I would hate for you to go through all this effort only to be stuck with another bill from them for the hard work you are putting in.

Donations from supporters should not be classed as profit.
What I would make sure of is that donations from supporters to help the club is not swallowed up by the revenue. I think a responsible person in charge of that amount of donated monies should be involved in the negotiations with the revenue and the club. The donated monies should be used as a bargaining tool if required to secure a deal.
If the Revenue do not agree to an extention of the deadline, the responsible person should be in a position to withdraw the offer of the donation.
I feel sure that the revenue will make a deal and grant an extention but make sure all uncrossed boxes are ticked before commitment is made and the money is handed over.
