Non-League Media seeks protection

UK-based Non-League Media plc, the Alternative Investment Market (AIM)-listed lower league football publishing company, has petitioned the high court for administration orders to protect the company from its creditors.

The company said that it was pursuing a number of options to secure funding to satisfy the creditors of the company and its subsidiaries and raise additional working capital.

The company said it will announce the results of its fundraising efforts in due course, but has set the court hearing for June 25. Gareth Roberts and Paul Ellison, of chartered accountants Hurst Morrison Thomson, are the proposed administrators to the company and its subsidiaries.

Non-League Media publishing units include Non-League Paper Limited, Non-League Club Directory Limited, Non-League Magazine Limited and She Kicks Limited.
