I've just taken a look at that thread and there's come pretty gut wrenching figures:
Quote urbancarrot="bluenwhite"
SP of tonight's meeting
Club in debt to the tune of £550,000
DES is personally owed £113,000 Johnson Recruitment figure a bit grey at present.
Club needs revenue input of £100,000 per year over & above any revenue such as gate fees, goldrush lottery.
Coach announcement on Friday.
Schofield settled out of court for an undisclosed sum.
Home Games to be played on a Sunday
Season Tickets 120/90/30 Full Price?Concession/Child
as the above was added using my Iphone here is an addendum
Owe £37.5k To HMRC
It is hoped that the £550k can be an arranged loan over a ten year period, not sure whether to mention Bank so left out on purpose. However even if there was no interest applied thats a grand a week.'"
On the face of it it seems insurmountable. Not good.

It is only ' surmountable ' because they own the stadium , I would guess that they might be able to loan against it to pay off the debt
Bloody mess though , I really feel for those fans , they've been through the ' ringer ' the last few year

| I've also just read a newspaper article that Mr. Johnston is still a director and is owed about £110k. I didn't think he was allowed any involvement in rugby league or does being a director of a club not count?
(sorry for hijacking the thread)

If they don't severe ties then Barrow run the risk of being expelled from the league.

No disrespect, but with the state of the ground and to be fair the state of the area, and the economy in that area, how much could they raise as a loan? and with their gates how would they pay it back?
I have gone on record as saying I wish Barrow were still in our league and I wish them well.
But,
