Farnborough's appeal against the 30k bond has been dismissed by the FA and they have been given 7 days to find this - until then their fixtures are suspended so looks like we will not be playing them on the 25th

Call me a cynic but I wonder where this destitute club have suddenly managed to get £30k to pay for the bond.

It is good that Staines should have a home game next week and we are due to play them away soon as well. Presume they'll suffer a points deduction following the precedents set in other leagues?

Not sure Dave if "real money " actually changes hands- it all depends on the type of bond demanded by the league.It may simply be confirmation by a Bank that there are sufficient funds earmarked by themselves in an account/s of the person/s who are signatories to the "Bond".
I would never expect Farnborough with their past record to do anything which was simple and transparent such as paying £30,000 in cash over to the Ryman . However, I live in hope for the loyal supporters that this is a fresh start for the club.

Best wishes to all
Norm

You are correct Norm - cash does not change hands but there will be e.g. Bank guarantees required. You can be sure though that any Bank giving this form of bond / guarantee will need to be covered themselves in the form of Directors guarantee supported by a charge over e.g. property.

It seems though that Farnborough have tried to "bend the CVA" so that not all the creditors will be paid. This will run and run I expect. At least the Isthmian league are taking a firm stance at last. Shame they could not have done earlier in the summer....
