"red letter day ??" - Page 13

A quick look at the cases scheduled for tomorrow morning shows that ASFC Ltd appears in a batch of 71 companies all to be wound up or otherwise between 10.30 and 11.00.

So, on average, our barrister will have just over 23 seconds to persuade Mr. Registrar Simmonds of the merits of another adjournment.

I don't wish to be a 'cynical geriatric', but it doesn't look briiliant.

However, while there's life there's hope; and if a lot of the other cases are undefended we might get a decent hearing . . .

Short answer would be me.

Believe me Dave I won’t look good in Tangerine and I pray that we get through this long enough for the current incumbents to resign and for the club to be sold to someone that can afford it. But I am full of doubt.

No offence meant or intended, but I do stand by my remarks!!........However I accept that yours were not directly aimed at the persons I thought they were

Pint?

There was no offence taken now or any other time. Stick you pint were the sun don’t shine cowboy…..I won’t settle for less than a crate….

My feelings toward the Khan/ASSF offer was one of discomfort and a belief that it was unworkable as well as unacceptable to the owners of the club, my thoughts haven’t changed and views have been exchanged between me and Mr. Khan.

But I implore him to step in now and save the face of Accrington and our club and I’ll do that on my knees if he wants.

Well I've kept off for a while to think and calm down a bit, I'm still not convinced we will get more time

I wonder if this still stands

As any 'Letters', Proclamations, Declamations, Half-Truths, Untruths, or Damned Lies, which are likely to emanate from those who were always the intended targets of this thread...are at the very best going to be a poor, ill-defined and sickly shade of Light Puce.....can I politely suggest that my thread has now run it's course, and should therefore be allowed to die a dignified death!.

Even a positive response from HMRC tomorrow will probably only carry a slight tint of Pale -Pink around it's edges !...If That !!.

My enthusiasm...and that of my dear old 'alter-ego' who still says 'What me Worry' is definately on the wane tonight...but we shall return !!

'ON STANLEY !!...ON!!,,,TO GREATER THINGS !!

ps...Spare a thought tonight for John Coleman and our great Team...who must be feeling really dismayed and down !!

Already doing it mate, not only could we lose a very good management team and squad but they have all got bills to pay like the rest of us, families to provied for etc.

Just hope someone from the club can tell jack barret exactly what happened and why they let it do it for a 2nd time.

Stanley must repay £308,000 to the taxman on Wednesday to avoid being wound up – and O’Neill is confident the bill will be paid tomorrow.
Speaking to the Lancashire Telegraph, O’Neill declared: “Yes we are going to beat it, of course we are going to make it.
“On a scale of one to 10, we are a nine now. We have one or two things coming in on Monday but at this stage we are happy with it (the state of fundraising).”
But O’Neill admits that it hasn’t been all plain sailing and added: “We had a bit of a let down on Friday. “I can’t mention names, but a guy promised us £25,000 and let us down, so we are a little bit short at the minute.
“But we have one or two things to come through on Monday. Ilyas Khan is not involved.”
When asked the timescale of the payback and whether O’Neill would be in the High Court on Wednesday, he said: “I don’t want to go (to London). All the bank transfer will be done on Tuesday.
“A few fans have said they are not sleeping. Let me do the not sleeping.”

Ilyas Khan is not involved is he ???? The DON had better let him be involved later today............

Let me do the not sleeping ??????????? it is 1:15am and I and by the looks of it lots of other fans are not sleeping tonight thanks you LIAR...
