I'm not ITK on what is going on and if there have been just two formal bids as the rumour mill indicates and the Appleby consortium is the party which has not bid that fits with the bit I do believe I know about.

I was told in January, when Ashley was rumoured but had not actually bid, that the Appleby consortium firmly believed they were in pole position to be named as PB. However, they feared that Ashley was negotiating directly with Mel Morris to purchase the stadium and that Mel preferred Ashley over Appleby as the new owner. 

If the Appleby intelligence is accurate, it would explain why they have stepped aside, if indeed they have.

I heard similar they thought the deal was as good as done, with Rush being involved in that there was no way Mel would be happy them being PB.

Awful ref clearly on the EFL bonus payroll, all the time wasted in added time and he adds on 10 seconds, gave us literally nothing all game!

Looked a blatant handball right in the eyeline of the ref how did the replay look on rams tv?

I don’t know how it works but I rather suspect any offers received are not immediately shared with other interested parties. I can’t imagine the administrators ringing up Ashley and say “we’ve had an offer of £xxm. Can you beat it?”. Perhaps they do.

They'll want the maximum amount they can get so id guess it would work that way

Dorsett isn’t usually wrong but I’m gonna guess there’s some sensationalism here which is largely unhelpful on the day of a game 

To be expected Ashley who is renowned for wanting a bargain will likely be waiting to see what the others offer before sweeping in a few quid higher and taking us straight to the Prem.

Win our two games in hand on Hull they’re only 7 points off and could easily get dragged in again, we just need to keep winning and hope for the best ?

And that's the worry, isn't it? 

We'll end up going back to the barriers and cages of the 80s if we're not careful. 

I can only presume it is because those idiots running on to pitches now have never experienced the discomfort and claustrophobia that causes.

Supporters and clubs have had an unspoken pact to honour the divide and keep our freedoms for several decades now but the kids breaking that risk spoiling it for the rest of us. 

It drove me right away from football before and would do so again if they return to caging us in.

Think a standard heavy fine across all leagues and a lifetime ban would stop it, if its someones child the parent gets the ban that would soon make them educate their kids and stop them running on, its been glorified by players giving out their shirts to them too much which is a big cause for it.

Cashin is a very good player you can see why Wayne was so gutted he couldn’t have him in the squad earlier in the season, get all these young lads tied down in lengthy  contracts asap! 

Massive! Tom Lawrence you owe Sibley a drink, but not a lift home!

George Thorne is still a free agent too.....

I really hope he stays, I'd like to think he is up for the fight even in League 1. I mean when do you get a chance to rebuild a club practically from the ground up the size of Derby in your own vision.

Exactly its the perfect job for him and owner depending he'll be getting a decent wage for it, the only one i could see him leaving for is  a rebuild at United but i see them going for Poch so hopefully he stays.

DON'T!! ......probably got woodworm by now !  ??

He's on 8 goals for the season, Weimann shockingly on 15! How we could do with those goals right now!

A certain CM9 is a free agent come June if we dropped a league he'd be a force in league 1

Just watched the documentary, you can see why our players have the fight they do with Wayne leading them. Future England manager for sure! I hope whatever happens this season he's with us for the rebuild next, most important person to keep at the club!

Could Ashley fork up the money for this rumoured insurance policy as part of the buy deal, if all quant are worried about is the financial side of it that’s surely a viable option. 

So good tonight all over the pitch, I love this team! We fight till the end!

Grass is green, waters wet, Bielik’s gone off injured. 

Ashley sign him up quick!!!

Ebosele should be locked away until we are purchased the offer a 5 year deal .. the kid  is dynamite 

His pace is frightening you’d do well to find a quicker player off the mark in the league 

Ebosele with the worst feline abuse since Zouma. 

Think Wayne saw my post about Plange needing a good #10 behind him 

From the Quant Q&A;

There has been talk in the press about a possible insurance policy against the claims. Is this correct?

Yes, we have looked into it but currently feel the premiums are prohibitive and the legal costs of defending the claims would also have to be funded.

Surely they should be making moves to take this action for if Boro & Wycombe drag out their decision on MM, before we know it another month will pass they could say no and in this time Quant shouldve been looking at plan b. If they're confident in this policy a go fund me page would raise enough for legal costs from fans im sure of it.

I’d bet good money that even if we’re liquidated and came back as a new entity we still make it to the Prem before Burton, Wednesday and F*****, rent free in all their heads.

Isn’t Ashley friends with Gibson? Can he be trusted? 

This is my thinking, Gibson and Ashley dont want MM to get a penny, now this insurance thing has been found and MM has a good defence case against them he doesn't want to know, or it could all be false rumours.
