To Our Loyal Supporters,

We want to address you directly and honestly regarding the difficult news shared with our players.

It is with deep regret that the club has been unable to fulfill the final month’s wages. This is a painful and humbling position to be in, and we understand the concern and disappointment this will cause among our supporters — who have stood by us through every challenge.

We entered the final stretch of the season under a financial agreement made with our former manager — a commitment that played a key role in squad decisions and budget planning. Unfortunately, this promise was not upheld. After weeks of delay and repeated attempts to clarify the situation, it became clear that the financial support we relied upon would not materialize.

We fully recognize that this failure does not just affect the players — it affects the entire Lancing FC family, including you, our fans. You deserve transparency, stability, and a club that acts with integrity. While the current situation is not of our making, we take responsibility for how it has impacted our people.

We are working urgently to stabilise the club’s finances and rebuild trust. Your support means everything, and we ask for your continued belief as we navigate this difficult moment and begin the work of moving forward.

With sincerity and appreciation,

The Lancing FC Committee
