I am not aware of a document which includes the threat of legal action and nobody has referenced that to me either.
So basically there's the possibility whoever made the comment was making it as a tongue in cheek comment rather than as a factual one?
I don't doubt legal action would occur at some point, instigated by Langstone. All part of a poker game.
Spot on!!! All conjecture nothing factual to it and the lack of response was probably more of contempt than acknowledgement. Too much has been read into in my opinion

I believe both Carl and Keith might be both right and wrong in the same measure but are both missing a vital point. If the club has stopped paying the £83k p/m in December 2010 then they the club have probably committed a breach of contract whether the agreement of December 2009 was an 'option' has 'lapsed' or was never 'signed off'
The original Summary Judgement gave both sides an oppotunity to come to an amicable arrangement. Those payments would have been considered amicable by the High Court as they would have given Langston £1m p/a interest until 2016 when the principle sum was due to be repaid. Indeed those payments have set a precedent which could easily be exploited by Langston's lawyers who would easily argue that a 'contract' was in place from the moment the first payment was made.
The stopping of the payments was a clear act of bad will by CCFC and has given Langston all the grounds they need to return to the High Court.
Keith that probably answers the question to why the comments you heard at the EGM were made and to why many now believe that Langston will go back to court.

Natman how can you agree that legal action would occur at sometime but also be of the opinion that the debt is not payable as per the contract/agreement that is 'in play'.
