Clifford Nelson Posted 24 June, 2009 Share Posted 24 June, 2009 The FL will not under any circumstances change their mind, and today's empty space that we are all staring into is the lack of change and the time it takes for them to answer Pinnacle's letter all over again. It is a terrible abuse of power, as Mark Fry says, but that is nothing new, and nothing directed especially at Saints. Why would FL care if Saints didn't compete next year? They would only promote another club or run League One with a team short. Let the truth sink in: THIS IS OUR CONCERN, NOT THEIRS! My consideration of eating an old hat if they change their mind seems less and less risky for every hour that expires. I'm getting increasingly convinced that Jim Ratcliffe is the man behind this, because he is used to playing hardball, taking things to the wire and squeezing blood out of stones. I don't think he can believe that things aren't going to change, but then he's never dealt with the FL before. I just want to get back to football and all the normal boring discussions.

I suggest he gets the money into the bank so wages and the HMRC can be paid. When does the players representative contact the Players association to talk about the clubs breach of contract with them for not paying their wages? that will be the next crack in the fans and players relationship as soon as that happens, something else we all cant afford.
