Two ways to look at this.

Ashley we were told put the cash up to allow the CBS to continue running. Since then we have gone on this amazing run so we have to be thankful on that note.

same time. all the nonsense behind the scenes with what seems favouritism shows how corrupt the parties involved are.

my personal opinion.Ashley is far shrewder than any other party, is that good or bad, only time will tell.

That will be why Richardson added himself as a director.

He gets to choose who, how and when somebody bought it after it went into Administration.

This is why I keep saying it's very likely he will still be around in some shape or form with a nice debt free stadium and he will "have the local authorities" or whatever the wording was used.

Are you really saying if that’s the case he will have authority of any type over the preferred bidder should he be successful tomorrow.

That suggests though that Ashley isn’t the buyer

Having thought about this it strikes me that the best thing that the Bondholders can do is try to enforce that the Trustee holds out for liquidation. The trustee has a fiduciary duty to the Bondholders. However, the Trustee seems to be some kind of US Bank and there are complex looking rules wrt US / U.K. bonds / trustees / laws.

Layman’s terms: it looks well dodgy. Why set up this way?

A liquidator will have a duty to (amongst other things):

a) Get the best return for creditors. At the moment the BH have some level of first charge - why else would the Administrator be going legal to remove it?

b) Investigate the events leading up to the liquidation to recover as much money as possible. It might be just horrible rumours to suggest that Richardson has cosied up to MA to ensure a pre-pack and less scrutiny. I would not suggest that those two gentlemen of unblemished reputation would ever act in any way other than 100% above board. An administrator, some have alleged - not I, can be “Tamed with fees such as exclusivity fees”. A liquidator is a different animal in my experience. They will realise as much as possible and will often go after high net worth individuals to see what they can get. This is under the guise of getting the most for the creditors but in reality the fees charged are enormous and the money goes to the liquidator and their “professional associates”.

If anyone has a better notion or if I’ve got the wrong thought process then of course chip in, this is a discussion forum.

Thoughts?


Secured creditors with a fixed charge

These are generally banks and other asset based lenders that hold a fixed charge over the asset in question – vehicles, for example, property, or land. The lender is entitled to recover possession of the asset on the insolvency of the company, with the fixed charge being registered with Companies House.

Grendel - do you know how much ccfc paid?
Do you know what the money was used for?
I’d feel that some of that money kept acl from admin while a pre pack deal is received and agreed

So ccfc are now funding the whole arena so someone else can buy it?
