Dave Ibbotson wasn’t the only one with problems in the Courts. According to The Telegraph a winding up order from HMRC has been adjourned until next month. Mercato Sports is the McKay family company run by McKay’s wife and son. Of course Willie McKay can’t run it himself because he is not a fit and proper person according to the Football Association. The McKays have a history of problems with HMRC.
