Aye, he did Palace last season and Luton in 2007 too, probably more.
I'm sure someone on PASOTI has done a run through of all the bizarre twists and turns, it'd make a nosebleed of a read, but for me ALL credibility was lost here..........
A last minute 'mystery consortium' secures the CVA and is given preferred bidder status by Guilfoyle. He denies any knowledge of who is involved.
Rightly fans are up in arms because it could be a buy-back consortium of the muppets who got us into adminsitration in the first place.
"it's OK" says Brendan, "they're nothing to do with the former owners".
"erm, excuse me?" say the fans, "how exactly can you know who it isn't if you don't know who it is"?.
"shit" says Brendan (after a lot of squirming) "I did know who it was but I was advised to say that I didn't by my legal advisor".
WTF?, legally sanctioned lying?.
You'll love this though, the insolvency industry regulator is a bodycalled the insolvency practitioners association (IPA isn't just a good pint it seems). Head of ethics at the IPA...........a certain Mr. Brendan Guilfoyle!.
You couldn't make it up.
Hi guys,
Argyle fan here in peace.
As you may know, our club is still in administration as the season starts. The administrator picked his preferred bidder many weeks ago but as yet that bidder has not completed the deal, as deadlines have apparently repeatedly been extended. The bidder remains anonymous, but seeks to take ownership of the ground for development purposes while selling the club to Peter Ridsdale for £1.
The real danger is that the administrator becomes liable for staff wages this week - which have not been paid in full for several months - and that they will seek to liquidate the club to recoup their own costs rather than turn to an alternative buyer, James Brent, who is waiting in the wings, who has been talking positively to the Argyle Fans Trust, and who is seeking to negotiate the sale of the stadium to the Council on a community-based initiative.
Please consider signing our petition to the administrator to adopt the alternative bid.
I can't post a link to the petition here as I'm a new poster, but just Google 'dont-liquidate-pafc-pa' and it's the top hit. Maybe a mod can edit in the link?
Many thanks, and good luck this season in your new ground with former greens Craig Noone and Ashley Barnes. It would be great to see you challenging at the top end!
