Yes, you are correct. On ticking the filter box to show only the “current” officers, it just lists the 5 names we are already aware of. Think CP Gull May well be right about Lovell being the 6th member.

Hope it’s not bronsons fake son, George Bamby. He was shouting out about putting money in to save the club, he’s dodgier than a box of frogs

Who really cares!! The club is hopefully safe, just chill ffs!

I saw on twitter last night a post from the chap who made the video of Wotton/Warnock on Princess Pier

Joe Lovell replied thanking him for doing it "short notice" which indicates some involvement

wouldn't be a surprise if we have VX3 making our kits now, they make a fair few for local teams but also for Newport County (and if you look at their website they have a certain model on the home page.. - https://vx-3.com/

I believe that the final piece of the take over puzzle is ratification by Creditors of a CVA - I presume the CVA will be in the name of Bryn Consortium (or whatever trading name they adopt). I have a couple of questions about that:

1. Does anyone know what date the Creditor's meeting is to be held? I guess it hasn't happened yet as there has been no confirmation on the website? Because until that is confirmed we remain in limbo regarding player acquisitions.

2. On the assumption that the CVA will be entered into by the consortium and not the original company that went into Admin, could that of change owner trigger another points deduction under the Leagues Insolvency rules. That would be harsh I know but in effect it is 2 separate legal entities entering into 2 separate, but adjoining, insolvency procedures?

Previous examples of clubs going into administration and moving forward under a CVA suggest that another points deduction will not apply. To the best of my knowledge, no other club has suffered an additional penalty.

To answer

1. 31/05/24
2. CVA is the exit route of the company which was placed into Administration and will adhere to National League rules in that if accepted it deals with creditors claims

No points deductions apply.

Thanks WBW and Bobby - that's clearer (and a relief!)

Official. Edwards and Hayman both gone also. Happy friday to all gulls fans, absolutely buzzing

Congratulations and Thanks to all concerned. Happy days.

The best line in the update

Clarke Osborne, George Edwards and Mel Hayman have resigned as directors.

music to my ears

Good riddance to the lot of them, especially that snake Hayman.

There's a certain person who will be happier than almost everybody. I hope he has a few sherbets to celebrate tonight.

Great news!

Brilliant news!
Thanks to all concerned for saving our club - looking forward to getting involved.
Up the Gulls!
