Last updated : 09 October 2013 By Covsupport News Service

Hinckley United have issued the following statement.

Now that the dust has settled following the court hearing yesterday the directors of Hinckley Football Club Limited would like to thank yet again everybody that supported the club and themselves in their respective positions over the last few years. 

The business went into liquidation with liabilities in excess of a million pounds and the directors ourselves had invested a significant six figure sum. 

We would like to assure all that any investigation into the running or financial affairs of the football club will be fully supported by the board. If necessary and if requested we are happy to provide information to the authorities going as far back as they require.

The directors would also like to inform all supporters, sponsors and shareholders that their intention is to attempt to continue with a new football club playing at the Greene King stadium and it is our intention that they will honour, where possible, any promises that have been made to shareholders in the past.

In the coming weeks we will be working hard with the Liquidator (when appointed)and Greene King Brewery to ensure that any football club that is raised from the ashes is run professionally and financially within its means.
