I remember the website went down for a few days earlier in the year - that looked to be a none payment issue as the server was still responding but the content had been moved - I presume if they were a creditor the same would have happened. |

Can't remember the exact reason given at the time, but I think it was due to human error of the computing kind, rather than the payment kind. |

| Quote ="Yorkshire Loyal"Does anyone know how they got into so much debt?
The crowds at wakefield ain't too bad, plus you don't really have any superstar players, so i can't understand it.
You have similer crowds as Huddersfield and attract the same calibre of players as them, but Hudders seem to be doing ok for themselves?
If your new stadium doesn't happen, as an outsider i think a good idea would be to move into Dewsburys Stadium. With a little work it could be a cracking stadium.
A few of my wakey mates have said the same, Would be a bit silly going to Barnsley'"
It's not about TOO MUCH DEBT it's about about having a debt level that's unserviceable, Wakefields debts are approx £800,000 which in the grand scheme of things is not that much.
Sts are reportedly £8Million, HKR £5Miliion and so on, the difference being that they can service their debt due to rich directors being willing and able to underwrite them.
Crusaders went into administration owing over £2.2Million so when you compare Wakefield with them you can see that Wakefields old BoD just ran out of money, options, collateral and Teds IVA was the final nail. |

None now.
If any get set back on in any capacity then I would like Andrew Glover to personally refund my season ticket as I won't be needing it. Perfect chance for a totally clean break. |

I'm sure you wouldn't be the only one feeling that way. The whole 'jobs for friends and family' (and it hasn't just been Ted's offspring who have had jobs in the past) culture needs to stop. We're top of the league in nepotism and brown-nosers. |

The administrators running troubled Super League club Wakefield have made around 30 staff redundant, but no players are among the casualties.
Administrator Peter O'Hara revealed the cuts ahead of hoping to conclude a takeover deal with prospective new owner Andrew Glover on Thursday.
"About 30 administration staff were given their notice yesterday," he said.
"There may be a couple staying on to work in the shop. But none of the playing staff have been dismissed."
Of the proposed takeover deal, O'Hara added: "[size=150 We expect to complete the deal today (Thursday), as we have been expecting to do for a few days,[/size but we are getting nearer. The other party keep coming back with queries."

A slightly tongue in cheek question, since we all know that 'administration' is not just about paperwork.
You're quite right though, that we seem to have developed a culture at the club of employing several people to do the same job; until recently, for all intents and purposes, we had three CEO's for gawds sake. The back story however is that lots of them have been part of or connected to the Richardson clan (sorry Clan).
If nothing else, this has been a good opportunity to clear out the dead wood; the club should be a leaner, more efficient entity when O'Hara finishes with his axe. |

i presume that includes part time employees who only do match days etc which is probably why the number is so high.

I agree with you there. I am really sad that he has gone.
He's been really helpful to us at the WYW DISABLED SUPPORTERS ASSOCIATION. |
