ONLY AT CARDIFF CITY

Sat Apr 24, 2010 9:59 am

Due to the recent flight problems because of the vlocanic ash, TG will not be at todays game as he failed to get a flight into the country yesterday.

Sam Hammam was unable to get into the country for the same reason.

There is now a delay on the investment as TG will not put anymore money in until he has bought the 49% of shares that we have said on here before. TG wished to meet the shareholders holding the shares in person and vice versa.

They plan to come into the country next week and there will be an announcement for an EGM after these meetings to propose the raising of new shares to make TG's shareholding upto 49%.

These are still good times but as we know from experience it will never be plain sailing at City and we continue on the rollercoaster ride that Sam started 10 years ago. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

season ticket sales will bring quite a bit of money I would imagine if Riddler sells the 5,000 he's offering ?? :ayatollah:

I think that we would get a final stay of execution if everything isn't sorted by 5th May - the judge will see that we have paid off a mutitude of other debts and will have sympathy with the unforseen circumstances of the volcano.

But this will be our very last chance.

Re: ONLY AT CARDIFF CITY

we haven't paid our debts
final stay of execution was in march...read the judge's comments again
we've already been in high court three times
may 5 will be the fourth visit
riddler knows this, hence the latest ticket scheme

Byron - I understand that TG has been paying off several of the clubs debts.

If things are not properly sorted with HMRC by 5th May the judge will take account of extenuating circumstances as they will be dealing with TG and his people and not riddles

croesybluebird
the only debt that matters on may 5 is the HMRC debt which was £1.9m in march
and by the time we reach may 5 it will probably be more than that...unless we have been paying our tax in the last couple of months
that's the only debt the judge is worried about as it's HMRC threatening us with a winding up order

if we don't pay this IN FULL then we're in big trouble

Thats whats happened Carl, but City fans dont panic. TG has put £1.1 million in so far so he is not going to run away. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

You are correct and our file was stamped 'final'

However, it is my belief that TG/Borley have been in contact with HMRC and they may have already received payments, so as the petitioner they could influence matter by making an application to dismiss or delay.

Unless we've been making our monthly payments to HMRC, which I doubt, the outstanding debt is probably nearer £3m now.

I have to say annis, that if it wasnt what i was reading here form you and Carl I'd be shitting myself about the next few weeks, without the Malaysians the only thing that would save us would be a win at Wembley in 3 weeks.

Tim I agree, if Borley hadnt been saying Keep the Faith and keeping me updated I would feel the same.
