We didn't buy the tickets from the club though, it was all done through some shitty company that charged us for the "service".


Well that's one theory solved then.

I am sure if you look at the accounts you will see that £200,000 was put in before the play off final,

Unless Mr shut up is a dodgy accountant.

Good point M91

Something doesn’t add up....maybe our accountant needs to be asked to explain how it cost so much?

Expenses are never shown in timed detail like that.

I've always had an issue with this. How on earth would it cost £200,000 to cover the expenses for three games? If that was the case then a 50 game season would cost you £3.4million before you're even taking players wages into account. And it's not like there would have been a large police bill for a game against Braintree and their 50 fans.

Perhaps I'm naive but what costs for the play offs would be anywhere near this expensive? I thought at the time that this was a bullshit excuse and I've not heard or read anything that has changed my mind.

There's absolutely no way that we paid £200,000 out in bonuses for reaching the play offs. And it can't be bonuses for promotion either because we were told the "loan" was put in before the play offs.

a few weeks extra wages i would think as the players are only paid up till the last game of the normal season and the playoffs and the cup final  are after that.

Really??? Yes not £200k in bonus alone but, Match day squad of 15 @ say 5k (min) each = £75k add employer NI & pensons takes it to £85k  

Then add £10k bonus for Hurst, £5K each for Doig and Dave Moore.

Add say 20 London rate hotel rooms (min) x 3 nights, food, travel, training facilities, suits and sundries, urine up afterwards ..... it mounts up for sure.

The bonus structure would have been agreed wel before the play offs as an incentive to get there.
