New Leaks

This came out this morning and hasn't made its way here so thought I'd get it on as it's quite interesting.

Firstly the leak contains documents which confirm the restrictions that were placed on BM in regards to team selection.

Hisham valued Ross at £1m and Aidy White at 400k. This was discussed in terms of "Try to get...."

Umbers suggested a high interest loan in mid 2013 and Hisham declined and said it would be better to sell Byram and McCormack.

GFH were aware of the HMRC payment being due and were aware that HMRC were about to issue a winding up petition. Salah asked Hisham for GFH to put money in to cover this but this request was obviously declined.

The PFA told the club that they were not allowed to pick their favourite players to pay them their wage (whilst they were struggling to pay them) so they had to opt to pay 15%. (Can't believe that they even tried that one).

Here is a rough breakdown of payments due on 03/04/14. Exact figures are available but I've rounded. Adds up to £255, 661.15. The club account balance stood at £265, 000.00.

£14k - Team away hotels, if not paid then no hotel for Wigan game.
£10k - Salaries for people who look after the academy players in their homes
£11k - Kingstons Comms, if not paid then phone lines cut off.
£21k - Storm International, retail items, are coming to remove stock from site.
£42k - Sinels, Admatch, non payment will result in loss of a £500k case.
£11k - Triton Security, withdrawal of security officers at TA and ER
£2k - Sykes House Farm, food for players
£50k - Combined property rent
£93k - 15% to all except Nunez, whom will be paid nothing.

And yet, the FL approved these imbeciles?
Bates and Harvey knew exactly what they
Were doing. It's laughable and extremely
Sad all at once. If I had a time machine I'd
Go back and make sure Bates parents never
Met. What a waste of oxygen.

The FL approved them because they met all the criteria in the test applicable at that time. The FL doesn't have access, nor time, to go through all emails and each aspect of each persons life.

So once again, their test proves useless.

Easy to get through the net but what can they really do? They can review a snapshot of their finances but we all know most businesses have funds all over the place. They can review any criminal records. But beyond that they can't really do much else. Quite easy to circumvent but not really a better alternative.

Am being a little thick here possibly, and clearly haven't been keeping up because it sounds like we are in administration again, but which elements of the original post are relevant now, and what is water under the bridge?

These are all comms from GFH when they had 100%
