Any help or advice gratefully accepted utt I'm guessing a 1945 club membership would be the first thing to look at. Apologies if you're already signed up 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apologies if you're already Thanks so much! I definitely need you to put on forum that you've spoke to a players mrs and although we are deeply deeply grateful for the thought of donations to the players we are very humbled but would love the money pooled together to be used to buy supplies for people who are isolated and are in great need especially elderly and as schools are closing, families who highly depend on free school meals.

snoopdog 323 Report post Posted March 19 Yeah I understand that wages will be a huge issue , but the message implied that fundraising would go direct to the players, all funding should go to the club who can then priorities , keeping a roof over our head is number one in my opinion. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Absolutely marra if there’s no club not a lot of need for players.dont think people will be as keen to donate( all be it’s still a great cause ) if it’s not to keep the club afloat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But should this carry on for any length of time I am really concerned that clubs may not be able to survive and potentially change the face of the game. Cant see any finical help coming from the rfl, they have finical troubles themselves, Please share, Thank you. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
townie88 544 Report post Posted March 26 Not rugby related. But the reds have just found out their season is to be voided! 10pts clear at the top. Been top of the pile for vast majority of the season! Feel for everyone at the club. They've had a great year under Danny Grainger. Now like most lower league clubs in all sports, fighting for their future. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Add to that , teenagers ... you can die as well . More n more young healthy people will die , take that in if nothing else does.

Things should be deferred or should stand , you’ve earned that PS I’d make an exception for the Premier League . Null and void ....

If this goes on for any length of time, which I think is likely, the face of some sports will be changed beyond belief. The next payment of money from nine and Fox to the nrl is apparently being stopped. Not sure how financially viable Australian rugby league is but overall those 2 companies put apparently 400 million dollars into the sport for broadcasting rights. That’s an awful lot of money and those broadcasters might just have the upper hand when they come to negotiate new contracts which just might be a lot less than they are now. Hopefully we’ll all still be about to watch the sport we love, whatever it’s form, when it’s all sorted. Stay safe everyone. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JMB 200 Report post Posted March 27 In Cumbria all our local clubs will struggle finically, rugby and football alike, but what I can definitely tell you is, as Cumbrians we have without doubt the best supporters of all in our amateur and semi pro sports, once all this is over the supporters and the community's will pull together in what any way it takes to keep all our clubs going. Cumbrian and proud, Stay safe people 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
