I can't think of any pro's.
The only thing we would benefit from is that we could walk away from our current obligations (i.e. paying the players and staff their wages, maybe what we owe to local suppliers, etc.). I'm not sure anyone wants to see that happen.
Either way, the money we could walk away from owing is probably a pittance compared to the season long budget.

| Well done to all in those encouraging statements.
Yes we have problems but they are current, in the medium and long term we have great opportunities.
It is essential we stakeholders (fans) do whatever we can to offset the current challenge - OUR CLUB WILL NEVER DIE BECAUSE IT MEANS TOO MUCH TO US

| Just read the statement on your website, I really hope it works out for you guys. I used to love going to Hilton Park as a kid and would hate to see another heartland club struggle whilst the RFL prop up clubs like Crusaders and Harlequins.
Also, whilst reading the statement I saw one of your directors is Phil Coffey, and wondered if anyone had a link to a photo of him? I'm just curious as to whether it's the same Phil Coffey I worked with in Manchester a few years back.

| Quote ="WHERESYERBALL"Would administration be a bad thing ?
If i am correct if we went into administration the only punishment from the RFL is points deduction it no longers harms your SL application. If we could avoid relegation as a result next seaseon it wouldn't be that bad AND it would meen that the current contracts we are tied into with catering etc would be nul and void meening we could re negotiate, i may be completely wrong so don't shoot me for suggesting it.'"
Been told theres no relegation next season amyways

Whilst there must be a temptation to 'walk away' from our debts, I think you'll find that there are some honourable people running the club. They would not willingly write off what the club owes, especially if it's money owed to local businesses, who they would want to continue sponsoring them.
Also, I suspect that HMR&C would not be thrilled at that outcome, either!

| Just reread that, it's actually quite positive if I've read that correctly. Small debts, talking to everyone, trying to avoid insolvency?
It'd be interesting to know what the debts amount to, but I'm happy to accept that this is confidential information.
Onwards and sideways.....

| 10/10 for this.
No arguments, no bull , no dreams just cold hard facts.
A honest open assessment that isn't open to interpretation.
The club is in big trouble and its about time all the bickering stopped and people started to focus on starting the rallying call to get people interested in the club and to help it out in whatever way that may beto whatever level they may afford.

Needs to be co-ordinated Matt. I suggest that the Forum is a good time to do that.

Why wait? A lot of money can be raised between now and Wednesday, and time appears to be of the essence.

| I'm struggling to think of any quick and easy fundraising exercises other than simply getting the wallet out.
Also what revenue will the club get, if any, from the upcoming internationals?

Unless the LSV run at a profit this year, and that isn't going to happen.
