UK: England and Wales: no administration order in respect of club that was not a company

The High Court gave judgment last week in Panter v Rowellian Football Social Club [2011] EWHC 1301 (Ch) - see here - and held that a club was not a company within the definition provided by para. 111(1A), Schedule B1 of the Insolvency Act (1986). The court did not, therefore, have jurisdiction to make an administration order, for which one of the club's creditors had made an application.
