A proposed offer from former management to buy closed book printer Butler and Tanner (B&T) must be submitted by the end of the week, according to the company's administrator.

cant see the friary crew sticking that journey for very long. LONG LIVE B+T

i kno they wont....and after dolan fks them over....where will they be expected to move after that...down town beirut???

In my opinion despite Mr Dolans assurances there are not enough assets on the Frome site to cover the creditors and an "orderly dissolution" is far from the best way forward. Much of the machinery is leased and the site is not company owned and has a landlord. Surely the best solution is for the administrators to seriously consider the bid from Kevin Sarney and his backers thus securing jobs and providing publishers with an option to get large sheet books and account/commercial work produced on their own doorstep.

Well said henry !!!!!

Well said Mark I for one would be willing to work for "the new butler and tanner" if circumstance prevails and things get run properly

Here Here Reggie everyone who gets chance to work there would certainly want to make a go of it and make Dopey Dolan a bigger muppet than hes already made himself look.

well said meatman. where do I sign

On the dotted line kid !

wouldnt it be great if it was a success and the workforce could be seen urinating on mr dolans firework!! in my opinion.

long live rupert bear

rupert bear whaaaaaaaaaa thee hell

jeff hayes former managing director what thee hell my cocker spaniel has more backbone than that puppet!

you don't mean jeff "yes mike" hayes surely now theres money wasted,we ought to be able to claim for money taken under false pretences!!!

Fingers crossed the deal works for all even if its on a reduced level. May B&T live on. Good Luck
