Question HMRC Winding Up Order

[Bob Cratchitt]

So it really does rest on Southend Council giving the go ahead for the altered plans or the HMRC agreeing to extend our stay of execution if they feel the plans may eventually get approved.

This is where I feel the transfer embargo posts really originates from, and that OP of that thread source or even the OP themselves misunderstood the full situation.

I wish that some Zoners would see that we are no mean safe and do need to look over our shoulder but we are not totally up ***** creek without a paddle. There is a glimmer of hope and with luck the situation will resolve itself.

Although I would like to see written assurances of where the money from the Stadium and ancillary income from the retail park are going.

Surely, there should be enough money in Geoffrey Kings Gaffe Box (Similar to Gordon Ramsay's Swear Box) to pay HMRC.

HMRC will close businesses down who can't pay their tax bill. I worked for such a company and we owed less than SUFC. I've read comments on this subject for weeks now and the fact remains that we don't really know whether the bill will be paid or not - Ron Martin is the only one who does despite all the people who claim to have inside knowledge including a car park attendant who works at Roots Hall!!! We just have to wait for the dreaded date and see what happens.

I am not a businessman but my bet is that a couple of VIP Johnstone's Paint Trophy final tickets slipped to the right people at HMRC and this all goes away.

If you are reading this Ron and you need a fixer then I am happy to oblige as long as there is a place for me on the open top bus and I can hold the trophy.

They are not relying on the plans being approved, nor are they relying on the funds coming in from Sainsburys.

I wish you (some zoners) could understand that the directors of the club are not praying and biting their nails in anticipation of the verdict. They have a contingency plan in place to avoid the club being wound up.

The club is quietly confident that everything will go according to plan, but if you believe that this is the 'be all and end all', then you are seriously misguided, scaremongering, or both.

The only concerns we should have is whether a new stadium, and everything that goes along with it, will generate enough income to help us become an established CCC team.

I bow down to your superior knowledge, just going on what Ron has said after the last hearing.

At the end of the day I hope they do have contingency plan, which does not involve selling off the squad or some other detrimental plan.

A chance for the SZFC to takeover the club ? Andee we have got our club-house and pitch !

I hope the contingency plan does not involve scratchcards.

A cracking idea Kenneth, I will break open the piggy bank and raid the back of the settee, hopefully this will be enough. If not we can just build a Camp Bling II and squat on the land.

Cyril that would be totally dependent if Ron you got Derren Brown on board, after all he can do anything.

In what form does this contingency plan take? The only thing i can think of is that they have a reserve somewhere to pay it. if this is the case why hasnt it been paid already?

Sssh! We're not supposed to talk about the warchest.

Or perhaps they have a loan lined up, but would prefer not to incur the interest charges while it is still possible to get the dosh off Sainsburys?

I cannot give specifics, but i will give you a clue.

Ron is a metal detector enthusiast.

Another loan?..Possibly charged at 20%...Easy money.

As said before many many many many times, Sainsbury's will not release any monies until after the 7th of October when the altered plans hopefully get rubber stamped by Southend Council,so to me that is the squeaky bum day.

so more than once then?:whistling:

That's the day after my (ahem)59th birthday and would be the best present that I or indeed any other SUFC supporter could possible receive.:clap:

Roll on Wednesday then.

Come on SBC, don't make this any harder than it already has been. We deserve a bit of good fortune!

Let's get this show on the road.

Not overly sure that Ian Joyce will have the necessary cash.
