RHYL FC’s managing director Adam Roche highlighted that “multiple options are being discussed” regarding the club’s future ahead of two crucial meetings in the coming days.

The club has received three investment offers from interested parties, which will be discussed at length during a video conference meeting tonight (Saturday) and on Wednesday, April 8.

These came after the club, which dates back to the 1870s, confirmed their future is under real threat and could see them liquidated if things are not resolved immediately.

One investor is currently more advanced due to the offer of assistance coming in earlier, and Roche stated the club are currently doing their “due diligence” regarding the issue.

The ground owner David Butters remains reluctant to enter discussions with the Lilies’ about a short-term solution to the problem and has not put any deferral in place despite the current climate.

Roche, said: “We have to guarantee 12 months rent to the owner. People forget that with the bad weather before the coronavirus we have only managed to play two games this year.

“This has been the perfect storm for us and with businesses facing an uncertain future we cannot guarantee they will be in a position to provide sponsorship.

“We wanted to pinpoint Wednesday’s meeting as the club cannot incur further debts that are going to further damage our future.

“The financial investment that has been offered would hint that it is something bigger than just sponsorship, but that is the chairman’s decision.”

Roche also outlined his disappointment with the Football Association of Wales’ response to their predicament and added: “I thought they would have been more forthcoming.”

Among the options being discussed at the two upcoming video meetings are what the board of directors can do to “avoid the inevitable”, and the formation of a new club.

The Lilywhites’ have received a ground share off from an unnamed club, which is not a feasible option given their long-term commitment already in place at the Educate Group Stadium.

“We have still got a four-year lease on the ground, so even if we are not playing there, we still have to pay the rent,” added Roche.

“This is something that has really handicapped us, and it has really been a horrendous month.”
