Fan protests increased as the season reached its conclusion and the club’s perilous financial state showed no signs of subsiding.
The latest adjournment is merely “delaying the inevitable”, a leading member of a fan group has said, and means their chances of getting back towards an even keel could be delayed.
“I’m disappointed,” Nick Holt of The 1873, a fan group set up in response to the way the club has been run, told BBC Sport.
“I’m a long-time fan of the club, as many people are, and to get that adjournment decision today just delays one, the inevitable, and two, any form of a rebuild or planning for 2026.
“It would be a sad day for any business or sporting organisation to go into liquidation.
“It would be a bitter-sweet moment because we know the club as it stands right now has no real chance of servicing the level of debt it has.”
