Stockport County – A shambles?

Are Stockport County now a shambles?

Up to now I have tried to be as positive as I can but this may be the straw that broke the back of many of us ‘glass-half-full’ brigade.

The Stockport Express are featuring us on their front page (go out and buy one today – a right rivitin’ read).

The story reads that because we owe money to the PFA we are unable to sign any more loan players by the football league. And guess what.. yep you guessed… Owain Fon Williams is struggling with injury and backup keeper Rigby is due an operation on his shoulder.

So we may have to play an outfield player in goal. Is that chappie Proudlock still with us? Portly fella, likes to think he can play keeper? Oh. OK. We may be in the mire folks.

Now, how can we owe money to the PFA? Have they paid players wages? This wasn’t mentioned at either fans forum so do we assume that is not the case then? If so what did the PFA lend money to us for?



If this doesn’t tell us where the club is right now then nothing short of the owners chaining the gates to EP will.

I can only hope and pray that the dire state of communication from both the Trust and the Club has contributed to the Stockport Express picking up on Chinese whispers, and that this news is, well, wrong.

In any event, brace yourselves fellow County fans. Impact due in the next couple of days I suspect.

What a shambles.
