Questions for the club

I'm still looking for constructive contributions for a set of fans question for the club.

It would be great to have contributions from as many people as possible otherwise this just turns into my questions.

Below is a number of ideas I've compiled but none of them are set in stone so feel free to revise any of them.

It doesn't matter if some have seemingly obvious answers as not everyone is an expert on the world business or finance.

1) A number of clubs have entered administration renegotiated their debts in recent years, have the club considered administration as an option and what would be the pro and cons of doing so?

2) It has been said that the clubs debt would need to be repaid on a change of ownership. Why is this so and would it not be possible for a new owner to simply continue the current agreement?

3) Does the club still value the business at ?16m if not what would it take for someone with ?20m to invest to gain control of the club?

4) What was Peter Cullum's interest in the club and why could a deal not be made?

5) If the worst happens and we're relegated what would be the impact in terms of lost revenue and how would the club deal with the reduction in income?

6) Are we using so many loans because we don't want to be stuck with a squad of players on long term contacts if we're relegated?

7) Why are we paying so much in wages for failing players and how do we compare with other clubs in our division?

8) Was EventGuard sold to plug a hole in the finances or for some other reason?
