So Woolworth's has gone and Northern Rock (effectively), but I'm losing track of who's "In trouble" and who's actually gone tits up.
Any chance of creating a definative list?

Woolworths.
Northern Rock.

Pretty much everybody.

all Irish Banks, RBS, Loyds Group (both of who own 2 i think of the irish banks) Most the the property companies (Commercial & Resi) most of the agents who work on the commercial and resi developments etc. Any one involved on the developments that are on hold or cancelled or built and not let so construction etc.

That's my area done.

Officer's Club and others who have gone into pre-pack administration, shed their debts like a fleece and carried on as before.
