Same as Hilton’s but his got the transfer embargo lifted as well.
Not completely true.
Hilton used part of the funds that were in the clubs account to part pay the HMRC debt and come to a monthly payment arrangement, which incidentally he didn’t stick to hence the new application for a winding up order.
Because of the arrangement the transfer embargo was lifted.
The statement by Hilton that we were days away from being wound up wasn’t true either, no judge in the history of football has ever wound a club up on the first application for a winding up order, they are always given time to pay.
Southend is a prime example, research will show you other clubs have never been wound up at the first application either.
