Admin.

[KCNotts]

South Africans want us to go into admin to buy us for a pound. They have money to invest in the team but don't want to pay debts.

Hardy wants rid but wants cash for the club.

Alex May wants the land behind the kop for his hotel and couldn't care less about Notts County. That's why he wants Hardy to stay on. They would also prefer to buy Notts from admin.

Smurf is lurking behind the scenes in case the club goes into admin.

This could end in many different ways...but I can't see how we avoid administration. The Conference want assurances of our financial security.

What a terrible mess.

Truth?

I have a source.

This would explain the hold up. The Africans are still the best bet as they have a plan to take the club forward. But they are waiting for Hardy to give up on wanting a fee.

Admin is looking a certainty even though Hardy is still trying to negotiate a fee.

May consortium would be terrible news for the club...but with Hardy desperate to get rid, it could happen if they offer money.

That wont happen they don't have any money. As proven when it got to the part of their proposed purchase of Chesterfield and they could not pay anything missed 3 deadlines and the deal was pulled.

The only way these people would acquire Notts is if we went into admin.

“They have a plan to take the club forward”
Minus 12 points in non -league ??
I’d say this is the usual ‘ I’ve inside information ‘ Bollox

Next season would be a write-off. Although they would put money into the team and keep existing players on.

Is 12 points really a big price to pay for a financial fresh start?

Thinks its 10 points - "13.A.5 For the avoidance of doubt, where a Club is subject to more than one Insolvency Event (for example Administration followed by a Company Voluntary Arrangement), the Club shall only be deducted one set of 10 points, such deduction to apply with effect from the first Insolvency Event."

Can't see us avoiding admin.

You come on here spouting you have a source and willing to say who that source is? P1ss off you idiot

If they're offering 6 million you could look at it as paying £500,000 for each point saved in terms of avoiding the -12 deduction. It's more than just the points though, the club is going to be crippled for as long as it remains in admin, which presumably isn't going to be an overnight process.

Can somebody clarify what the punishment is exactly. Do we get a -12 deduction but stay in tier 5 or would we be demoted straight to level 6 and get hit with a -12 there, or is it level 6 but start on zero?..... or is that dependent on when we go into admin (pre or post fixtures for example).
