OK following on from Alans post.
In 15 years in business, I have issued 4 Winding Up Petitions against our debtors, and have liquidated only one.
The other 3 scenarios was a jolt to focus their minds and grasp the nettle so to speak, we worked with the companies involved and , over a 3 year period realised 70% of our debt.
To have a company issued with this would not only focus the minds in the boardroom but would also galvanise the silent, apathetic fan base that we seem to have
Is this a viable option ?

I don't see why the FL would get heavy Fred.
Customs and Excise (as it was then) issued a Winding Up Petition the season before last for non-payment of VAT. No fall out - it was paid before it got to court.
I completely agree with your post though.
In fact I would prefer that it was a "friendly" party who issued it, then there might be some leverage. Particularly if it was for some fuck off amount that the club couldn't hope to find.

Could not agree more mate It forces the hand, focuses the mind and issues a timeline. Exactly what this fucking shambles needs
