CP on X confirmed the adjournment

 

[Smiffy]

Assuming the adjournment is exactly six weeks. We will return to the Rolls Building on Weds 26th June.

If the sale hasn't gone through by then, we are in big trouble not just with creditors, but the league I would assume. Who might be getting itchy trigger fingers again...

Can we sign someone now please? Need some excitement over the next 6 weeks before more doom and gloom.

So what did Martin tell the judge to get this (final?) adjournment?

Interestingly, LS has now removed the two law firms bit...

[Linda Loan Shark]

So we have 6 weeks to survive. This is probably our last chance so lets go and smash it. UTB

Unfortunately I think we will be back in court again in 6 weeks. The council just seems to be dragging it’s heels and the is coming up short of the necessary paperwork.

I think the recent local elections have had a far bigger impact on proceedings than was hoped.

 

[Shrimper]

If we're back in June then we're buggered I reckon

 

[Holy Joe]

I think the recent local elections have had a far bigger impact on proceedings than was hoped.

In what way?

Right it's now down to the council to call a full council meeting And get the mess they have created by agreeing to back the club Then just like them change there minds and leave the club in the doldrums.

No it isn’t.

As has been patiently explained on a number of occasions the last meeting delegated it to officers so a further meeting won’t be required.

The reason it can’t be agreed yet is because the council were still waiting for documents from Ron Martin. It’s possible that those have since been provided since the last update but I wouldn’t be holding my breath.

Even if the Council agree it still needs approval from CBRE who are dragging their feet (possibly as they are also awaiting documents).

Not sure you can blame the council for the mess.

Stewart’s Law sounds like one of those populist laws that come into being after something horrible happens to the person in question.

I am hoping there won’t be a Mad Cyril’s law or even worse Mad Cyril’s disease.

I think Stewart's Law sounds like a TV drama.

Just how much time do you have on your hands these days?

Literally a two minute task

Episode 8: "Aftermath" With Martin behind bars, Stewart & Associates deal with the fallout of their victory. They attract new clients eager for justice in the wake of Martin's downfall and prepare for new challenges.

This would be enough to make the series compulsory viewing.
