As a responsible investor we will only invest into clubs that can afford a loan, however we understand that unexpected problems may occur which might affect your ability to repay the loan. We work on an open and transparent relationship with clubs, and will aim to support you when things don’t go as planned, for example:

• Financial support to help identify and manage cashflow issues.
• Operational support to help with day-to-day club operational problems.
• Marketing support to help identify the best methods to market to new members, or to help identify new partnerships.
• Discussing whether changing the loan terms would help, for example by delaying the start of capital repayments.

If you have any questions please get in touch.
