Let's hope it is unlikely, eh?

Nice of you to highlight four words while ignoring the previous 37.

Now I'm going to quote PWKH........... "The fact is that ACL have started a process that could lead to Administration."
Now!...When I went to school, Liquidation wasn't spelled...ADMINISTRATION!;)

What about the following sentence, those 23 little words you decided not to quote in big bold type? What is the final word of that sentence?

Oh, that paragraph from PWKH has gotta hurt. You got served big time there, I think. :claping hands:

That's right, you keep on ignoring it and it will go away. :facepalm:

Yes, I read those words. I wanted you to acknowledge the second sentence, but you won't, because you know you've made a fool of yourself. Again. Nice one.:p

@ Torchy....

Pity YOU failed to recognise the fourteen words highlighted in my last post eh?;)

The one and only fact here is....ACL started a process for Administration, which is clarified by PWKH....Hence, the 18 years old words come into play...End of!;)

That is not what I said. The fact is that ACL have started a process that could lead to Administration. Should no buyer be found, or should the secured creditors resist every attempt of an Administrator then it would probably lead to liquidation. That is usually unlikely. I agree with Torch and others that in this case where the secured creditor is Sisu that it is much more likely. But please read back when you think that you are quoting me to see that you actually are...

My honourable friend,

"The Board of ACL has already issued a Statutory Demand for payment, the deadline for which has long since passed, and is now looking at its legal options. These legal options include petitioning the courts to grant an order to wind up CCFC and starting off the process of placing the Club into compulsory liquidation."

Your words, sir. Just to confirm, you are not suffering from amnesia, sir?

Yes, administration. But, if a buyer can't be found then it would "probably lead to liquidation". I'm not saying it will, PWKH is not saying it will and you are not saying it will, but it a possibility. So, (keep up with me here) to sum up ACLs action could in the worse possible case lead to liquidation which is the point I've been trying to make for the last goodness knows how many pages!

The opening gambit of a 18 years old "Dickhead"......Quote....I think you're living prove that footballers are generally 'not bright'. Without being disrespectful...
It doesn't say much for Rugby players!....Does it?:whistle::whistle::claping hands::claping hands::claping hands:

Generally, Rugby players are more intelligent than footballers, even after losing billions of brain cells... I don't think you buck the trend to be brutally honest.

Again....there are some on here who clearly have no sense or understanding of the legal process.

ACL's actions in bringing their petition to court is to find the club insolvent (CCFC) and in doing would lead to the appointment of an Administrator.

They would run the club while trying to find a buyer. Meantime the Football League will convene and decide what action to take under their rules. This is likely to happen at a later date beyond 28th March (their deadline day) and certainly if the hearing is appealed by CCFC we will almost certainly be looking at a points deduction next season. How large that deduction becomes depends on a CVA and other factors they will consider.

Mean time if the administrator fails and as SISU are it's largest debt holders, they may well find avenues difficult, we could end up being placed into liquidation.
That sums up what might happen because of ACL's actions. Those are facts.

As for CCFC? Well SISU hold the purse strings that keep them alive. They could end this immediately by agreeing payment of the debt.
They live on to fight another day and seek further talks on trying to get additional revenue streams from the Ricoh.

IF any new owner came in they too would certainly want a lower rent, access to more revenue streams and some guarantee of a share in the Ricoh at the very least.

I suspect if we have an investor like the Texan fella whispered about he will be seeking some ownership of the stadium, perhaps complete ownership and for sure the rights to development around the site. That is the key for them I would have thought. He will have to run and operate a football team in the process and the more successful he makes them the better for him. To do that he will want the site development and a slice (if not all) of the Ricoh. Buying the football club from administrators would be a cheaper option than from SISU. that's only one part of his deal. He won't do it though without that cake slice. For the moment he is not any part of what's going on and we must concentrate on the main facts stated above and not lose sight of that with this alarming sentiment about a Texan. If ACL are backing this as their main card it's a very big risk indeed unless they have already got an agreement in principal and if they have, that poses legal problems for them from SISU. So don't think they will have.

A bit slow tonight aren't we SBTAYLOR?
As I pointed out last night....ACL are looking at it's legal options(More than one)....Now I'll say this slowly, just for you....These legal options include an order to "wind up" CCFC. This option is one of a few...Still with me?...ACL have in actual fact gone down the road of ADMINISTRATION...Let me know if that word is too big for you to comprehend, won't you!
Btw....I can't wait for the next instalment of a "Bollocking" from PWKH...any moment now! I would think! lmfao.:laugh::laugh::laugh:

Will you two stop bickering?

ACL have applied to the court for a hearing to try to get the club (CCFC) declared 'insolvent'.

Please understand the legal process step by step. You could read what I said above too...;)

There are no 'guarantees' of getting what you want in the courts.

Excellent summary , something tells me you may have to repeat this a few times !

In fairness I'm happy to have been corrected by PWKH with regards to them threatening liquidation albeit as an option rather than an inevitability as TF had said..and seems like you have a decent handle on the legalities....certainly more than I gave you credit for. Still think there is no comparison with the language being used with SISU using to my mind excessive inflamatory language which appears to have backfired on them big time. That was my original point...

Fair comment. My whole point was both sides have said that their relevant actions could lead to liquidation. Hopefully, it won't.

It's a direct quote from PWKH, and only you can turn it into an argument.

Bit hypocritical of you to criticise Torch, after all, you're becoming PWKH's spokeswoman (the way you bitch, one can only assume). Let him answer me, I've come out, with a direct quote from PWKH himself, posted on Sky Blues Talk, on the telegraph website as well, and he said he didn't say they started the process for 'compulsory liquidation' when in the quote that's what HE said. He's either U-turned, incorrect, or doesn't know what he's talking about, but the bottom line is this: there're not my words, but his own being used against him and ACL.

The key words are options and could.
You choose to ignore these words. I am not going to patronise you by giving you the dictionary definitions as I am sure you know full well what they mean. That you ignore them speaks volumes about the manner of your argument. I am sure that you are passionate in what you believe. For me, to have to distort, partially quote or to use other people's words out of context only destroys the argument and any respect I might have for the perpetrator.

Thanks PWKH. Exactly what I was trying to point out. The action (or inaction) on either side could lead to liquidation. None of us want that.

In the same way I suppose that voluntary liquidation by SISU was an option which they could have exercised?

Well aware, but it wasn't my argument, both ACL (you on SBT) and SISU have both threatened liquidation, but only 1 party gets criticised... Consideration bias at it's best.

Partially quote? I quoted the relevant bits, I weren't going to quote the whole thing was I? You can't even say you were misquoted because you posted on here and had the chance to amend any mistakes. It's what you said, in black and white, I'm not insinuating anything with what you've said, I've took it for what it is.

I'm a passionate supporter of CCFC, and at the minute, ACL have put the club 2nd, profit 1st and ACL's AND SISU's actions (or inactions) could lead to the club I support being liquidated.

Tim Fisher told the Guardian: "We are at a tipping point and insolvent liquidation cannot be reasonably avoided. They [ACL] need to re-enter negotiations pronto or we file. We'll have no option because there would not be reasonable probability of avoiding insolvency liquidation."

His words suggest to me Sisu saw no option but to liquidate CCFC unless ACL re-entered negotiations.
It could be argued that there were two other options other than liquidation when he said that: 1. ACL re-enter negotiations or 2. Sisu settles the rent dispute by accepting the last ACL offer. But the relationship between the two sides has broken down to such an extent that it seems nigh on impossible to see ACL countenancing 1 and Sisu countenancing 2 (and Mr Fisher ignores that option when speaking to the Guardian). That being so, are there any other options?

If not, then does the Sisu version as explained by Mr Fisher realistically allow for any other interpretation than liquidation is coming?
But ACL found another option: Administration, which could lead to liquidation, but also offers a chance of avoiding liquidation.

What a load of "Tosh" You were arguing that ACL were forcing Liquidation on CCFC.
I said ACL were going down the route of Administration because SISU were threatening Liquidation. I also said ACL were looking at all options (Which included Liquidation) but chose ADMINISTRATION. I would say you might make a good solicitor, but you've got more "Twists and turns" than the Monaco Grand Prix Circuit!:facepalm:

I agree, but this could STILL lead to LIQUIDATION. I can't see why you fail to grasp that simple concept. No, it may not happen and let's hope it doesn't, but it's still a possibility.

@ Torchy.....
And I can't see why you fail to grasp where I say ACL chose ADMINISTRATION. If they wanted to, they could bury SISU and CCFC without trace.
That 14 letter word shows they don't want to do that to CCFC.
