Notts County avoid being wound up after High Court case is adjourned

Notts County have been given more time to complete the sale of the club.

A winding-up application brought by HMRC over an unpaid tax bill  was adjourned until July 10 at the High Court in London on Wednesday.

Lloyd Tamlyn, representing the club, told the court negotiations are ongoing with two parties and the sale is expected to be completed within a month.

It is the second time the case has been adjourned after the club were initially in court in April.

The Magpies issued a statement after the hearing.

"Notts County have this morning been given more time to settle their debt to HMRC," it read.

"The High Court have adjourned the case until  July 10  in recognition of the ongoing takeover process.

"Notts fully understand supporters’ frustrations and concerns surrounding the club’s ownership situation but stress that strict confidentiality measures must be adhered to in order to ensure a deal is completed professionally and in line with all regulations.

"As soon as the club are in a position to comment further, a statement will be released."
