They may do, and it would explain their recent good humour - absinthe making the heart grow fonder and all that..

Pay day today and the generous administrator has paid my daughter twice. Maybe we have loads of dosh after all. Think he may have paid more than her twice, bloke from Bulls has phoned to ask for one of them to be returned. Wonder how many will.

Well, legally, they ALL should. Otherwise you're kind of in a fraud/theft sort of situation and nobody wants that.

Of course she will pay it back. She is 17 and went through the thought process of what if I wait til next week to see what happens, if someone buys us from the administrator they might forget about the £120 she owes and "happy days". Don't know where she gets it from.

Another relative who works for the Bulls was not double paid so it's not the whole payroll being paid twice.

The two administrators : Sat Mar 01, 2014 3:09 pm  

Brendan Guilfoyle and David Wilson.

The former was painted as a villain of the piece and was often in the media, while the latter is not actually in the public eye at all.

It seems there is a very, very different path taken by David Wilson this time around with players leaving for starters.

I'm not sure I have much of a point, but I found it interesting (however just as upsetting) to see how this current administration period is handled when compared to the 2012 ring-fencing and working for free.

I wonder what other forumers think about the situation from then and now?

Re: The two administrators : Sat Mar 01, 2014 3:18 pm  

I'm not going to hog your forum, but what occurs to me, from the outside, is that you are victims of timing. Had the same approach as now been adopted in 2012, at the start of a franchise, you would have a couple of years to rebuild yourself, financially and on the field, before a relegation season. Your problem isn't the shedding of players per se, but in the timing of it.

You are hogging our forum now

Re: The two administrators : Sat Mar 01, 2014 3:27 pm  

Your are never going to be popular if you make a career as an administrator. However I think despite the abuse Guilfoyle tried and kind of suceeded in selling on the club as a going concern. With players going this time not sure Wilson is even trying to do this.
