Matt,
We aren't losing £200k every month its about £100k and Dave Allen is owed £5.5mill by the club. ASLeisure loaned the club the money to pay off the council. That just so happened to remove the only charge held on the ground which was in the name of Chesterfield Borough Council leaving Dave Allen conveniently lord and master of everything.
Simple facts are that with our current wage bill we need average gates of 7000 to break even. This season we have had nothing like that and despite his best efforts DW hasn't been able to offload our big money earners because nobody wants them. Evans and Gbolly will probably go for bog all and whilst fans are boycotting games the situation will just get worse. Until we get rid of the crap at the end of the season things wont improve. However if we go into admin the player contracts could become nul and void...........................

Still £100k too much. We weren't getting 7000 when we got into the playoffs under Cook. Evans and Gboly will go for a fee but it won't be a lot and because other clubs know that Chesterfield is in financial difficulty they will offer peanuts and think we will have to accept as we are desperate, which we are! I think it looks certain we will be nailed on for relegation now. If we go into admin the players are allowed to walk after a certain time period if they aren't getting paid which means we could see the youth team playing.
