Not sure if anyone was taking full notes? These are the parts I can rememberThe 'first hurdle' is to raise the £60k to pay off the winding up petition by 7th Jan. If I have got this right then this will see the clubs bank account unfrozen.
Whilst the money owing to HMRC is still to be paid, it is not being actively pursued by them at this stage.
According to Paul Highton, Ralph Rimmer from the RFL has told the players that there are two potential interested parties/investors and when asked if they were waiting until after 7th Jan, he said they have been told that they could be interested in getting involved before then.
Peel Holdings are still interested in putting up their share of the investment.
The 'robust' business plan is based on last years crowd figures and a reduced playing budget, and would see us make a small profit of £49k next season.
The money from the transfers of the likes of Moon was kept by the RFL and then used to pay wages.
The main aim was to publicise the £60k target figure as much as possible to get the awareness out there.
£20k has already been pledged and another £2k was pledged on the night.
The players are all up for any fundraising activities and are open to suggestions etc.
Any money donated is being kept in a seperate bank account from the clubs account.[/i
Pretty sure there will be a few other points that I have missed.
On a personal note I think there should be a statement either from FR or a joint one with the club to make it clear what the target amount is to be used for and what happens next if the target amount is reached. I think this would put a lot of peoples minds at rest and encourage more people to donate, as in my view there is still a lot of uncertainty about it all.
