Would someone from the Telegraph or Radio Derby have the guts to ask him
”Do you want Derby County to cease to exist as a football club in the Football League?”

If Mel’s had any sense he’ll have loaned the money he’s been putting in over the past year to Gellaw 202, then shovelled that across to DCFC to reduce the amount owed for the stadium. 

Sorry but . . .

Abandon ye all hope who enter here. 
 
is the way I’m feeling at the moment. 

As a taxpayer I think it’s piss-poor of HMRC to allow one football club to run up £26m of unpaid tax on its own. 
 
They’ve consistently been taken for a ride by football clubs over the years and ought to recognise the signs by now.

I’m 99.99% sure Mel hasn’t put £80m cash in to buy the stadium. 
 
Also the stadium is now only worth what a willing buyer is prepared to pay. 
 
Yes it might have been valued at £80m but I surely no one would be prepared to pay even half of that for it now?

If we listen to it are we allowed to talk about if afterwards or is there a NDA online that listeners have to sign? 

Surely more likely to be a pre-record?

Michael Dell's motto apparently is be crazy and don't seek too much advice.
Can see why he chose Morris as a partner. Fits right in. 

A football creditor so he'll be alright.

Who wants to be part of the consortium to buy the club out of administration?

Unfortunately these statements have to be very carefully worded - with no admission of liability by the directors.
A bit like if you have a car crash - your insurance company tells you to admit nothing.

Hard to say, but either a) a deal has already been done to sell the club, or b) the administrators will run the club with a view (hopefully) to finding a buyer. 
The directors will have no say in the running of the business as this power goes to the administrators.
Just seen club statement - was hoping for a) but we've actually got b).

If we haven’t breached FFP, we should be arguing for a points addition after all the poo the EFL have heaped on us. 

I'm sure you'll all be ecstatic to know that Barclays Bank no longer has a charge on the Club's assets per Companies House filing today.

Get rid of that 0871 phone number

It means the companies can continue to operate without the risk of being struck off (i.e. ceasing to exist) in about six weeks time.

This was a formal action by Companies House due to non-filing of documents.
Lack of annual confirmation statements and accounts are the two things that twist their knickers.
The outstanding confirmation statements were filed yesterday which seems to have been enough for them to discontinue the strike off proposals.
Can't really understand why these were outstanding - it only takes a few minutes to do online and costs £13 per company. If they couldn't afford £13 till now things must have been bad! 
But the fact that it's been discontinued is good news.
PS Expect Mr P on OTIB to now burn more midnight oil to come up with another conspiracy theory. Had some weird idea that Mel was getting these companies struck off to avoid FFP issues.
