I suppose it was inevitable that this would happen.Will this have an impact on the signing of players.
Can't believe this when our owners are worth millions.Yes we don't know how many staff and how much money we are talking but surely it won't be that for much money and for long.If we go back to playing in September but fans aren't let in till say November we are talking about 6 months.If the owners can't cover the wage for say 6 months then I really fear for the club in the future.Wonder if this includes our u23 staff as we won't have a full team. Also if Baldwin is included as he really important to Club Doncaster as a whole
We now have 2 threads on the same subject.
As far as I’m aware, there’s a 45 day notice period for redundancies. That would take us towards the end of August. From 1st September employers have to contribute a minimum 10% of salary to someone on furlough. From 1st October that increases to 20%. At present there is no obligation to pay any extra. My business is completely different to DRFC but in my situation, I re-opened last week using the part time furlough for my staff. I’m now only losing £200 a week instead of just over £300 if I stayed closed. By 1st October, if takings haven’t improved, I’ll be losing just over £300 a week open or closed. When the furlough scheme ends, on those figures I’d have to close permanently. My guess is that DRFC have made projections along similar lines but with much larger sums of money.

When you have no (or very little) income, that’s still a decent cost to fund.
But no one knows when fans will be allowed back into the stadiums.Personally I will be surprised if it will be before 2021 arrives.
I’m a bit confused with the term redundant. The way I understand it, redundancy refers to the role, that is you are making the job redundant and not the individual. Therefore, you can’t set anyone else on in that particular job/role.The affect is the same - people have gone from the Club - but does it mean nobody can be re-employed into those particular jobs, when things pick up again, as they surely will.
Redundancies will be taking place at the club within the next few weeks. Consultation is taking place already, but it does bring home how difficult these times are for football clubs. The only hope I can offer is that it could be worse, much worse. However the response to IRSWT has been positive, and we have to support where we can.We really can't be talking about new signings at a time like this. For those about to lose their jobs and careers it must be incredibly difficult.

SMWhen I said all this was going to happen people said I didn’t know what I was saying and poured scorn on it, they said we had enough money streaming things to thrive and when I said most of not all of them have dried up through the virus, but as I said then company’s have other things to do without funding Rovers. Now we will have Some fans not coming back for a good time through ether financial or finding other things to do or not trusting big crowds
Didn't S_M say there is a 45 day consultation period?
