The 95-year-old Kilburn football and cricket club is launching a desperate fight to survive against mounting debts to council, AGL and the Australian Tax Office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKilburn faces a combined debt in excess of $120,000. The club is going to hold an open meeting this Sunday at the club at 10am in a last ditch attempt to raise finances and also moral support.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast Monday there was a pretty dire and bleak members meeting where the club\u2019s management brought everybody up to speed with how bad things now are, and they\u2019re now going out to the public seeking wider help. The Port Adelaide Enfield Council has given the club an extension but it\u2019s only one month to financially restructure\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFingers crossed that they can find a way forward here. It will be a big story I think when it happens on Sunday\u2026 there\u2019s hundreds of people who are registered players and supporters. Apparently on Saturdays for the local Aussie Afghans out there they get 500 people to the kids soccer games.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/cms.fiveaa.com.au\/sport\/Brownlow-Medallist-Lifts-The-Lid-On-Ross-Lyon-s-Time-At-Freo\">BROWNLOW MEDALLIST LIFTS THE LID ON ROSS LYON\u2019S TIME AT FREO<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>LISTEN:<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The almost 100-year-old Kilburn football and cricket club is facing closure ahead of a \u201clast ditch\u201d attempt to save the club at a public meeting this Sunday, reports David Penberthy.
