City of London - It only broke the law for 7 hours 24 minutes: Andy Crossley returns

This is bizarre if somewhat academic. AIM Listed City of London (CIN) has no cash and - almost certainly - negative net assets and thus it is bust and is worthless as explained HERE. But it was - as of 7 AM - today also breaking the law, well the 2006 Companies Act when Jason Granite quite as a director. PLCs must have two directors so as at 7 AM City was breaking the law. Not that AIM cared.

Rangers International Football Club plc - Is it breaching the Companies Act? Is its Nomad a cretin or worse?

Rangers (RFC) has announced agreements with SportsDirect for the provision of a £5 million credit facility, with a further £5 million available “subject to due diligence by SportsDirect prior to drawn down”. However, with the company having admitted to “a number of options”, the deal now announced has been criticised as not being in the company’s best interests… We really question whether it breaches section 994 of the 2006 Companies Act. We shall be contacting AIM Regulation asking for a formal investigation. Since they are chocolate teapots, we will also be contacting the Scottish FA asking it to launch a formal probe as it appears a watchdog with some teeth.
