Re: All staff including players at Wrexham AFC to be furloughed
Pretty grim but not entirely unsurprising given the current situation.
You have to think though as bad as it is there are going to be other clubs in a much worse situation than us at the moment. |

Re: All staff including players at Wrexham AFC to be furloughed
We'll be better off but the headline figure of being down £250,000 due to loss of match day revenue is pretty concerning.

Re: All staff including players at Wrexham AFC to be furloughed
I’m not sure it is that grim...
They’re using the schemes out there to protect the club long term. Effectively shutting down the club in the short term. It’s a sensible decision. As has been said, there will be clubs higher up in a worse position. Do we know what cash reserve we have? That would be my question. How much is there to pay the small amount of costs in the short term |

Re: All staff including players at Wrexham AFC to be furloughed
I am assuming player contracts run until the end of June. So the government will pick up the tab from now . We will then only have to pay a few players in contract from july onwards . How many non playing paid staff do we have? l

Re: All staff including players at Wrexham AFC to be furloughed
Glad the Board are again doing their job, distressing though it may be.
My 2 questions would be: Can you furlough contracted players? as opposed to salaried staff. Will the Board seek a deferment on, or reduction of, the £100k we pay Glyndwr University for the lease of the ground? Finally, we will have to be quite hard-nosed when it comes to renewing contracts. PS To help out our club, I will not seek any refund for my ST or extra tickets I had also bought. Not everyone will be able to follow suit, but I would urge those fans who can to put aside their distrust of the Trust, put the club first, and resolve the outstanding issues of accountability in due course. The whole country is currently in a bad place, as is our club. Let's not make it any worse than need be.

Re: All staff including players at Wrexham AFC to be furloughed
Are we early in making this announcement or have other clubs already stated similar? I have seen a couple, Barrow for instance, but very few others. surely most of the clubs in our league are going to have to take similar measures.
