Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: Rich Pullen on Thursday, February 12, 2009, 18:07:46 We should bring in Márcio dos Santos Gaia on a free then - but pass on Chris McPhee.
Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: STFC_Gazza on Sunday, February 15, 2009, 14:06:58 Not looking good for them.
Manager quit yesterday saying he cannot manage the team as there is no money and hasn't been paid and all his players will be leaving soon. Weymouth will field their youth team for the rest of the season if the players are not paid by the 25th February. Their whole first team will walk away after issuing a 14 day notice to the club on the 25th of February as free agents. The haven't paid anyone in 2009 and owe £300,000 to the tax man. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/w/weymouth/7890916.stm Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: Gazza's Fat Mate on Sunday, February 15, 2009, 21:23:40 who cares?
Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: Rich Pullen on Sunday, February 15, 2009, 21:27:46 Me. Non-League football is great - not that I'd want Swindon to be there.
Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: pauld on Sunday, February 15, 2009, 21:37:58 who cares? Just the same response we'd get from plastic Prem fans if we were in the same boat. In fact, pretty much what we did get from national media when we were in the same boat or close to. Nice attitude you've got thereTitle: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: Gazza's Fat Mate on Sunday, February 15, 2009, 21:46:42 if the club had been run probably would it be in the shit?
Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: axs on Sunday, February 15, 2009, 21:48:08 if the club had been run probably would it be in the shit? Properly not. Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: reeves4england on Sunday, February 15, 2009, 21:48:37 if the club had been run probably would it be in the shit? if our club had been run properly would it have been in the shit?Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: Gazza's Fat Mate on Sunday, February 15, 2009, 21:51:10 so why should anyone feel sorry for a club that fucked it's self?
if our club had been run well clearly we wouldn't be in the shit but swindon fans saw the shit that was happening and did all they could to sort it out ie the turst, protestes, buying shares etc etc etc Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: Rich Pullen on Sunday, February 15, 2009, 22:13:57 Weymouth don't exactly have a fanbase though do they? But that doesn't mean those who follow them should be blamed for their troubles.
PaulD's statement appears to be accurate. Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: tans on Monday, February 16, 2009, 12:26:14 I posted my cheque to them this morning.
Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: jayohaitchenn on Monday, February 16, 2009, 12:33:08 Properly not. I must have read that 5 times and only just got what you put. Good work sir! Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: axs on Monday, February 16, 2009, 12:54:13 I must have read that 5 times and only just got what you put. Good work sir! Glad someone did.

Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: Arnold.J.Rimmer on Saturday, February 21, 2009, 23:31:43 weymouth lost 0-9 today.
Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: STFC_Gazza on Sunday, February 22, 2009, 11:03:28 weymouth lost 0-9 today. First team refused to play so the youth team went out. They are truly in the shit, Will get an embargo this week so cant bring any players in and most likely will be kicked ot of BSP and BSS into the division Chippenham Town play in I think... Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: Peter Venkman on Sunday, February 22, 2009, 11:28:17 I have a friend who is a Weymuff fan and they are in deep deep shit now, almost certainly will be wound up before the end of the week.
Yesterday was a debacle for them and their results will almost certainly be expunged. So winning 9-0 away wont even go into the record books. Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: donkey on Sunday, February 22, 2009, 12:57:41 I've said it before, and I'll say it again, the only club I would wish to go bust are the franchise. I hope Weymouth do survive, good luck to them. There but for the grace of the Trust go us...
Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, February 22, 2009, 13:35:28 They'll go out of business and the fans will start a new AFC Weymouth / Weymouth Athletic starting a few divisions lower. It's a shame that it seems to be the cycle with non-league clubs battling above their weight a bit, nobody really seems to pay much attention though, even when it's clubs who've had a few years in the football league. Bye bye Halifax. Bye bye Scarborough.
Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: Spencer_White on Sunday, February 22, 2009, 14:17:07 I can see some big casaulties comming up.
Give it another 5 years. Charlton are going to struggle next season. Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: Sippo on Friday, February 27, 2009, 14:15:41 http://www.saveourclub.co.uk/index.htm

Yeah and the fans knew about the strike before the bookies and were placing big bets. The bookies lost a shitload of money. :D :D http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/article5792211.ece Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: STFC_Gazza on Wednesday, March 11, 2009, 10:46:22 Shit talk about bad luck. Weymouth FC get a new investor but the press conference was called off after the new investor had a stroke on the way to the press conference.,

How would you not know that in the first place as if you were going to invest that sort of money you would do some decent research i hope, plus it's common knowledge what a mess Weymouth are in, simple internet research taking 5 minutes would have stated the debt etc. Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: axs on Wednesday, March 11, 2009, 21:51:09 Some board members have been known to hide exactly how bad things are sometimes.

Give it another 5 years. Charlton are going to struggle next season. Hopefully Charlton will start struggling soon they have had a blinding start. Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: Peter Venkman on Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 16:49:55 Shame about Weymouth, they are a very friendly club with a nice stadium...by non league standards.
Could be a lot more teams folding this season. Title: Re: Weymouth FC Close To Liquidation Post by: Spencer_White on Tuesday, September 8, 2009, 17:14:20 Hopefully Charlton will start struggling soon they have had a blinding start. Still a mess off it. To be fair, I did say in a thread about Norwich that I thought they had by far the best chance of bouncing back up! But it could be shit or bust for them. |
