Morris is the ring leader behind this. He’s driving the money discussions.

Is one of his other companies 'owed' as a football creditor? He's also got a few quid coming his way when he sells the stadium

[KrolMong]

I know that any done deal has to be right for him.

Is that when Fred the butcher owned the club?

Sam Longson was road haulage.

You need to be a financial/accounting genius to understand boardroom chatter nowadays and fortunately we have a few on here.. Thankfully they can make this more understandable to oiks like me.

In my early days supporting Wednesday, nobody queried why Wednesday were top of the list in buying players when there was a maximum wage therefore creating a level playing field. We even broke the then world record transfer fee when we bought Jackie Sewell.

Clubs accounts were ,lets say, very vague. You had a good idea who the dodgy clubs were. You would assume other clubs had spies in other clubs camp. A certain club, t'other side o't Pennines, seemed to gazump us on occasions offering better terms to the likes of Dennis Law and Harry Gregg when they were en route to sign for us.

Telegraph reporting that Ashley is taking one of the Quantuma administrators, Carl Jackson, to court. Seems Jackson promised Ashley preferred bidder status back in January and then Quantuma gave it to Kirchner. 

[Reesh]

50m bid submitted 

[Andyben]

Who by? Must be a reyt mug 

[Reesh]

50m dollars is now quoted which includes the ground, but the bloke has form for not completing a deal

[Tank_Owl2,0]

Come on EFL either just take their registration of em or relegate them to L2. 

[Tylluan]

Quantuma borrowing more money off MSD Holdings to keep the club going. Apparently they've been borrowing more and more since they made Kirchner the preferred bidder. Morris already owed them over £20m

[owl4ever1867]

What a farce - just lick up the phone to Ashley, come to an agreement, sell the club & move on, jeez.

[Otto_Man]

Anyone else getting the feeling this might not end well? EFL now complaining that potential bidders won't speak to them...

Under GDPR and NDA they can't speak to the EFL

Which is fair enough but if I was the EFL I would not speak to them when they want the golden share transferred. In the end that is where the power is 

[Otto_Man]

Not sure I buy GDPR as the EFL have legitimate interest here in spades

Shit club, shit fans, shit city.

Think it is where his base is yeah.

It has to be said, that the EFL are letting Derby use all of their nine lives, with all this time they’ve given them

Derby will get to the Prem in 4 years with him in charge ...feet landed on!

[Reesh]

He's not taking over.

 

David Clowes, net worth 250m is the preferred bidder.

 

Now keep your weird conspiracy theories going MPB

[Andyben]

Good news for us.

Leaves Ashley available if the Austrians pull out 

[bricat]

I think these people have a plan to value the stadium at about a quarter of its claimed value and get the whole package in one go

The stadium will cost about 22m to cover what Morris owes MSD

Back to plain old derby county, not wayne Rooney's derby county apparently 

[HoylandOwl]

As sheff blue said 👇

No owner, no manager, no players.

 

 

No club???

They are being taken over.

[TheExile]

Rooney obviously didn’t like the sound of the new owners did he?!

Was always going to be a different dynamic this season and harder than the last where it was a free hit. A huge blow to Derby though even Curtis Davies sounded like he didn’t fancy it 

[Reesh]

Deal finally completed.

[Tylluan]

Be interesting to see what the EFL do now as the standing was if they were still in administration on 1st July then it was a 25 point deduction. 

Technically speaking they were still in admin at the beginning of today

[JBO]

Yeah I wonder what will happen......
