Vultures on standby as Administration threatens
Thanks Al, have caught up now ! Can't imagine that there will be much left for "the vultures" to feast on though. I thought everything of value was transferred out of the business in return for the credit line of £100 M, leaving the shareholders with bu@@er all when subsequently the company was put into a CVA. And iirc didn't that credit line reduce to a fraction of that amount by the time that the deal was actually done ?

Presumably we'll have a new shirt sponsor then for next season?

Shame really if it's coming to an end as us and Flybe have had a great relationship over the years.

I think they whack a fair bit of sponsorship to the chiefs as well,if it dives go belly up will be a great shame and I hope our commercial boys are on the ball about any future sponsors

So long as it's not a betting / gaming company. Ideally it will be another local business but if it's a betting / gaming company I won't be buying it out of protest and also on the basis that it will look aesthetically boring.

I'd imagine they've had this scenario thought out for a while now, It's not as though its a big surprise

Thought the beardy wonder had ridden his white charger to the rescue from Necker Palace months ago?
How wrong could one be? Just call me a "naïve Virgin" I guess.

Branson is as usual not interested in saving jobs or services - his consortium just wants the Heathrow landing slots. It’s an asset stripping operation

These are good jobs, done by good Exeter City supporters, really hope this works out for them.
