Bolton have staved off the threat of administration
Bolton, issued with a winding-up petition by HMRC in February, faced administration or liquidation, but now have a fortnight to find a buyer.Barrister Hilary Stonefrost, representing Bolton, told the court the club has a potential buyer lined up who “already owns a major stake in a high-level football club”.She asked for a 14-day adjournment to give the club time to complete a sale and settle its debts.Judge Clive Jones, sitting in the Insolvency and Companies Court in London, adjourned the case until April 3. However, Bolton could still find themselves in serious trouble if the potential buyer pulls out of their deal for the club.If Wanderers go into administration before March 28 they will be deducted points this season, but administration after that point would mean they are docked 12 points for next season.Bolton are much more likely to want a points deduction this season, as they are already facing relegation from the Championship with eight points separating them from safety.It is the sixth time in 16 months that Bolton have defended a winding-up petition due to unpaid tax and VAT.Bolton are in serious financial trouble2
Bolton are in serious financial trouble
They won a similar stay of execution in the High Court three years ago to allow previous owner Sports Shield BWFC to complete a last-minute takeover.Current owner Ken Anderson bought a stake in the club during that buy-out and took majority control in 2017 after Sports Shield went into liquidation.Bolton confirmed on Tuesday night that a potential buyer had pulled out of talks, but that there were still several other interested parties.
