I was just reading up on the story about Forest paying wages late and how Fawaz claimed it was because it was a bank holiday. Except the wages are paid on a Friday and that is always a Bank Holiday in Kuwait and all Muslim countries, as that is the Muslim holy day. Banks are always shut on a Friday, so his claim that would have held up payments is quit simply untrue.

And yet he paid. Hardly a crisis. People forget the far more numerous winding up orders issued under Mr. Doughty and occasional missed payment. Social media amplifies the problem a 1000 fold nowadays.

{Ed001's Note - I think you are missing the point, this is happening every time there is a payment and yet he still has not fixed it. Under Doughty the money simply wasn't there, under Fawaz he just doesn't bother to fix it.}

Might not be a crisis yet but come summer if he hasn't sorted bills out balanced the books paid things on time then it will be he needs to get these things sorted at the club even if we come out of the ffp what players would want to come to us knowing there wages don't get paid on time what clubs will want to deal with us knowing transfers don't get paid sort it out simples 😊.

It may be normal in Kuwait or wherever this money is coming from. But I'd be extremely pissed off if my works pension didn't arrive on time. Any well run business ensures that when payday falls on a weekend or bank holiday it's paid on the working day before. Not that I've much sympathy with certain of those masquerading as professional footballers taking the money and not even on the bench. Well below average on and off the pitch.

If forest was a profit making organisation it would generate its own money in the bank. As were always running at a lose we are dependant on fawaz sending the money through.
Hopefully a good sponsorship deal and an increase in attendances will help towards this.
Alsogetting thee or four wage earners of 25k per week and replacing them with4 on 10k per week will help with cash flow.

Simple Question for everyone to answer over this issue.

Given a choice of customers would you want to supply NFFC with a service?

My answer would be no unless I was paid in advance which sums up why the clubs reputation is tarnished and we struggle to attract quality investors or personel!
