Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
There are now only two working days for the full HMRC debt to be discharged. In the absence of any statement that is fully verifiable, to the effect that payment has been made between now and close of banking business on tuesday evening, then I will be at the High Court on wednesday morning. Once a decision is reached I intend to get the verdict posted on here ASAP - so it will be a case of watch this space.
Make no mistake - there will be no second, third or fourth chance on wednesday morning. Registrar Symmonds is not going to be messed about any more, so even a minor shortfall in funds received will result in the petition being accepted and the winding-up process begins. I dread to think that the future of ASFC may boil down to banking charges incurred which have not been accounted for in the payment transaction. The verdict we are looking for is the petition thrown out because the debt is settled. So I suggest you stand by your computers & your phones and get ready to pass on the good news from 10.30 onwards, wednesday morning. |
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
? Hasn't the bill been paid off? Sure I have read it somewhere on here or L.E.T. Thobserver?

Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Ilyas here. i thought i better post before this thread gets ahead of itself. I was on the road all day today (horrible on the m6 by the way), and just saw email. I sometimes wonder if being so accessible on this forum is a good or a bad thing, but since i have started in this way, i better keep going.
firstly the full amount HAS NOT BEEN paid off. As you know, Peter and I have guaranteed the shortfall, and the situation is therefore as follows: 1. £96,000 has been sent to hmrc 2. I believe that another £100,000 (PFA) will be sent on MOnday I will speak with the HMRC on monday, and look to make a significant payment on Monday itself, once they have confirmed their receipt and then see how much, if any, we are still short. I am taking a belt and braces approach, and will still call them on Tuesday to see if there has been any slippage between "lip and cup". In providing you with this update, please all you should note that I am dependant upon information from the club, but I do think this is accurate. You should also know that I am NOT the club, and therefore its possible that they dont condone this information being shared. Given the high levels of anxiety of the past week, I think it worth sharing with you. I would urge you all to be relaxed about this coming week. I know that is tough, given our previous track record as a club, but as i say, Rob Heys has been totally co-operative, and the information i have posted above is accurate in my opinion. Ilyas |
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Thank you for that Mr Khan.

Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Thanks for reassurance Ilyas.... Thanks Rob for helping Ilyas :)

Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
What a horrible situation to be in..... even now they can't be trusted
|
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Thanks Ilyas for updating the thread with best of what u know or can presume at this stage. I trust u so shall not worry too much at this stage but do worry for thereafter with the present control.
|
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
So there is still time for the Boards original plan to come together; if the mortgages come through they might need Mr. Khan’s and Mr. Marsden’s assistance.

Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Wake up doug - its the club thats playing games by not being truthful about what is paid what is owed etc. You are accusing the man of stepping in with the money to pay off the debt that the CLUB OWES! I dont get what u are annoyed at seems to u the club are victims ? ? Thats the impression im getting with your post.

The only game Ilyas' 'side' is playing is one of transparency; long may it reign. If David O'Neill had bought in to that game back in the Summer the club would be in a much better place right now.

Directors Loans (Rob re-mortgaging his house for example would have come under this) will mean more money coming out of company coffers on a monthly basis I would presume. And I would also presume that these 'debts' would be repaid before other 'less important' debts. I could be wrong on both counts - but I don't think so. I don't want the clubs plans to come to fruition. I want them to fail miserably and have to rely on Mr Khan's money. It is the only thing that may force them to do the right thing by the club. |
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Too many ifs, whys and wherefores here for my liking! The judge/HMRC MUST know the shortfall, thus they must know how much IK/PM need to pay! To say anything else is a little unbelieveable?? Yes there maybe other monies coming in, but those funds, either go to IK/PM or go back into the running of the club - simple! If I am missing the obvious, then I apologise, but come on are we safe or aren't we?????

Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
way i see it val, only o'neil or rob heys can tell us the answer to that, we know whats already been paid in, we know ilyas has said they are expecting to pay 100K on monday, - thats the 64000 doller question to me. :confused: ilyas has said him n P.M. will make up the shortfall on that basis, so unless the clubs silence is broken, which i very much doubt, as they told us sod all so far, we shall all have to suck it n see.:(

Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
How can anybody pay the shortfall if they don't know 100% what it is ?
Sorry Doug, if you think both sides are playing games and want it ending I suggest you get your monopoly money in the post :) |

To be honest I think it's offensive to accuse anybody who puts money in to somebody else's failing business for no reward as playing games. Would you suggest the same to all those who contributed to the SOS appeal, after all I'm sure with a bit more effort they could have put more in.:rolleyes: |
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Doug. Your comments to me privately, and your comments on the board, and your (frankly) objectionable insults have gone too far for me to remain silent. You insist on assuming that I am "playing" at something. this says more about you, your state of mind, your personality and your own baggage. I have been totally and utterly transparent. If you cannot and will not accept this - and if you have nothing better to do than to cast aspertions even on the most straightforward of actions, then you are really even more of a sorry individual than your posts make out. YOu contradict yourself too many times for this to remain unchallenged.
I have noted here that playing the boards can be a double edged sword, but I have started, so i will continue. You will next tell us about a grassy knoll, where there is a holy grail, surrounded by chanting freemasons who wish to dance around some cat's guts. the simple reality, which you refuse to accept, is that the £308 will be paid and that I will make up the shortfall. If you cant, or wont accept that, and still want to equate me with oneil and whalley, then you really have had a lot of sad baggage. The fact i posted when the club remains silent on our arrangements is due to my deep seated belief that this is a club that has been mismanaged and mis run for so long that we really have to change, and we have to challenge all ambiguity and all deception. and whilst we are at it, i shoudl let people know on this board that Doug's private emails have been just as equivocal. His usual "on the one hand this....on the other...maybe that" seem to say everything and nothing. His congratulatory email to me almost got me to the point of replying by asking him to never send me any emails again. His other "sarcasm" where he assumes that oneil has put in just as much also bordered on being insulting. finally, douglas, if you continue to harbour these deep seated problems, come and see me. face to face. ask any question you want - but maybe wait till after the deadline next week. i look forward to seeing you. bring along your bag of semantic goodies. i am sure you were very good at school debates. lets see you in real life, not just hiding behind stupid bulletin board one line quips. |
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
I may b way off here but what IF don still refuses IK/PM offer can the judge except IK/PM payment for the debt?stopping the club be wound up?
Ilyas can you confirm no matter the club wont be wound up.this is no way saying you wont pay as i believe you will 100% but i was asked this question earlier and couldnt answer and its be driving me mad since! |
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Folks and Stanley FANS
PLEASE PLEASE ACCEPT THESE FACTS Ilyas and Peter are the saviours!!!! Ilyas again THANK YOU!!!!!! Unconditionally you answered the call, although you and Peter were never "officially" requested. Ilyas cannot communiate with HMRC as he isnt "officially" the Club. However I believe a meeting between Rob and Ilyas has now given Iylas the details he requires to save our Club. Doug, please belive, there was no plan B!!! What more can I say??? Yes I know, THANK YOU ILYAS KHAN ( and Peter M) ON STANLEY ON!!!:) |

Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Doug seems to believe that his dissenting voice makes him 'the voice of reason', when really he's just misinformed and plainly wrong.
I too tried hard to see where Ilyas was coming from, as his altruism seemed just too good to be true. However, over the last few days and having heard Ilyas speak on Wednesday evening, I have no doubts whatsoever about who the 'good guys' are. Unfortunately the internet is full of characters like Doug, but as long as they remain well in the minority, the reasonable and sane people can just get on with things. |
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Katie and Mr T
you are both correct. In the eyes of HMRC i have no "personality". their counterpart is ASFC, not Mr Khan or Mr Marsden. Katie. in the court room, in public, Peter and i said we would meet the shortfall. and that is what we are committed to doing. the only mechanical issue is to figure out what that shortfall is. The delay is not so that any director's mortgages can come through (I can confirm that we are not waiting for director payments), but for there to be a final landing on the PFA, and possibly a small amount from SOS fund clearances. I wish i knew exactly what that amount will be, but I dont. therefore my strategy to remit an amount no less than £100k on MOnday, and then find out what (if any) shortfall remains on Tuesday. Is that transparent enough ? Perhaps Doug thinks that this is some sort of plan to push the club into administration. Or maybe i am harbouring some deep secret deal with Whalley ? Sorry guys, I dont often lose my temper, but this thread, and Doug's gratuitously insulting comments went too far for me to remain quiet. Katie and Mr T please dont think my angst is aimed at you at all. i also hope this answers your questions. |

Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
As a bystander in all of this (although I have helped the appeal in my own small way) I am amazed that anybody can doubt Mr. Khans sincerity. In fact I would go as far as to say that Stanley are very, very lucky that he was prepared to travel down to London after the way he was so publicly snubbed and insulted about his earlier offer of help.

I don’t think for one minute you would let anything happen to this club Mr. Khan, but what I don’t understand is why this couldn’t have been done differently all round. I will ensure that what I post in future can’t be misconstrued to be inflammatory, but this outburst will not prevent me from posting my opinion on both sides, because that is all it is an opinion and alternative one to the current trend. I will take your comment on emails on advice; of course I won’t be sending any more; I also disagree with your assessment of the content. |

Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
OK doug. lets start with this question. are you simply positing a view to highlight what you think might be an alternative ? or do you believe what you post ? For example you state "against the current trend". does this mean you think this is a popularity contest ? my suggestion would be that you actually state what you believe rather than trying to play some sort of authorial judge who can dance above the issues but not actually say anything that can be seen as an honest to god opinion. i would respect you more if you actually said something, then stood behind it rather than trying to suggest that you are somehow the rebel. I note redskin on this board, who has on a number of occasions made some comments that actually express an opinion. the fact it is against my view is brilliant - at least he has the courage to say so and not run for cover by suggesting that his posts are actually just a way to highlight a different opinion. come on doug, grow up. this is a deadly serious subject, not a small town version of x factor. our club almost went under. our directors have been lying to us (all of us,including you). we still dont know how much money we owe to all creditors. Our current chairman may or may not be a director. and he may or may not even own shares. these are the real issues, along with the small matter of almost £500k owed to HMRC
i look forward to your reply, and i look forward to jousting with you once i actually know what you believe. |
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
I have been wondering for a few days if Dougs account has been hijacked by the Don or someone else ???? He is always opinionated but ????

Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Strewth, I can't believe some of the stuff I'm reading in this thread. Fact is, without Mr Khan and Mr Marsden we would not have a football club today. We wouldn't have played Grimsby yesterday, and we wouldn't be in the FA Cup next weekend.
To my mind, that counts for a heck of a lot, and the only thing we should be offering Mr Khan and Mr Marsden is our thanks. The sheer sense of despair there was on Tuesday, when it became apparent that the money would not be in place to pay the Tax Man was overwhelming. The relief the following day when the judge granted the extension, thanks to Mr Khan and Mr Marsden was such a weight lifted off the shoulders it was unbelieveable. So, as far as I am concerned, I have just one thing to say to Mr Khan and Mr Marsden and that is this; thank you . |
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Tuesday night was all about unity in desperate circumstances
Wednesday Night felt like a turning point Both nights will go down in the History books, now we must look to the future The Team & Management are doing their bit, The Fans are doing their bit, Ilyas & Peter are doing their bit that just leaves one gaping hole......... |
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
I cannot, for the life in me, understand how anyone can possibly doubt, query or criticise Ilya's position at any stage of this sorry saga. It is just beyond belief. I also don't know why Ilyas should waste his time defending himself, as there really is no need to do so. I would think the position regarding the shortfall is crystal clear to anyone not wearing blinkers. i.e., Ilyas will come up with whatever funds are required next week IN SPITE OF the smokescreen surrounding the owners true intentions. It is outrageous that Ilyas is still having to adopt fail-safe strategies in the event that the club yet again do not deliver on their latest promises. Their actions, rather than words, suggest they have been deliberately obstructing our survival. Incredible, I know, but that's the way it seems.

Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Ilyas, many thanks for yours and Peter Marsdens offer to save the club. I can understand others when they say, why wasn't this paid last week, however, on reading further into this thread, I can now understand the bigger picture and problem. Marcelle has done the decent thing and resigned, on a personal note, I think Rob should be retained and retrained possibly into the why's and wherefore's of a CEO post. Controversial this may be, but deep down he is Accrington Stanley through and through and has been a misinformed mouthpiece for the owners be they EW or D'On. Time for a change at the top yes, but as Ilyas has said in a previous post/thread, lets get Wednesday over with first. Personally, I am not worried and am glad a repeat of '62 is not on the cards.

Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
Something just isnt adding up & one can only presume that ew has every intention of winding up the club [even fans litterally] my worry is what can he do now presumably imo in spitefulness, cos Mr Khan & Mr Marsden are now guarantors for the debt which im sure they will sort if told the correct amount owed, to which i wonder if that has or is the case.
|
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
I was told exactly the same thing Jeff, it seems they never wanted the club to be saved but had their plans thwarted at the last minute - thank God! Anyone still think there shouldn't be a witch hunt against O'Neil & EW?
|
Re: Court Hearing 4th November - The Verdict
O'Neill has stated that he gave Whalley £100k to pay the taxman in 2008. How is he ever going to get that money back? If Stanley are not wound up he probably has no chance and if Stanley are wound up then any monies and assets removed from the Club before the Receiver gets there could be kept and sold to raise money for himself.
