I don't think withdrawing the money by a board member is allowed either, which would be involved if we were to pay off his contract. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why would it involve a board member withdrawing money? Not saying the money could be used to pay him off but, if it can’t, it will be nothing to do with the inability of a director to withdraw it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but if the money can't be withdrawn then how can we use it to pay off his contract? ETA - What I mean is if the money isn't allowed to be withdrawn or pass hands then we won't be able to use it to pay off his contract. Hopefully we can though.

Jan mosniack Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Forgot Ayr were favourites. Was pleasantly surprised to be quoted 7-2. Lumped a wad on for the easiest money ever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to say the exact same in an earlier post. I'm not saying we don't have money, I'm just not sure if we can use the 500k to pay him off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No we probably can't use that particular money for that but sure there is ways and means it'll shouldn't cost that much to pay them both off tho. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your post only said it wasn’t allowed to be withdrawn by board members, not that it wasn’t allowed to be withdrawn at all. I think that restriction (and the one re owners) only applies to make sure directors don’t use it to pay themselves or to pay dividends to shareholders or otherwise reward owners. If it is used to pay the players’ or the manager’s normal wages, it will be withdrawn by employees. However, there may be other restrictions that prevent it being used for one-off events like paying off a manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Strapp is a starter for ten and Dundee United probably had three more on their books alone.

To put it in perspective, once the Oxford vaccine has been approved, the money being sent to championship clubs could pay for the vaccination of over 800,000 people. I can do stupid comparisons too. 5 minutes ago, parsforlife said: Last season. Martin, traemarco, robson, Marshall, Harvie. Dick and Strapp could be argued as well. Holt is better than Marshall.
