Dalek2003 Posted 16 February, 2012 Share Posted 16 February, 2012 Good thinking, they could meet their new owner there too! Surely, they could borrow a few spare bedrooms for the night, should they put out an appeal. Having said that, if they get up early they can always get there on time. If they look on google they can find some roads to park on were they don't need to pay for a ticket and walk the last bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think they will go bust, but it would really shake the football league. There has to be someone who genuinely does go bust, just unfortunate for them that they will be the first. Put it this way, without Marcus I am sure we would have gone and I can't remember many words of comfort from them. I personally, feel sorry for the few decent ones, and there are one or two.

stevegrant Posted 16 February, 2012 Share Posted 16 February, 2012 I see Appleton's fallen into the "it's not fair on everyone else if we've got a depleted squad, so we should be allowed to sign loads more loan players" trap. We’re getting to the stage where we’re not going to be competitive to the detriment of the division. I wouldn't say that's to the detriment of the division, I'd imagine the likes of Coventry, Doncaster, Nottingham Forest and Millwall will be quite happy to see a limbs-nearly-falling-off starting lineup for the rest of the season.

There's no reason under the current rules for them to do so under current FL rules. Its happened in other leagues (like Dundee I think?) but the FL would have to rewrite their rulebook for multiple admins in so many years. They have history for doing so but under the current people I really can't see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under Weststand Posted 16 February, 2012 Share Posted 16 February, 2012 So I can't find any news on their bank account being unfrozen. Did they even bother to try?

Bad news for the Skates as he knows the case background and could therefore be receptive to either rejecting the administration application entirely or any HMRC challenge to Andronikou's appointment. Technically of course they are different companies from the last time he came into contact with PFC but Justice Norris is unlikely to be so naive as to know that to all intents and purposes they are the same.
