The directors recruited to steer Poundland through its emergency sale process less than two weeks ago are on the brink of resigning, heightening the risk that one of Britain's biggest discount retailers will collapse within days, risking thousands of job losses.
Sky News has learnt that a trio of board members appointed on 15 October are expected to quit after a disagreement with Poundland's majority owner, Gordon Brothers.
