Old Lethamite 44 Report post Posted February 6 Pretty sure the German World Cup team in 1966 (remember them?) had stockings without a full sole i.e. no toe or heel, but a band to fit round the sole to hold them in place. Seems like a solution. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmy Wallace 384 Report post Posted Monday at 01:47 PM BLK seem to have disappeared. If you try to go to their website (blksport.co.uk) it now takes you to the parent company in Australia whilst Saints page just comes up with an error message. Can't find anything online to clear up what is going on apart from mentions of older/historic insolvency issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BLK Sport Holdings were to officially be dissolved today, after serving two months notice to do so. Edited Monday at 09:17 PM by sjfc99 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The last filing on there for BLK Sport Holding is the 18th December of the notice to dissolve the company. BLK Sport UK (in liquidation) filed a confirmation back in 2017. Looks like everything has been moved from the current BLK Sport Holding to the sister company, RU Active. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BLK Sport UK (08249885) ceased in December 2018. BLK Sport Holdings Ltd (10573854) started in January 2019, and are still listed as active. Same company address and directors. The newest one had a filing that said they'd be shut down on Feb 18th, but they've filed accounts since then that maybe rule that out, I don't know how these things work though.
