"Nope, now answer mine - Is the club better off as a result of entering administration?"
Simple answer is No However the answer must be tempered with precendence. No other CVA from any other club has been challenged? No other new company has had their "Golden Sahre" withheld by the FL So all things being equal, and the rules hadnt changed, then the answer would have been YES ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Cundell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, July 13, 2007 9:32 AM Subject: Re: [LU] LU:Today's lesson Sean Scribe wrote: > > What exactly did the MP's do that was wrong? > They pressured HMRC to challenge the CVA. That's why we're now running the risk of having no football club. You are misdirecting your ire, putting the club into administration always ran the risk that we would not come out the other side. Why do you think neither Trevor Birch nor Gerald Krasner chose to go down that route? > Seriously, we were almost out of the woods when the MPs started their mischief-making. Sorry Sean but that is absolute bollox, did you really think that Bates would 'get away' with paying THE real major credit 1p in the £? Do you really believe yourself that the HMRC would not have challenged the CVA whether or not anyone had asked an awkward question? HMRC would have been negligent if they hadn't. The challenge was weeks in the planning not an overnight kneejerk reaction to some MP's questions. > I asked a question on the list a few days ago I don't think anyone answered, so I'll ask it again: Is the club now better off as a result of the three "Leeds fan" MPs successfully sabotaging the CVA? Nope, now answer mine - Is the club better off as a result of entering administration? > I don't believe it is. Others may differ. But it does appear that for some people, sabotaging Leeds' season - and even our very existence - is worth it if they can give Bates a bloody nose in the process. I just don't agree. I don't trust Bates as far as I can spit, but looking around the League, saints seem in rather short supply in club boardrooms these days. I am tired of all the court cases and legal mumbo-jumbo. I want to start winning football matches again. Football isn't fun if you're not winning (which means it hasn't been that much fun most of the last 32 years). Sean, again you are misdirecting your ire, whose at fault for all the court cases and legal mumbo jumbo? Whose conscious choice was it to take the club down this route? Who has been around long enough to know exactly how vindictive the HMRC can be? Who offered 1p in the £ and threatened to liquidate the club if anyone dared to accept a higher offer? I asked this question before and everyone chose to ignore it: - What if the directors of Forward Sports Fund are Kim Jong-Il/Robert Mugabe/Than Shwe is that ok as long as we get a decent pre-season?
