So who are those in the know that will speculate on the outcome on Weds. it’s in my mind one of the most important day’s in our long history.
It is possible to defer again? Surely there’s only so many times we can do that.There’s three potential outcomes
1 - Ron pays the debt in full
2 - We defer again, meaning the embargo stays in place
3 - We fold
I’m relatively confident it won’t be number three.
It’s a coin flip between the other two.

Jesus that is a little extreme don't you think? Six points?If our legal defence is anything like the defence that played against Harrogate my bet is that the club will be wound up on Wednesday, Ron will receive the death penalty commuted to life imprisonment and every Southend fan will get six points on their driving licence and made to sign the sex offenders register.
He have two more days to sort his s*** out!!As previously shared by the regular contributor from other side of the Essex divide, their chairman did outline in a statement what allowances were being made to clubs for them to shore up their finances, two of which were:
...2. The Taxman has allowed us all to defer PAYE payments.
3. The VAT man has allowed us all to defer VAT payments....
Maybe the wolf won't be at the door for the rest of the season if Ron can pay off HMRC before the hearing and thus there won't be the prospect of another immediate embargo?
Due to covid there may be exceptional circumstances. However having an embargo continue will likely relegate us. Just would be a prolonged painful death.
Ron has season ticket money so there is no excuse unless he wants to fold the club and bank it himself. Wouldn't put it past him!
