I'm no expert, but I think you've gone and put the famous blue and white quarters round the wrong way. Unless of course to keep the laundry bill down, they wear the quarters on one side one week and then wear the same shirts inside out the week after. Miah or In The Net will be able to tell us.

How can that be us because according to them the run started before we existed. The amazing thing about that post is it starts with us in a higher division than they have EVER managed and finishes with us in a division above the lowest they have slipped to.

When you say loophole, you do mean acting within the law, don't you? Somewhat like acting within the law to acquire a piece of real estate worth £6m, (GDs words) for £2m and £10k.

As is happened, it turned out to be nearly another 20 years before they could steal a ground. In fairness, the ground wasn’t quite so bad back then..!

The key difference between us and them is voluntary liquidation arises where there's hope that an element of the enterprise might successfully survive if restructured. Often creditors will, in part, take settlement of future interest in the new business. In their case it's hopeless, there is no future. There is no market in second hand tents or soiled carpets and curtains. Floodplain swamp in Avonmouth is ten a penny and good only for conservationists seeking refuge for reptiles. Somewhat apt methinks.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stark realisation of just how tinpot they are (if it was needed!) ”We should put a roof over the away end” My god! Welcome to 1995..! Although, of course, it is merely a suggestion and not something that is likely to happen immediately, so they can remain safe in the knowledge that the 21st century is still some way away from catching up with them yet..!
