Ashley's usual way of doing things is to wait till everyone else has shown their money then swoop in and scoop the business up. He is not afraid to leave it to the deadline to do so.... We however need it this coming week

Didnt Fozzy get banned retrospectively for an accidental step backwards on the opposition player?

Will Grabbans challenge be re-visited? It's quite clear from the replays....

Different Grabban is not a Derby player

Premier league with Var and Grabban is sent off no problem

Buchanan will be there to try and combat Spence's pace maybe Festy on that side too. 

Just in from Rooney's office

Being discussed on Talksport now. Apparently 2 of the 3 bidders have spoken with MFC and are happy to deal with them in isolation away from the administrators. Also, the issue is with DEL and MSD. Back in the administrators court. ??

Have listened to Jordan on this all week he jumps around all over the place each day it is someone else's fault. 

After a night planning how to stop Derby getting a takeover or finance Gibson and Parry go through their morning workout. 

A statement condemning Rich Rileys plan is due imminently from the Efl

Am I the only who thinks tough poo when i think about the consequences for him. He put us in this mess and if he's the one helping the logjam then pressure needs to start being applied to him too. 

Ed Dawes spoke to him yesterday he said Mel says it is the EFL not making the decision on are they or not football creditors that is stalling the deal going through.

One interesting point from the administration update which seems to have been overtaken by the shitstorm of updates;

‘The uncertainty around the possibility of further sanctions from the EFL in the event the chosen bid does not deliver the financial compensation to pass the EFL rules around payment to both football creditors and other creditors.’ 
 

I wonder if that’s a general statement because none of the bids meet the minimum thresholds to comply with EFL rules?

Kieran Maguire explains it as, if money is paid to boro and Wycombe it comes from the price paid by the buyer to buy the club and cover creditors. This reduces the amount other creditors get possibly below the minimum 25% there by incurring a further points penalty. 

This would infuriate those creditors one of which is HMRC so you can see the Admin problem unless the buyer increases how much he is willing to pay.

Difficult to concentrate on other football matters at the moment, but Reading losing tonight would be a great result. Could really do with Blackburn getting something out of the Hull game as well.

Out of interest, when are our friends Boro playing next. I hope the fans of whoever they are playing give them loads of abuse.

Play Monday night on Sky away at Blackburn

Stoke fans in raptures over Jags today.... It really is infuriating

I know, but genuinely, what happens if the arbitration says they have merit? What happens when dozens of clubs start filing claims for losses in the past? The EFL might want to make an example of us, but that would be cutting their own throats. 

It would but it does not really help us.... No buyer will currently purchase the club whilst no ruling has been made unless they are indemnified against it. 

If his fee saves the club fine but he will be a miss purely for his energy and ability to play three or four positions during a game. He played Central, right and left yesterday closed down and was a general pest to them all game.
