Mick saying on Twitter that proposed takeover won't be ratified today or even imminently as [i'the size of the creditor's list is causing huge concerns'[/i

Take for what you will, but it does back up what is filtering out on here and in other places.

Not looking good

Does that not remind you of when Caisley and gang swept in to get rid of Hood. Then looked at all the hidden debt and thought "bugger that!". I'm thinking Admin 4 and if I'm pleasantly surprised and we stay afloat that'll be great.

If Mick is 100% right, and sometimes that can be a big 'if' then that's consistent with what we've heard.

So, the latest and now expanded betting odds have been revised:

a) Likelihood of new consortium taking over a formal shareholder interest in the club - 40/60, and
b) Likelihood that the club will be in administration before Xmas - 60/40.
c) Likelihood that a nestegg consortium may ultimately take an interest - ??

Does anyone really have the desire to continue past admin 4 if it happens?

I’ve never given up, had a season ticket every year and will be getting one next year despite the ground change.

But admin 4 I fear will drop our crowds to below 1000, if we even survive.

... and although this thread shouldn't be about a petty points scoring system, here's a couple of other big picture things that one of our consortium and alleged forum trolls (Madam Belcki) got right:

1) Chalmers' credibilty (the pension scandal speaks for itself), and
2) Not all of the players were covered by a fit for purpose medical insurance provision as they should be according to the RFL's - sadly often ignored - rules.

At this time we wouldn't buy a season ticket, even if it were paid for by a credit card, and gift wrapped in Ralph and Nigel's annual travel expense accounts.

Take over not happening today according to Mick!! Admin again at a guess

I suppose if you throw enough e at the wall, some will stick.

No, I'm fairly certain that'll be me out. I've certainly no desire to waste my time and money watching a struggling team fighting yet another points deduction.
I've had enough of it. Sadly I think administration looks the most likely outcome.

A little clue, see if you can work it out for yourself: entering a CVA is classed an 'insolvency event'.
