You might need to more tightly define/quantify what you mean by 'completely inadequate'.

Hi, yes I will, I'll go on to detail specifics, I just wanted to be sure that the opening wording was appropriate.

Thank you!

The WS will give you more scope to detail, so for the Defence, a broad brush statement will probably suffice at that stage.

Only put things in your defence and witness statement if they are true!  Remember you are signing it under a "statement of truth" which will have dire consequences if you put anything that the judge later decides was not true.

Yes, and it looks like you need to read the rest of that template Defence again to discover that every point in there is relevant.

Hi, I've just attempted to post my defence on the money claim online portal but there is a maximum 122 lines so only half of the templated defence fits.

Do you have any idea what I need to do?

Do I cut half of it out? Please help!

Have you read anything you've been advised to read? Have you looked at the 12 steps mentioned in the Template Defence thread? (You can't have else you wouldn't have tried to enter your defence on MCOL).

I'm doing mine through MCOL, which parts of the template do I need to cut out?

That is what we are trying to tell you. DON'T do it through mcol. As @Jenni_D said, you should follow the 12 steps. This will tell you to EMAIL your defence, in full to the given address. If you do use mcol it will be a mangled waste of time. Defend this properly and you have a good chance

Why, when the advice is not to put anything in the defence box on MCOL?

You do not cut anything out.

Please do revisit the first post of the Template Defence.  You are not doing a defence on MCOL.  That is now 'read only' for you.
