    you would be correct in saying our revenues are an advantage in league one yes, but we will also have debts to pay which will take a large chunk out of those revenues unless clowes is willing to wipe all debts but i cant see that happening unforuntaely.

     

    we still owe a lot of money to football creditors which will have to go out of accounts so anybody expecting us to start spending any amount of money on transfer fees will probably be mistaken.

    I thought to exit admin you had to pay football creditors 100%. So what further debt are you on about?

    I've heard (same source who suggested the pink kit tip a couple of years ago) that Derby's new change kit is in a colour called 'potion'

    A Google search for "Umbro Potion" comes up with a few images, including the attached 'Purple Potion' shirt from Brentford's training range last year. 

    He's the one who said the home shirt looked like 'a paint brush had been cleaned on it' - would that tie in with that sleeve detail?

    I wonder whether B4 classes this as pink or not? 

  3. I can’t see bringing some journeyman Manager, who will just look to bring in the players he’s worked with before and likes, plus costs loads of money be beneficial at this time. What if they struggle early on? We gonna sack them when they’re on a lucrative contract? 
     

    Liam deserves his chance and knows the targets and how the club runs. He won’t be  costing a load either.

    Might as well shut it if the premiership clubs are allowed to walk in  and take who they want for next to nothing - sure have one in the premiership but I struggle to see the value against the cost in the past ten years 

    Totally agree mate 

  5. So basically nobody submitted a bid adequate to fulfil the requirements to exit admin when we was a championship club with twice the amount of players under contract. Apart from CK. so why do they think anyone would make that bid now when the debts have increased, The clubs been relegated and we have minimal playing staff as assets!! 
     

    What a mess MM, Q, Gibson and the EFL have made

    We can stay in admin for as long as we like, but Birch is saying we need to show we will  get out of admin on or before March 2023, or presumably the implied threat is that EFL will expel us sooner rather than later.  How  are we supposed to do that (ie show , before start of season that we will  get out before March 2023) , unless someone buys us before start of season. SO really isn't the March 2023 date irrelevant?   

    No, we can start the season in admin and remain in admin until March 2023. BUT, we have to show proof we can afford to finish the season, even if that’s cost neutral. How we do that and manage to scrape a team together is anyones guess though!!

    Why do people keep trotting out the line "we have 5 players" when the retained list clearly shows we have more than that ?

    Clearly we need at least a dozen players added to the first team squad, but Byrne, Buchanan, Bielik, Bird, Knight, Sibley & Stretton is 8 not 5. Cashin, Watson & Thompson will soon be added to that list too in all likelihood.

    Pretty sure those you’ve named  is only 7 ?

    Is that as well as or instead of the £60m bid Appleby put in?

    Seems to me like even at this late stage no one really knows whats going on.

    Meanwhile the clock keeps ticking, we have 1 kit (on order), 5 players (loaning 1 out) no pre-season friendlies and a rapidly approaching new season...

    £60 mil? Jeez it goes up by £10 mil every day, we’ll be more expensive than Chelsea if it goes on much longer!
