We were always getting our money when the payment was due... it’s a footballing debt so is protected... only way we would was if Wigan folded
we will get some to start with, but I reckon they will owe others too. So we may not get the full amount just yet IMHO.
Means we should get our money, but we'll be behind their players in the queue I reckon. Reported that 1.5m outstanding of the fee owed to us. Also money owed to Everton for Robinson and Williams and to Portsmouth for Lowe. All signings they made last summer, that they would not be able to afford from club income once one transfer out (Robinson to Milan) fell through. "Well run club"
"There has been interest from Cardiff for some time, I am thrilled to get it over the line" I bet Wigan fans, who were thrilled that he was thrilled to join them from Barnsley, are now equally thrilled that he is now thrilled to join Cardiff less than a year later.
That’s ridiculous. We’ll still get the money unless they are liquidated, but we shouldn’t have to wait so that the ridiculous wages that got them into this mess can be paid.
Creditors who are owed money are always the last in line. This is dreadful. Footballers are getting the best deal always.
Reading it again, it looks like it's specific to Gelhardt. We'll still get what we're owed from the Moore transfer.
I know, but further down in the article it mentions other transfers being used to clear footballing debt. It’s a shockingly written article anyway.
