Title: Admittedly this is from the BBC....

...but Chester have been served a Winding Up Order by HMRC.

Is this something new or have I missed something?

I thought this was new? Still, it means little. I think they're probably about the fifteenth club to have faced such an order in the last 6 months. It's just a way for HMRC to ensure they get unpaid tax ASAP - good idea. No doubt Chester will offer to pay 10% now, 60% in installments, the rest as a lump sum in 2017 or some other such nonsense and be allowed to continue exisiting as the pathetic mess they have become.

I reckon this is the same case as discussed on the "Jim Harvey leaves Chester" thread.

Maybe I am wrong but the date is the same.

It is ... but Fuertes' analysis is probably fairly accurate!
