Will they move all their players, coaching and medical staff and their families over here for a few months? That's some undertaking.

Alot of doom merchants on at the minute.

Im pretty sure Adam, our fans and everyone involved will do there upmost to ensure our club doesnt go bust

We had the proposal only a week or two ago about playing games behind closed doors but using pay per views to honour the broadcasting deal, keeping the current funds recieved by sky, as well as the extra momey for clubs due to pay per view income. Say 20,000 (rough estimate) people pay £8 to watch a game thats £160k a game recieved. I wouldnt like to guess how many fans would pay to watch but i think itd be possibly higher than 20k due to the lack of sport and the ease of how you can watch at home.

There will be ways around this, so the predictions of going bust are a bit premature in my opinion. I think an abit more positivity is needed

I’m going to sign up for that as well I think. Seems a more affordable way of doing something.
My pass is paid monthly but they can have that. Watching any games will be a bonus.
Wish I could do more, but like everyone it’s not an easy time at the moment.

Bills to pay and the bank refusing a loan. That's when companies go bust.
I'd imagine Mr Allam will be demanding his rental charges, games or no games.
He'll get away with it because he'll say city are paying theirs, which in practice, make no financial difference to him.

Im pretty sure funds can be raised, thats when companies dont go bust.

Some positive news

The VPs have proudly donated £5,000 to @hullfcofficial and will work with @FCVoices and the club to support it further.
The association will also work tirelessly with supporters in any fundraising ventures the club suggests after yesterday’s announcement. #IAKOW #Oldfaithful

I think Mrs B’s virtual ticketing idea is worth looking at ?
Also somebody suggested on Facebook a “pay now, play later” friendly with Rovers . Sell the tickets. Split the proceeds between the 2 Clubs.
Play it at a later date for the Clive Sullivan trophy .
