business. I'd wager he'll be doing it for the next 3 months.

I think you may have misunderstood the point I was trying to make. The only people I'm having a dig at are those responsible for our demise. And with that in mind, is it not reasonable to question if you trust those in charge with your money? Personally, I don't based on everything that is well-documented on here, but like you say, each to their own.

It's not like a bank. You get what you pay for ...Watch a game of football. Sadly the money the club received isn't used wisely

[spireitetoo]

Has a date been set for a hearing yet?

[calvin plummers socks]

Surely we don't believe he is putting £200k of his own money into the club and allowing Carson to run it- no one is that gullible surely

Okay, so you stand shoulder-to-shoulder with all those exposing wrongdoing no matter how much it costs CFC.

Good to know, my friend.

You should be a politician as you twist words with the best. That’s not what I said, nothing like it.

Come on Chris you are better than that. Where did he say or even infer that?

[Benno Spire]

When can we expect to hear any updates on this?

What a good find that is! It shouldn't be too long before they put up their findings into the new manager betting case!

[Westbars Spireite]

Little surprise that the finger was pointed at Turner.

That makes great reading. So 1.4 million loss forecast for this year then. Nice to see Dave getting the running costs down 😳 . So guessing it's the fans fault again!

Shambolic. £1m players wages and forecasting a loss of £1.4m.

CFC 2001 Ltd is financially bankrupt. The losses year on year are unsustainable...and yet it's the fans fault.

People were given positions in the company they should never have been given and it's gone on since we moved to the Proact.

Sell up Dave, the horse is dead, you'll get some of your money back but it's futile. This club is just going through the motions and it's been ran appallingly by the sheffield mafia.

We remember 1983 & 2001.

[Benno Spire]

The culture stands out quite clear with lies and blame

[Westbars Spireite]

Even if every home league game was a sell-out we'd still lose money. Work that one out.

I've been asked to make people aware that with regard to point 20, at a meeting with AC, moondog, Steve coe and others on 25th January 2017,that AC was made aware of numerous allegations which included the payments to Myles and Jake. Point 20 of the club's defence suggests he wasn't made aware until May '17, some four months later.

[Westbars Spireite]

Carson in telling-fibs shocker.

If this was to be brought to the FA's attention would he or the club be liable for further punishment?

Paras 21-23 virtually say nothing the club says can be relied upon, so it would appear to matter very little.
What a unholy mess, and little evidence that things have improved.

[isleaiw1]

The whole report is a clear indication of the shambolic nature of the club...

- no financial control in the organisation
- a board who didn’t seem to take their duties seriously enough to know what was going off in the company-
- people in role who are either incompetent / insufficiently challenging or untrustworthy

If my parent company got a report like that about any of its subsidiaries, you can guarantee a spectacular clear out of those who presided over the mess. Yet the one person overseeing everything who is a legal Director is still there. The financial controls and processes have not been significantly improved - even when they apparently had the opportunity to get financially qualified people in as associate directors.

You have to wonder why....
