Yeah I appreciate that Boxer and I suspect I am feeling a little bit sore at the moment and will sleep on it.
What annoys me is that companies basically go bust, screw those along the way, ok its the taxman seemingly taking the main hit in this case, which is kind of bearable, but then they set up again, with the a Board possibly similar to the previous one and all is rosy in the garden....
As you say, for 60 k or so, did this course of action really have to be followed, particularly when certain Directors have been spouting to the press about how they remained upbeat and optimistic about avoiding this very situation.
Everyone knew the general circumstances and an honest open dialogue a number of months ago instead of the approach taken may have had a different outcome. Sadly we will never know now.
