That may just pay off HMRC and avoid them being wound up for unpaid tax. It probably wouldn`t stop admin though as that will depend on their other creditors and what they want to do. HMRC have no interest in them going into admin as they would only get 10p in the pound or something like everyone else - they would prefer they were wound up and the assets sold as, being a preferential creditor, they would get paid in full before anyone else. If they are wound up, you`re looking at a phoenix club in the Manchester & District league or something like that. I expect them to pay off HMRC and then go into admin.
Does anyone know what the cut off point for a points deduction in any season is? I know they did introduce one after Leeds played the system that time and took the points deduction after they were already relegated. There now have to be a certain amount of games left for it to be applied in the current season, if there aren`t enough left, they get it next season.
