I'm not aware of any realistic theories disputing the findings of the report.
Certainly people may complain about the way the samples were taken; and the non-publication of the analysis (due entirely, I understand, to copyright issues).
But I think everyone accepts the dates. Even the person you hint at above has reduced his arguments to suggesting the vellum is original (but kept blank in storage for many centuries) which is, of course, a different tangent to explore.
And, realistically, the only counter-theory I'll personally accept would be from someone knowledgeable in the field of carbon dating.
So I think the question is currently pretty much settled Don. For now....
