GOLD Coast Titans will face a wind-up action next month following a court hearing this morning in Brisbane.
The action followed an application before the federal Court in Brisbane by Reed Constructions, which claims it is owed about $1 million for Titans Centre of Excellence at Robina.
Lawyers for the Titans this morning tried to resist Reed being named as a current creditor.
However a judge ruled the club had signed an agreement in August last year admitting it owed the builder money.
Reed Constructions will now have to advertise that it plans to wind up Gold Coast Titans before returning to court on April 20.
It follows news today that NRL accountants had unearthed millions of dollars of hidden Titans debts.
It also comes amid belief the Titans signed Melbourne Storm halfback Cooper Cronk.

THE Gold Coast Titans' crippled financial state descended further into the abyss yesterday after a team of NRL accountants unearthed millions of dollars of hidden debt in the embattled football club.
While Titans boss Michael Searle has long been adamant the club's difficulties are confined to its property arm and its Centre of Excellence, NRL chief executive David Gallop revealed an audit this week had shown all aspects of the business were under 'considerable financial stress'.
Incredibly, it comes amid an increasing belief that Storm halfback Cooper Cronk has already signed a three-year deal with the Titans, despite deep concerns about the club's future.
