    Very interesting take. Of course, it could work both ways and a novice fails miserably. I’m not sure if Rosenior is cut out for a No.1 but he’s the obvious choice.

    One of the few positives that I can think of, it at least Sibley may well get some more game time under a new manager (Sibbo is one of those still under contact no? Please correct me if I am wrong ? )

    What’s to say that wouldn’t have happened under Rooney though?

    Been listening to Radio Derby and all the chat from Ed Dawes and fans ringing about clear the decks, experienced manager etc etc - NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! If we want to end up like Forest were, like Sunderland like Ipswich stranded down here for years then taking this approach will lead directly to that. You would be bringing in a manager, with an ego with a set way of doing things, will sign experienced names who all don’t get the club!! 
    Look at the clubs promoted this season or competing. Leam Richardson at Wigan, Liam Manning at MK Dons, the impact Kieran McKenna has had at Ipswich going in after the Paul Cook clusterfuck! Darren Moore, Ryan Lowe previously at Plymouth, Ian Evatt was inexperienced doing a great job at Bolton. We need someone dynamic who gets the club and can inspire the players and build on the feel good factor of last season.
    Step forward Liam Rosenior. He’s the only man for the job IMO.

    Andy Comyn. Our first post Maxwell signing. Probably one of the most intelligent footballers too.

    In a different league to Kirchner, Sheikhs, Alonso. Also has the wealth that Appleby potentially doesn’t. Rumours have been going since the start that Appleby struggled to raise funds with investors pulling out. I’d take either. But I’d be more than happy if it was Ashley.

    I think it would be very tight.  Also, wouldn’t those players all need to be sold within the next 2 weeks? There would be no guarantee on fee. We’d have to show evidence of funds in account. We’d then need players to actually compete - around 20 players. We also owe on Bielik so would lose money on that deal. It’s panic stations to get this done.

    Without a takeover I’m not sure we’ll be able to show funds. They can remove the ticket before liquidation, hence the urgency to complete the takeover. No one will take us over if we’ve been kicked out the league, so the EFL do hold some pretty big cards here

    Work out what you actually watch regularly and what is a nice to have then cut your cloth accordingly. Go and get quotes from the other subscribers and then present these back to SKY on a like for like basis.
    They'll have the same information anyway just as when I get my annual renewal from my insurance firms they can access the same tables on the price comparison websites that I am referring to so they know what other companies are offering and won't put up much if any resistance when challenged to match the best price. 
    Look into your current contract, if you have penalities for canceling your subscription part way through are you going to make this up in the long run by moving to a cheaper provider?
    Be prepared that if you do negotiate a better deal with SKY then the kicker could be that they tie you into an unfavorably long contract with cancellation clauses in it.
    And stand your ground.

    My Son's was the same price, He cancelled after trying to negotiate a better price, They sent him 2 boxes to send his Sky equipment back, They were the wrong size, He contacted them to say wrong packages...at this point Sky gave him the same deal for £84 for 18 months...there's money to be saved ?

    It’s impossible for Morgan to have done it al by 5pm yesterday so I think there are some crossed wires there. Hopefully he or Ashley sorts it within a week. I don’t want CK after all this

    As should have happened after the initial preferred bidder time period had expired. To grant one person exclusivity for so long has been crazy. Now we’re in a race against time.

    Mike Ashley is on the ball re Quantuma then. If they want to salvage their professional reputation they need to take a massive fee hit. Let’s say 35% over 3 years lads.

    Yeah, absolutely. I dare say Ashley will try to get summat on the cheap if he can. No doubt it won’t be as simple as I made out and will take forever again.
    On a positive, at least we maybe coming towards the conclusion. No bank holidays upcoming either. The golden share must be at stake soon? 
     
    I’m not sure I trust CK. If he’s having difficulty now, how is he going to fund us long term?
