What's the Inland Revenue? They were last seen shuffling westwards almost four years ago!
I was interested to see that this embargo is a result of not paying 'the taxman'. Does that happen in the Prem and the Football League? I thought embargoes were usually put in place as a result of clubs not paying what they owe to other clubs in respect of transfer fees etc.

Doesn't sound too bad if it's just a few back payment needed.
Saying that, it's going brilliantly well on the pitch, haven't lost in the league since mid-October, 3rd with 2 games in hand. I've seen them a couple of times this season, and they look very good indeed. Could turn out to be their best season in the CN yet!

I believe Notts County have a transfer embargo as they owe money to HMRC. Not sure if they owe money to other clubs though.

The problem is they haven't got any money. F E Downes, the owners building company, went to the wall just before Christmas and the club is in trouble as well now.

I know people that weren't paid for 21 weeks.

Oh, only 21 weeks, that's alright then
Never said it was. Just saying that there are people that hadn't been paid for 21 weeks.

I have to say, it's the worst story topping I've ever seen :icon_lol:

£200,000 ?
The Conference are acting upon HMRC's threat to force them into receivership...
in the event of bankrupcy, HMRC are top of the list for creditors (as they were at city)
heard about F E Downes going under, doesn't sound good

yeah Brown merged IR and Customs & Excise to HMRC...with a resounding lack of success
my understanding is that the Premiership/Conference/whatever can act on behalf of creditors to get them paid and stave off them forcing the club into bankrupcy

The difference being mine his fact, hazzers in speculation.
I can't see how HUFC can continue for much longer unless they find a buyer and i really can't see who will buy them.

Depends on the price, im not flush at the moment but could be tempted.

Good point. Either way it's a long time to go without money coming in.

Almost five years.
I'm constantly living in the past - though not as far in the past as the person who does the Hinckley website, it seems.

If I hadn't been paid for 21 weeks, I wouldn't have been making much of an effort in the last 20 of them.
