If Tillion has gone under (or is on the verge of it) resulting in the appointment on the LPA Receiver then the Administrator would need to battle it out with them to get something from the sale to whoever ends up with BV. The only saving grace is that WTRLFC Ltd retained a legal charge over the ground, but this ranks behind the charge that Bank of Ireland have got.

Jese this is so depressing it kills me, it really does....surely the RFL need to see what is happening....We cannot compete in superleague if they allow this to carry on - we will be slaughtered...

The winding up petition that SRW paid off was served in July 2010. There was little point in paying the amount that subsequently became due when HMRC was trying to shut us down for what was already outstanding (not that the club had the money to pay it anyway) so by the time SRW paid off the £164k we'd run up a further £350k or so that was going to be covered by the payment plan that HMRC then ripped up.

The rest is what subsequently accrued from November to January. £500k is probably a bit on the high side, but it will definitely be above £400k.

Fits with their bigger plans though. No chance we can make them look silly when licence time comes around is there with a team full of young lads (most of whom aren't physically ready for week in week out SL)

No turning back now, might aswell sell the lot, just play kids for the rest of the season and prepare for life in the Championship.

If i had a young lad down there i'd have him away, you can't play kids week in week out in SL, madness, not good for the game and certainly not good for them.

Too true Al.

i agree..some of these lads could have their careers ruined by injury that they could pick up!

Absolutely right, it's not fair to them and won't do them any good at all

Does anyone have a clue what kind Mr Glover has done with the administrators. Looks like a we will take what we want for now and give you what's left. I hope this guy has not agreed a fee and then all assets are being taken away. Surely you can't agree a sale and then change the terms of it. Some people will probably say steady on here but if it was me and they started removing assets before completing a deal i would be telling them to do one.

If you want to really know what can happen read the bottom section of this en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crawley_Town_F_C unfortunately note that even when an agreement is put in place the Crown will still chase old debts!

Does that link work for everyone else? Interesting point you make about HMRC. Makes you wonder how much was offered for the club in the first place, and what we can expect to see in the future.

Try now, there was an extra full stop at the end of the link!

It reads as if it was due to the funny dealings of the new owner, but not for sure, which makes you wonder how hard they will chase the old debt unless the club is wound up!

Also note regarding the family been owed money from the club during the administration - sound familiar to anyone? Reads exactly like our case at the moment!

Light at the end of the tunnel though, they are doing the best the club have ever done and will be making a fortune from this weekends game, so it can be done!

"Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name."

Sorry mate.

Now it works lol too many full stops when there should not be

OK, I'm reading it, but I aint liking it...

and I also don't see quite how it fits our situation, apart from the fact that both clubs went bust.

Ted has shafted this club good and proper. He should be made to pay.



As for the players in addition to those you mention who will be leaving over the the next week or so there could well be at least a couple more first-teamers going yet as well as a couple of the prized youngsters.

Would be amazed if someone with a quota spot didn't want Morro.

Can't see us holding on to Morrison. He'd walk straight in to quite a few teams.

You should rephrase that, he would walk into any team i reckon.

anyone in for matty yet

Even if they did, we have plenty of cover at Fullback due to Kear looking into the future.

I just feel that the crown and the debt to the new owners reads just like our situation

The RFL won't allow it they are worried we would actually be a better side if that happened
