The Club Will Be Here Next Season Says Keyte


Hereford United chairman David Keyte has said that despite the current financial problems the club will be here next year. And is he very hopeful that a new investor will soon will confirmed.

"The club will be here," Keyte told Bulls Player.

"We've been talking to a potential investor for the last four months.

"We thought the money would have been into the club about ten days ago but there have been some banking issues and so on. So it hasn't quite arrived."

The Players and Staff haven't received their full wages for March. On top of that because the club is in the top eight the players are also owed a bonus.

"As a board we've put in £50/60K per month since January. We are getting through the months but the trading position is nowhere near straight. With the crowds dropping it has just added to the problem."

Keyte then revealed more details about the potential investor.

"It will be long-standing if it comes through, as and when it comes through.

"That would put us right for the next couple of seasons.

"So people need not think about the football club folding. That's not the situation at all.

"There's a lot of positive exciting developments really with the ground and so on.

"We've waited nearly three years since I've been involved but the future is bright.

"We've just got to get through this season which we knew would be difficult."
