    Macclesfield

    Their players are refusing to play against Kingstonians today as they’ve not been getting paid.
    They are having to put a team of kids out. Before you rush to your betting apps to lump on an upset, it looks like the bookies have read the news. Kingstonian are only 3/4. You can get almost 3/1 on a home win.

    Yes I saw this whilst looking who to add to the Prediction league for next Saturday’s fixtures and thought best not to choose them in case they refused to play next week.

    Sol Campbell knew when it was the right time to leave but, it appears he’s jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire at Southend.

    Due to geography and the collapse of traditional trades, is Macclesfield a place that can support a professional football team?

    They pave been having problems for a while, was mentioned when Bury troubles started.

    Joe Sealey, the son of former Manchester United goalkeeper Les, says he wants to buy Macclesfield Town and can help sustain the League Two club.

    Here we go again with the statements.

    Macclesfield Town has been charged with misconduct under EFL Regulation 63.7 for non-payment of wages and referred to a Disciplinary Commission for failing to pay its players on the applicable payment due dates.

    The EFL recognises the impact the non-payment of wages has on the health and wellbeing of those involved and has been engaged in discussions with Macclesfield Town and the Professional Footballers’ Association (PFA) to try and find an appropriate solution.

    The Club was given until 4pm yesterday to provide a response to the EFL’s request for information in this respect. As a result of the information provided, the EFL has notified the Club of multiple charges related to failing to adhere to the terms of the contracts that are in operation.

    The Disciplinary Commission has the power to impose a full range of sanctions as set out in Regulation 92 if the Club is found to be in breach.

    As a result of the Club fulfilling its obligations in respect of playing last night’s Leasing.com Trophy fixture, the EFL has released an immediate payment of £30,000 secured through participation in this season’s competition to assist in the payment of wages to players and staff.
