Players Wages

[wootter]

Should we have a collection at Accrington and next Tuesday to fund the players/staff wages ? May not be the full amount but a contribution to be split evenly between the staff ?

 

How could this be organised ?

Would be excellent if the SC could arrange this and present it to Micky and Marc Richards.

 

SO LONG AS THE MONEY ISN'T GIVEN TO THE CLUB I'D CONTRIBUTE!

cant do the accrington match due to best man bull**** but is there a paypall account i can chip into like the legal fund ?

[valefandan]

Definitely should be done. Micky sounded so depressed in his interview last night, mainly because he knew the players weren't getting paid despite putting in some great performances of late. What a great show of gratitude it would be and a statement we're all 100% behind them if we were to have a collection.

I feel sorry for Micky & the lads but I'm unsure whether I'd chip in for their wages.

 

Firstly Micky was warned to not get involved with the board but ignored us and made the board quorate which enabled Deakin and Miller in and the rest is history.

 

Secondly, for two years I've scraped by with no wages on many occasions, working stupid hours just to survive the recession. I've written off about 20 grand and nobody chipped in for me. I'm still paying for that now. They're privelidged guys earning more than I do in most cases and I have a bit of perspective, having suffered financially on a much larger scale.

 

Don't get me wrong, it's a horrible situation and I fully support them but I'm not funding their Mercs and beer tokens.

Ditto Bedo.......

Great idea, I'm up for it, we need to show ALL the players and staff that we are 100% behind them.

I'm sure the sensible players will have stashed enough away in their bank accounts to cover times like this.

**** the players wages, pay the taxman first because if you dont you will lose.

[mitchpvfc]

Maybe the same as the fighting fund, Get a venue booked, Raffles, a few local bands playing, Pints are a extra 50p (Going to the players/staff) £1 to get in, bucket collection, Just need a few gifts and a few bands wanting to making a name for themselves?.. surely this would go far?.. Just an idea, Its not there fault were in this mess, really feel for them!

Is this the sort of thing the supporters club could get involved with? It probably needs to be done officially due to tax considerations etc(we are in enough problems with them)and also the chance of theft.

Your havin a ****ing laugh surely???

 

I wake up at 5.30am travel around 1.5 hours to get to work, then do a 12 hour shift and get back in around 8.00/9.00pm and you want me to chip in with wages for the players, they can't even hang on to 1 goal lead!

 

I don't donate to charities such as Children in Need and Sport relief on the basis that these have programmes hosted by multi-millionaire celebrities begging for money.

 

If Robbie Williams and Phil Taylor are such big vale fans get in touch with them and ask them to pay them.

 

The only player i would pay towards is Doug Loft becuase he puts a shift in every game, no other vale player is worth it IMO

You have made me even more depressed:shutup:

[valetillidye]

I may be wrong but I'm sure I read/heard that the players wages are guaranteed - they may not get them for a while but they will get 100% of what is owed to them
