Be interesting to see if and what squad we name this week.

I wonder what the six figure boost was going to be or if its just another inflated lie been fed to people. There is no way that shirt sponsorship even over 3 seasons is anywhere near to even half that amount. The board have fed people so much BS that it is now hard to believe anything that they say.

Gareth Dean has a lot to say on FB I don't know the ins and outs of his falling out but the picture he paints, again if true, does not paint any of the board in a good light. Shaun who posts on there a lot was also a huge advocate of the BOD but he was been fed information off somebody on the board, my guess was RD, that has also turned out to include a lot of lies, the cover up of the mess the club is in has run quite deep. I also see Mark Moore posting quite a bit trying to raise funds but if the club is allowed to go to the wall, which I think seems to be the best option at this stage, then he would be a decent shout to be involved with any new club.

Looks like the replacements away shirt sponsor Ticketpass has now been served a struck off 2 month dissolution notice starting from the 13th of August.

Now councillors meeting with the club down at the Shay which can only mean one thing being discussed beginning with “R”.

Yep, can't disagree with this. Other creditors in 2023 showed as £190k which isn't necessarily related to related parties. And there is no related parties note detailing loans from directors and/or shareholders so I'm assuming this £700k invested by directors/shareholders happened in 2024?

Also don't like this at all: "We reached out to HMRC for an extension and time to pay, something that has been granted to other clubs recently". So the taxman has one rule for one and a different rule for others?

When not having access to who said what to who and when it was said in the past I can’t honestly say what the truth is and will probably never know.
But I can see, hear and read what’s being said now and that appeal from LK is riddled with contradictions from start to finish.
The club had said that the response has been “phenomenal” and prior to that also said what the immediate crises was, namely the taxman and players wages covering the time period of this and next week.

All I can say is that by the end of next week they better have used these donations to get both of them payed and tell us they have done so.

80K Needed by the middle of next week according to Calander TV news.

Another question we should be asking is if by some miracle we make it through this, do we want these people running our club?

Another statement has just been published by the club details figures

Also the trust are just handing over money donated with no specification of where it will be spent which is also worrying.

Yes this is a worry, I know they are trying to help the club but this is head in the sand stuff. The trust should come out with a statement after speaking to the board and making sure that money is going to the right places or it should be set aside for a new club. Given the boards statement it looks like massive missmanagment on behalf of the board and any plan will be just the usual pipe dream plan they have put out during the season. Sack it off now and start from the ground up.

What a bunch of clowns. Couldn't organise a up in a brewery.

In fact I don't want to put another penny into this set up. Even thinking of not going on Sunday. All of a sudden need 200k to survive until the end of the year? It just doesn't make sense.

When the question was asked if the money was just going to be handed over with the club deciding what to do with it or if the Trust could specify what they wanted it to be used for I thought Mark Moore and the trust guys said that was the very question they were having among themselves and a meeting was going to be held with the board regarding it?

The handing over of money is just like when Bradford raised half a million and handed it over. It went into a black hole and the club still went bust. People have short memories.

The situation is dire at best. Any money that goes into the club right now is likely to go straight to HMRC, and may still not be enough to save it. Meanwhile the staff and players haven't been paid fully. Why is this? has money been withheld to pay HMRC? Meaning gate receipts and other income sunday can go to paying the wages?

If you don't pay people on time, it's the beginning of the end. There are some incredibly loyal and long serving staff members, but loyalty isn't going to put food on their tables or pay their bills.

Needing £200k + to see the year out before even looking at next year sounds impossible. We have 2 home games left. So very limited income beyond this. Season tickets sales will be minimal because who is going to buy one in the current situation? Likewise sponsorship income isn't going to exist because other than the loyalist of fans who are in a position to sponsor through their businesses. Who is going to put money into sponsoring a club that may not make it to the end of the year?

I admit i'm not being very optimistic, but what is there to be optimistic about?
