As reported, around half of the total of around 600 paid subscriptions were extended early within a week. Swans finance director Harald Stelzer had previously asked for help in a circular because the financial situation was tense due to outstanding payments from the main and title sponsor OCS. “In any case, the liquidity for this season has been clarified. We can now concentrate purely on sport,” says Stelzer. They are still in “constant communication” with OCS and also have a plan B if a solution is not found.
“We would certainly have to reduce our budget. Our goal is to win titles, so we would probably have to formulate that more carefully,” he says. But we are still hoping for help from the sponsor. And here’s to a win in the first home game of the play-offs once morest Oberwart (Sunday, 5:30 p.m.). Fans are encouraged to come dressed entirely in white.
