Phoenix Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 BREAKING - Hinckley United wound up in High Court Oct 7 2013 By Emma Ray HINCKLEY United was officially wound up in the High Court in Birmingham this morning. The club was put out of existence at the hearing, ending months of speculation on its future. A statement on the club website said: "Further to the winding up petition issued by the Downes Executive Pension Fund against Hinckley United Football Club Limited, the directors attended the court hearing at Birmingham today where the winding up petition was granted. "The board would like to thank its supporters, sponsors and shareholders for their support in these sad and difficult times. "There will be a further statement later today." Looks like the Downes have been doing a 'Robert Maxwell' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 An earlier quote Leicestershire based Hinckley United are on the brink of extinction after almost 100 years in existence. The club is believed to owe in the region of £200,000 and liquidation looks the likliest outcome. Pity about the stadium which they built about 5 years ago.

EastKentRam Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 http://www.hinckleyunitedfc.co.uk/index.html Love that. 'Proud to have been average' Always a sad day, knowing fellow football fans have lost their club makes me sad. Even more so at non league, cos they're the real die hards.

archram Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I find it so sad that football has come to this - that a local club goes under for the want of less than some players earn in a week . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
