If the adverse publicity meant that urgent steps were taken to ensure that the staff were paid today when it was apparent the usual transfers had not gone through then that is all good as far as I am concerned.
I cannot help but wonder how those condemning Airman and others who exposed this would react if it was THEIR wages that were apparently not paid.
I note your comments and you can disregard mine as you wish.
I've been doing that for years. Ever since I heard you having a massive row on your phone with someone I presume was from RTM, probably Steve Sutherland, at a motorway service station on the way to Old Trafford. It was just after the club had announced an exclusive deal with Capital Radio and so was then the end for Charlton Chat/Charlton Live for RTM/Radio Thamesmead/Millennium Radio. That was a crap decision that probably brought in peanuts and is up there with Richard Murray's decision to sack Brian Cole.

Dont be a plank Len they were paid.
Yes they were but the one thing we will never know is whether they would still have been if this had not been made public c 9:00am.

Adverse publicity? So everyone rushed around to pay the wages just because it was posted on here? Do me a favour.
And yes, I wouldn't be happy if a third party posted for the World to see I hadn't been paid as I know it wouldn't make a blind bit of difference other than to undermine those who were paying my wages.

Nice logic Len.And in three months time when they don't have a job anymore where will they turn to for their money?

If you want to shit stir, wait until the next day and get your facts right and then post.

lol yes, the club weren't going to pay a squad of players in the second tier of English football and all it's staff until the people of Charlton Life caught wind of it.

Not singling out Airman, although I agree he should never have raised the matter in the first place. Within five mins of his post,there were others citing it as evidence of why we should never thank the current owners for their stewardship of the club.
When this sale goes through, Slater & Jiminez will have passed on the club in a much healthier position than it was when they inherited it. That means they go down in the ledger of Charlton history with a credit rather than a debit. And that seems to infuriate some folk.
Don't know how old you are but do you understand what an an independent fans forum in the internet world is? Are you saying that posters should be careful not to post anything that may cause offense to the current board/owners? Or that may be factually incorrect? This site benefits greatly from posters who clearly have contacts/inside info. Are you saying to AB that he should be careful about what he posts because, unlike you, a lot of CL users are so gullible they will jump to the wrong conclusions? What other threads/posts on CL over the last few months do you think should have been censored so as to protect the rest of us from been led astray?

The press read Charlton Life and other forums.
But you know that really.
Do you really honestly think that the certain members of staff/players wouldn't mention to press that they haven't been paid??? That the club would get away with it until it was mentioned on a forum?
Did it also enter your mind that it could actually be an error? Or is that not juicy enough and this is a better and easier way to have another dig at those in charge?
In fairness to Len there's a game tomorrow and I'm sure the board would rather not run the risk of the crowd getting on their back if it had come out that no one had been paid so maybe they had their arm forced by it becoming public...or maybe it was just an admin error after all?

Richard Murray didn't sack Brian Cole, but he did engineer the Capital deal to put a stop to Charlton Live. It had bugger all to do with me, but I do know the financial logic was overwhelming.
Wouldn't have been Suthers but I don't honestly know who it would have been. From recollection Mark Mansfield refused to cover the match (happy to be corrected on whether it was that match), but it wouldn't have been him.
Just a thought, I wonder how relevant the AVC application was to the leaks we all seen this week in the press. Everyone has assumed they were to flush out a prospective buyer or force the hand of a potential bidder, what if they were to sow discontent and division amongst us to prevent the AVC application going through.
But Bournemouth, in what way would the board A) think they could simply get away with not paying staff think it would remain out of public knowledge C) have the money ( which they had as staff have been paid) and jeopardise not only morale after a win but also the potential of a takeover.

Not sure how the leaks would have prevented ACV from happening.

I don't understand anything. But my mummy let me stay up late as it's Friday night and there's no nursery class in the morning, so I thought I might as well post something, even though I don't really grasp these grown-up issues.
Be patient with me. It's only by listening to the wise words of people like you that I will ever learn the ways of the world.

I'm with Addikted and NSS on this.

If staff haven't been paid then bleating about it on here is hardly going to help them get paid?
Just came across as someone quickly throwing a punch while there is still somebody there to hit.
O say can you see, by the dawn's early light...
