Highest bidder

[RoyMac5]

Only vaguely interesting point from that pile of obnoxious EFL ********:

"For the avoidance of any doubt the EFL is requesting the attendance of Administrators and the following stakeholders to participate: the current highest bidder(s), Middlesbrough FC, Wycombe Wanderers FC, Mel Morris, MSD Partners and HMRC."

Will we get to see some bidders in attendance?

Who knows Macca. I am exhausted with the whole shabby saga….

I doubt you will get Morris in there. He’s left us without a paddle. I think liquidation is likely now. I wonder if another club will set up if not, I’ll be at a loose end at weekends. I feel a bit sick really.

I’d be surprised if Q take it down the arbitration route. The lesser cost is offset by the far higher risk associated with the EFL not being impartial. We’d never get a result in our favour through arbitration so no point bothering. High Court route is far more likely now they’ve opened up that possibility for us.

Again, bidders are not in control of dcfc, quantuma are.

A preffered bidder with significant investment in the the club (but not yet finalised) I could see.

Effectivly, the EFLs possition is a settlement must be reached with WW/MFC (which convieniently gets the efl off the hook for it's handling of things).

No

High Court is the only option.

MM & MSD have no bearing on DCFC admin. They own (or hold the reins) on PPS, which is neither owned by DCFC or has any official connection with the administration dealings (although it may crop up in separate takeover talks). So no place at the table for either of them. 
MFC & WWFC are not currently owed any monies by DCFC and are not on the official creditors list. So no place at the table for either of them. 
EFL appear not to have invited themselves and clearly wish to be seen as having no say in the  dealings, so no place at the table for them. 
That leaves Q, HMRC, and remaining creditors. That/Those meeting(s) were presumably completed long ago, so no need to drag extra chairs and a camping table in. 

All told, that just leaves Q. 
I see no meeting, no talks, and no negotiations.

Agreed, high court is the only option where Q / DCFC might actually get a fair and unbiased process.

[Beetle]

The hmrc's only option of getting paid is if we take the EFL to court. It's going to court and I need to know the date as either way I'll be needing to book the next day off work...

How long does it take to get cases to the High Court?
