    I’m not sure that’s true, most people in Derby/Derbyshire will realise the benefit to the county in keeping the football club going, and securing the stadium so it can’t be used like this again.
    It would be more benefit than building a velodrome, how much did that cost?

    If they buy the stadium, or even get given it, they would still have those running costs.
    After all that’s happened with Mad Mel I’d prefer the stadium in the hands of the community anyway, it won’t be so messy then the next time we go bust.

    Why would anyone buy us with all that debt and no league membership when they could pick up the pieces without paying the football debts or HMRC?

    We start again at PPS. Should be a great ride back up and the community still gets the benefit. August kick off at home in National League North? I'm in. 3 season tickets, please.

    Which the potential bidders would be patently aware of anyway. 
    We're sitting ducks atm at the pure whim of random business people whom may or may not decide to up their interest in us.

    Because if whoever is bidding for the club is not offering enough to pay football creditors and HMRC, so not satisfying the EFL to keep the league membership, then the bid is effectively worthless. They may as well wait and start up a new company and buy the name and history.

    They’re not, as has been said many times, their job is to try and get the best deal for the creditors, which means selling it for the highest price possible.
    But there is a minimum limit, set by the EFL, who won’t allow us to stay in the league without paying 100% to football creditors, a percentage that HMRC will accept, and a percentage to all other creditors, so they will have an absolute minimum figure that if a buyer isn’t prepare to pay then the club will be kicked out the league.
    The second limit is the other creditors, which if the buyer doesn’t meet we get a points deduction next season, which isn’t quite as bad as liquidation, but makes it harder for us to recover, which in turn makes it less attractive for potential buyers, which in turn forces the value of the club down (a catch 22).
    So according to the latest quantuma statement no buyer has so far come forward with a high enough bid to satisfy the first limit.

    I was wondering if Don Amott would be considering that is well, it’s an opportunity for them to boost their fan base considerably.
    They’d have to change colours though.

    1 MM will say he lost more than enough chasing the dream
    2 HMRC will say they’ve made an example of us to discourage other clubs thinking they can get away with it.
    3 MSD will write it off as a bad loss
    4 Administrators will say it was an impossible situation.
    5 EFL will say they gave us enough time
    6 Football as a whole will mourn for ten minutes before fixating on another headline, an England player being booed or something     equally trivial.
    7 We’ll be devastated but nobody will give a poo until it happens to them.
