You gave that money to the hardship fund actually which wasn't anything to do with the administrator (at that time the club).



That was a fund managed by the Bulls Foundation (a registered charity and separate to the company that went bust and the new company OK Bulls). It helped people pay their rent and put food on their tables while working for nothing due to the club being in administration which was greatly received and a very admirable thing to do.



If you gave it to the club you were actually giving it to the administrator to help pay his funds.

Nope, you've still lost me. What compromise agreement / termination payment are we talking about?



At any rate, it is irrelevant, since it can't be Mason - who would hardly have been taking Shudds to court after he had agreed some compromise payment!
