Oh dear oh dear

 

[EnglandShrimper]

I guess this is a new one then... WOW

 

[Cricko]

Its against Martin Dawn though, we can only hope it is and not the club.

Actually @Napster do any MD companies still exist?

 

[Mark Corrigan]

Harry Phillips looks very unimpressed

 

[rararblue]

Looks like this one is against Ron Martin/Martin Dawn, rather than the club?

 

[Clarky176]

If this debt is against Martin Dawn, not the club, as the paper details, it’s debt the Martin’s will need to pay not the Consortium. Could this add more pressure on Ron specifically rather than the Consortium?

 

[Napster]

Martin Dawn still exists although there is an active proposal to strike off

Thats my thinking , he needs to get this deal done and sell the land with PP to survive.

I'm no expert with any of this but this one does appear to be aimed directly at Ron Martin, and/or Martin Dawn. Not sure if they can go after the club for this? Christ how does that man sleep at night. Even more amazing is that any firms ever do any business with him, surely they must know they'll never get paid. Either way, you would imagine COSU would have been aware of this had it been a debt the club itself was liable for. Lets hope it isn't.

 

[overseas shrimper]

If this is a Martin debt and doesn't affect the club, it could be a good thing.

 

[AlfaShrimper]

On maybe a more positive note. Water being connected today to the new training ground

 

[Flinty]

Another business he will wind up and knock the debtors

 

[Snowy]

How many bills have simply gone unpaid over the years?
Staggering the Rat can get away with it, but do feel like and has been mentioned above that he is at the last chance saloon as no one will want to do anything for him.

 

[meerkat54]

What else does have hiding in his murky waters. I bet it won’t be the last.

 

[defender05]

Is this on top of the money they are claiming from the club?

 

[Mr Browns Ghost]

Houses at roothall will not be going ahead .Thats why they are shifting them to fossetts

Oooh it will be just not for Ron

 

[Cricko]

Is this on top of the money they are claiming from the club?

Yes.

 

[in the know]

Another large unpaid debt appears ... And RM is supposedly paying for the due dilligence! I just hope any outstanding dd has been paid for up front or some arrangement made.
Every time something like this crops up, it makes you feel less convinced he gives or ever gave a shxt about sufc surviving.

What a ****
