| Back on topic now
Anyone know who I would contact as I have a signed Fred shirt from the squad after the last game @ the Willows I'd happily donate to raise a little.
If anyone knows if there is a method set up for cash donations it might be an idea to put on a sticky on here as again I'll give what I can out my Christmas wage. I hate to think of the club going under and me not doing what I can, would be nice if the anti this and pro that people on here all pulled in the same direction for a change and did what they can help rather than just bitched on here as all the name calling masks the fact were close to not having a team to follow.

I am with you Mich - if we can get a fund set up I will donate too.

Totally agree about it being nice if the fans could pull together, but as for a fund for donations, we don't know what (if anything) is needed, and what it's for at this stage. Obviously there's Forever Reds, which is always accepting donations and is backed up by FSA regulation and strict rules on how monies can only support Rugby League in the area.

Deplorable. A horrible comment worthy of an apology. As your avatar infers a degree aptitude, perhaps you should apply it less callously and leave the controversial nastiness to Frankie Boyle?

| how have you got into this mess
one word
superleague
the main reason all clubs even ours get into this mess,either chasing it or trying to stay in it
The money the rfl have wasted in london,wales etc would have helped heart land clubs build a sound base to build from both a financially and team point of view

| The RFL have not spent a single penny on the London club, ever.

The last two years or so, have been like a really bad dream, one from which we aren't seemingly going to wake up from. Scriptwriters from a certain other Salford based soap opera could surely not have come up with what we have been served up
Tanks for reminding me how we got into this mess!

I'd be a bit wary of donating direct to the club if I were you. Look what happened to the £500k that Bradford raised in this way, swallowed up paying off directors loans and then still went into Admin.
I am a Wakey fan and have been through this also but I will tell you what our Supporters Trust advised Bradford fans to do (and were ignored). If you are going to ask fans to donate to the cause get the money donated into some sort of Trust (is Forever Reds your Supporters Trust?) and have it ready for coming out of Admin rather than using it to try and stop yourselves going into Admin.
How much better off would you be if you raised a couple of hundred thousand pounds and could put that towards a newco coming out of admin rather than it diappearing into a hole like the £1/2 Million at Bradford did.

| I have to agree with the above comment. I never truely understood the premise of donating to a club directly, with no control over where the money goes.
If my own club where in a similar situation I would want some idea of how much and what it will pay for and once that is gone, where will the club be financially. Still making losses, profit, break even????

| No one's advocating a straight donation, are they?

I'm afraid not. There are many myths about the London club, including the one about the millions the RFL wasted on it. London have received no special finance from the RFL, full stop. I assume you don't object to their receiving their share of TV and sponsor money?
