Under Weststand Posted 25 June, 2012 Share Posted 25 June, 2012 I see the FL want an amendment should the CVA go through. Could well be except massive points penalty & transfer embargo maybe?

Pretty soon they had 500 mates and acquaintances on board. All 500 have pledged to the PST. What's going to happen to the bid when they withdraw their pledges?

Or NO golden share! Maybe wishful thinking but I expect something like that from the FL. On second thoughts UWS, you might have a point. Birch's CVA proposal (2.4) says: One of the conditions of the offer is that the Club must propose a CVA that is approved by its creditors so that Portsmouth FC may be sold to the Purchaser without needing to rely on the Football Leagues Insolvency Policy Exceptional Circumstances Route and risk suffering another points deduction next season, which is the likely penalty under this route and which would ultimately increase the chances of relegation from League One to League Two of The Football League. No further points deduction will be applied if this Proposal is approved by the requisite majority of Preferential Creditors and Unsecured Creditors. That might be the bit the FL don't like.

If Liq not on side, more points penalties poss Good to see. Diluting a CVA with a further CVA is as bad as not agreeing a CVA back in 2010 and should rightly be punished with points deductions or refusing the golden share completely.

Or am I mistaken here, surely if they want the CVA approved, then they need Baker Tilly to vote for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trousers Posted 25 June, 2012 Share Posted 25 June, 2012 But what are they ? From what I can make out, I think the modifications were largely concerned with Portpin giving up any rights to exclusivity and to open the door for other bids to be considered, i.e. The Trust. I'm guessing Portpin were looking for some kind of exclusivity going forward in the original CVA wording....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trousers Posted 25 June, 2012 Share Posted 25 June, 2012 I'm slightly confused by the outcome.....one minute Baker Tilly (representing OldCo and original creditors) seemed to be kicking up a fuss about CVA2 and yet, before you can say "turkeys voting for Christmas" they have approved Portpin's 2p in the £ CVA offer (albeit with the caveat that they can switch to approving a different CVA if one was to come along in the next 28 days). So....bottom line....all creditors are 'happy' to take 2p in the £ (which is 20p of the original £) regardless of what happens next.... Sigh....

trousers Posted 25 June, 2012 Share Posted 25 June, 2012 I was assuming one of the modifications must be to placate them (Tilly baker)? Sounds likely. But all of which means that if Baker Tilly are 'happy' with CVA2 then that removes any likelihood of further points reductions as, techically, CVA1 will still be serviced (albeit in a modified/reduced form) out of CVA2.
