After launching a campaign to raise £55,000, Clyde FC’s bosses believe the team is in “serious danger”. In order to lower their financial imbalance, the Scottish League Two team has raised £135,000, including a recent £15,000 donation from fans. But according to the Bully Wee, a legitimate last-minute attempt to raise money for the club has failed, necessitating the start of a public fundraising campaign. According to club leaders, the 1877-founded team, which plays at Hamilton Academical’s New Douglas Park, is in “serious danger.”
At a board meeting in August, the club’s financial situation was outlined, with the shortfall estimated at approximately £200,000. “This is the most difficult test the club has ever faced in our 147-year history,” stated Ian Fitzpatrick, director of marketing. The club no longer has the principal culprits behind this predicament, and the remaining board members have run for office at the upcoming AGM.
This demonstrates our dedication to supporters and our will to find a solution. In addition to running for office, directors who were co-opted throughout this fiasco are remaining loyal to the club they care about. “We still have a long way to go, but as a club supporter, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone who has contributed to lowering our deficit thus far.” “There is never a good time to ask for money, but this is definitely the worst,” said a message on the GoFundMe page. For a historic institution that has suffered severe damage, kindly donate what you can.
This is arguably the most difficult challenge that the Clyde Football Club has faced since its founding in 1877. Back the bully wee, please.
