Those guys are absolute legends if true.
And let's face it, absolute mugs at the same time.
Yep, definitely both.

Elm Park Kid I like the idea of being able to donate to buy a ticket for someone else. Larger crowds, club gets more money, maybe create some more long term fans.

Snowball Apologies if this suggestion has appeared elsewhere
The club needs cash to complete the season without more points-deductions
An early 2024-2025 season ticket purchase might be too big an ask but how about non ST holders “buying forward” a few home games (and at the same time dragging mates along)
If (IF) we could get 3,000 extra fans for 3 more home games, all paying forward at, say £20 a game that is 180,000
If the media got behind things and we could fill the stadium, the extra could be 9-12K times £20 x 3
3 full houses (say 10K more spectators each game) at (say) £15 pp avg is £450,00
Just thinking out loud…

I'd like to think at this late stage that it's a promising sign that a sale is proceeding, otherwise why throw away more money on a dead duck.

From Despair To Where? I just don't think that, a business would throw another £200k at another failing business without some inkling that it's not going to be dead money. They're not that big a business to be able to just write those sorts of sums off.
Even as a loan, they'd get fcuk all out of administration or liquidation.

I wouldn't have done it first or second time.
Your suggestion is certainly possible, but it just seems wishful thinking.

WestYorksRoyal The SCL rumour has been posted by a few random, whereas the mystery grim news is just the account which reported that Red Bird were being fronted by Storey
Fairly contradictory rumours by the same guy too. SCL are rescuing us again, but there's also awful news coming.

I'm not sure what grim news there could actually be.
Prospective new owners are awful? Ok well much as I don't want awful it keeps us in club longer
Prospective new owners have pulled out? Well the lack of any concrete progress hasn't exactly pointed at a deal going through in time to save us.
Wages/tax not being paid so more points deductions? Kinda secondary to the owners, doesn't matter if we're relegated without finding a new owner because we won't be starting next season anyway.
Dai has started liquidation proceedings? Well we're sleep walking into non-existence anyway. At least we'd have a resolution.

WestYorksRoyal And I don't really think liquidation makes sense either, it's definitely against Dai's financial interest.

It would mean he could sell the real estate assets without having to fund the club in any way.
