Try and keep positive! Things are tough enough as it is without all this miserable guff.

But tonight it seems to have disappeared." Comedy gold Marcus! I still don't think that you can assume that players can necessarily afford to take a pay cut, however: life ain't that simple. 6

Would you please delete Mallard's original post as I believe it is unnecessarily provocative.Would you please post on here what was said as I can find nothing about this on the club's website or the chairman's Twitter.A few have apparently compromised but the majority have said pay me me what I知What is your source for this? If this hasn't come directly from the chairman then it's no more than gossip which will undermine supporters' willingness to contribute themselves. If you don't have cast iron evidence for this statement then you should withdraw it. 9

This article suggests that the players are being perfectly reasonable. 11

And as I've said before, players may depend upon their income from football. All people tend to spend in relation to their income: mortgages, cars etc. It's all so easy to post a couple of references to players from other clubs offering to take pay cuts and then making the generalisation that Lynn players must do the same! Everyone's personal situation is different. I still don't have any confidence in this line of argument. It's unjustified and will simply discourage fans from contributing: a point that I have made before.

Thank you for taking the trouble to give this thorough overview of the situation. I hope the powers that be read it carefully.

Hardly the act of an unsupportive body.That's very true, although I thought it was the fans who raised the money, admittedly via trust initiative and organisation. Are you suggesting that the trust have at least tried to work with the club but the club haven't tried to work with the trust? |
