“It’s safe to say that they have been paid,” he said on Friday afternoon.

“My message to the fans is that it is very much business as usual.”

The reason for the delay remains unclear at the moment but it isn’t the first time that wages have been paid late.

It happened on three separate occasions in the 2016/17 season at the height of the club’s ownership and off-field difficulties.
