| Quote: Cibaman "Surely if we were anywhere near to the target there would have been a more frenzied last minute appeal for cash? If we only needed another £20,000 - £30,000 they'd have kept the pledge open another day, begged fans to pledge or increase their pledges this morning. We'd have had ex players like Robbie Paul on the pitch before the game and at half time making emotional appeals. Yes there were people with buckets, but the club didnt seem to be be drawing the fans attention to them, asking for that extra fiver that might make the difference.
We've either made the target comfortably or are well short. Or they've got a buyer lined up.'"
If the board were confident of reaching the target or had already reached the target why not announce it last night, sadly by putting the announcement back to today, can only been that the target as not been raised and that you are going into administration. Then again administration might be the best option for you.
It was a cracking atmosphere last night and the better team on the night won. On a lighter note how many times does that Muppet Steve Bailey have to tell us "I''m Steve Bailey"

| Does not follow at all, since they need to know how much was raised at and as a result of the game before making final decision.

I hope you do reach the target, but I ain't confident and i don't fall for everything that your club's board as been saying.

They had a big backlog of pledges and weren't able to count them all in time along with the proceeds of the match and bucket collections last night. I'm more than confident after being in the office yesterday afternoon.

| Does anyone know how the pledge announcement will be made? On a radio station, via the club's website, or simply as a statement to the press, filtering out to other sources as soon as the journos can upload it?
It's going to be frustrating if we just have to keep hitting refresh on the website!

| Hmm. I located rlthisrl, but it's unclear whether the site will do any more than just hit refresh on your behalf!

OK, so why not make an announcement at last night's game saying "Due to the backlog of pledges we are unable to announce that we have reached the initial 500K target, however once the pledges have been counted we are confident that the 500K will be reached and that it will be announced at 1130hrs tomorrow"

| I think I'd rather hear the truth about the future from the club rather than a bit of idle speculation in place of an actual announcement.

Never liked Kevin Costner, or any other Robbing Hood!!!!: |
|
| Suggests they are taking the p--s!
The numbe of people saying they need to communicate more effectively and be honest with fans has had no impact at all!

| If the deadline could have been 5pm on the 9th all along, then why not give themselves as much time as possible right from the outset?
It's things like this that give the cynics out there plenty of ammunition regarding this whole fiasco.
