Official Match Thread HMRC v Southend United Winding Up Order

[hlane17]

Sounds like Ron has had to leg it from an angry mob

Good hope he **** himself. Not so comfortable when it's face to face is it.

 

[overseas shrimper]

No sign of Plan B. He's got to accept Kimura.

If Kimura are good for their word, their deal is no longer on the table though. And in any case, RM doesn't want to accept their offer.

 

[Whispering Bob]

So is this Ron saying, over to you Kimura you have another 42 days to meet my demands?

....or another 42 days to halt that 'unnecessary' Due Diligence.

 

[BlueArmy1906]

so how many will be at the Oldham game, if people are not buying season tickets due to RM then will the be buying match day tickets?

Not a chance will I be stepping into Roots Hall until this mess is sorted and that rat is gone. Whilst it is a catch-22; fewer feet in the door = less money = staff will likely go unpaid, I think the only way to protest is with our feet and boycotting the games. I will still go to away games (provided we still have a club in the NL come August) but the thought of lining that cu*ts pocket whilst he drags us through the mud makes me sick. And although there is a part of me that feels guilty, I doubt the staff would get paid with matchday income anyway.

I don't think Ron cares about the people protesting outside his house (I applaud all that do though, of course). I think in some sick twisted way he likely enjoys it. I think the only and best way is to hurt him where it really hurts, his pockets. But enough is enough now. I will be staying away for the foreseeable. As much as it hurts to say that, and having been a season ticket holder for several years, I simply must put my morals and values above it.

So, now the NDA has expired with their offer, will we here from Kimura?

But not motivated enough to do so by now. He's only motivated to do so on his terms, not what's best for the club.

However, if he really mentioned Kimura then that's a step in the right direction as it at least means he's finally acknowledged their existence, and that there isn't anyone else.

 

[Big Bad Barry Corr]

Like I said, - reminiscent of the last days of Nazi Germany. Just letting things burn to the ground until there is nothing left but the smouldering ashes and glowing embers of a misguided ideal destroyed by one man’s deluded ego

Martin is a complete and utter **** - end of

Me and my 3 mates who all go have said the same.

As soon as new ownership is in place and Ron has gone. I'll be in the queue to buy my season card.

Have to see what Kev and Co do , do they stay or do they go .

 

[Medway Blue]

That was a very stumbling and unimpressive performance by Mr. Martin. Arguing just because he disagreed with the HMRC barrister's view that its speculative to be waiting on a 3rd party (a buyer) was idiotic. Judge told him, in a more polite way, to shut up. Pick your battles.

What is it that Ron is holding out for?.

 

[sufcnum1]

If we are to survive this whole saga. The repair job to our reputation is going to be a real struggle. Sponsorship suppliers players and staff. Absolutely ridiculous, I'm not financially connected and I hate it

 

[Dutch Branch]

Debt has gone from 900k to 300k hasnt it?

42 day adjournment, sale won't be complete before 42 days debt £335k of which £275k still os.

That’s what I’ve been told is the current state of play.

Or he could be trying to get out of court alive and is saying things to try and calm hostilities.

And in other news....

 

[londonblue]

He escaped down the toilet.

That's how this sentence deserves to read.

 

[shrimpled]

I suspect the NDA will remain in place for perpetuity.

 

[wiggy]

Why would they stay...had enough of this for a year and there CV means they will get offers!

 

[Mad Cyril]

A hero.

 

[Tommy2holes]

So has Tom Lawrence given a statement.

Anyone have any footage of Ron leaving and getting abused. That will give me some light relief and enjoyment at least.
