Quoted from Withnail
Meanwhile Gareth Bale is on £600k a week and spends most weekends on the golf course.


Hard to blame the player for how much he earns and how he spends his time given that the club agreed to pay him that wage and the manager won't pick him.

owner to blame 100%, sad for the fans


Entirely agree. Didn't pay the players for some months. Sorry for the fans and the players.

Great real ale pubs down Sunderland Street in Macc pre and post match.


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

Always sad to see a club wound up. Pity it isn’t one of the PL, plenty there with dodgy owners but, hey, we’re the Prem and we look after our own.

If someone bailed them out  they would go bust again eventually as they don't have enough fans to be sustainable at this level without major input from benefactors.

I wonder how many managers were straight on the phone to the Macc players offering them a contract?

Im no expert. Were there any decent players who played for Macc?

Feel for the true fans and hard working staff fighting an uphill battle in keeping their club alive always been made to feel welcome in the local pubs and and in the Keith Alexander lounge, it was always a fixture I looked out for RIP MACCS Perhaps they may reform and climb back through the pyramid without the noose of debt around their shoulders

Yes that'll be good with all the staff who wont be on inflated wages losing their positions too.

Quoted from promotion plaice

When you see how badly (financially) some clubs are run it makes you appreciate Mr Fenty a bit more for running a tight ship.







Aren't our debts bigger than what Macclesfield owe?

The way I see it is this; the club only owes money to one person.  That person owns the club, so we're debt free.  

That's also why we'll never have another leader, as nobody is willing to pay him all his investment back after nearly 2 decades of decline.
