grumswall Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Wonder where the £25k figure has come from Think it's just an initial target. I'd imagine we will need more than that to keep going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine we will need more than that to keep If we didn't fulfil the final fixtures I reckon at 4 home games, roughly 1500 crowd, say 10 quid a pop once concessions are taken into consideration then you are looking at 60k minimum before sponsorship comes into it. Presumably we are expecting to fulfil those fixtures until told otherwise, so this target is a tide me over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The “good news”, is the numbers are actually around 1,700, of which about 700 at £10 a pop because the rest are Season Tickets. So £7,000 x 4 is £28,000, or remarkably close to the £25,000 target. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIT THE CHANNEL Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Any financially trained individuals able to comment on what the Chancellor’s financial package and loans mean for the Rovers? Loans to all businesses on ‘good terms’, business rate cuts/freezes etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I think the main question on everyone's lips is when will the Challenge Cup final take place, never mind the Scottish Cup and the Euro play offs and other such trivialities. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buchan30 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Maxwell also said that if fixtures were to start in june. Then the players would need time to get them up to scratch so they would have to go back to heavy training etc around april/may time. It does seem that they want to see this season out to it’s conclusion no matter what. When? God knows. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAR Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 The hope of a June finish to the football is just that-a hope. The virus may be much worse then unless there is a shutdown similar to those in many other countries. We appear to lack staff, facilities and protective equipment to deal with it. Much more testing will need to be done especially on medical staff to see if they can resume work. Let's hope the Govt. is on a steep learning curve. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paco Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Any financially trained individuals able to comment on what the Chancellor’s financial package and loans mean for the Rovers? Loans to all businesses on ‘good terms’, business rate cuts/freezes etc. I don’t know for sure if football qualifies but what should’ve grabbed attention for every lower league football club is a £25k grant announced for all ‘leisure’ companies. Loans are available and are government guaranteed but that isn’t new and nor is it a long-term solution (for anyone, not just Raith). Right now they’re scheduled to be paid back in a year. Tight turnaround, but if things get desperate it should keep the wolves from the door at least until next year. Johnson and Sunak did their best to be as vague as possible so we’ll see in the next day or two if anything can be gleaned from a Raith perspective. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Quite a few non-Raith fans contributing to that crowd funder. Quite humbling actually. We've now cleared £5,500. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 To get donations from fans of other clubs, especially during such uncertain economic times, is absolutely fantastic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
