In my experience of fundraising you have a big initial enthusiastic start and then it slows. They're only 10% of the way after how long?I think it might be £16700 (there's another 0 on the line below), its just a shit graphic.

Agreed, they'll never get there unless one big investor puts money in.In my experience of fundraising you have a big initial enthusiastic start and then it slows. They're only 10% of the way after how long?

They sold 3 year season tickets even before last season had finished.
I suspect they will run out of cash in the next couple of months. The biggest creditor will be the Council who may extend the term on the loan and not call them in so it may well fall to others to push them over the edge. I wouldn't want them as a debtor at this point.

They'll be sending plastic MIBs round, banging on doors for money next.

Just read the programme from Saturdays game.
Just 2 extracts that sound so sad....
"last Saturday felt like the grimmest of grim Crystal Palace-in-December-1989 afternoons"
"Entertainment wise although we haven`t got any scouse-busting seventies United heroes for you this time round"
I really dont know what they are striving to achieve, I honestly dont get it.

They made a point in the programme about rattling buckets to help meet debts. Dont get me wrong Darlington and other clubs do this to raise funds at this level but they also made the point that payments are coming due on the stadium and need to be met.
I suspect as you say the period will be extended as one or two councillors stand to look very stupid if they go under.

Set up a Moston RLFC or North Manchester RLFCAnd there lies the problem.... who is going to buy a 5,000 capacity football stadium, built using pallets, (and not even completed at that) in Moston?
