Dawes now stating more "I understand (but it's not confirmed)" brow furrowing guff on Radio Derby
 
Making out that removing exclusivity means someone else can waltz in and take over. Surely not? Wouldn't we back at the point we were x weeks ago when CK was named preferred bidder? EFL checks, legal paperwork etc not to mention unpicking whatever has been done so far in the name of CKs bid
Changing horses now will set us back weeks I'm sure. Weeks we don't have
 

Anybody who doesn't think Ed Dawes is being played like a fiddle should listen to this.
Who's the one person who benefits from all this poo stirring?

Who’s played him as a fiddle?
I know Ed isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, he’s not really mine and I’ll criticise him where it’s appropriate, but today he did the right thing and it’s fair to give him credit where it’s due. Kirchner might not like it, Nixon might not like it but they were both sat on the information as to why the takeover had hit a snag, but because it didn’t suit their versions they were keeping quiet. 
Ed went OTT with his morning message yes, and it was classic Dawes, but because he did Nixon came out giving us what he knew all of a sudden. Simon Stone was tweeting to add pressure on. White and Jordan at the very least gave it national coverage and did speak to Kirchner. Dan Roan chased Kirchner across a well kept field! By midday at least the fans could paint a picture of what was happening and get a clearer view. How many times can we say we’ve been given that over the last 18 months. It’s not about good or bad news, it’s that we had a right to know what’s going on. Look on here today, no huge dramas or too much gloom, we chatted, debated and had a bit of a laugh about what was happening because at least we had a good idea what was happening. Imagine if we’d had another day of silence whilst Kirchner played golf, the fans deserved to know what was happening. 
Ed started to pull back a little after lunch, and so did Radio Derby on their news bulletins until sportscene. There Ed said pretty much everything he knew at that point, which was a changing story and that Ashley and Appleby were now in the background. 
He did well today and it gave the fans a clearer picture. It’s only right that we give credit where it’s due.

You mean - his sources have played him like a fiddle?
If the funds have cleared as he now states, then he just looks a massive mug

No

Here’s to Graham Jones, the one true itk!

Agree - there is simply nothing in it for someone like CK to string everyone along this far if he doesn't have the means to close the deal.
I saw someone suggest that he "just wanted to raise his profile"
How does that work? He raises it from "bloke no one has heard of" to "bloke everyone knows as a tyre-kicking fantasist"?
The money laundering checks seem the most obvious fly in the ointment
All we have to be concerned about now is that he's not *actually* a money-launderer...

I don't get the love for Mike Ashley
I don't think Quantuma have covered themselves in glory, but it's a reasonable question to ask here:
If MA's bid was the best for the club, why was he not the preferred bidder ?
The obvious answer is that his bid was no good
I've said all along that he's a vulture waiting to pick the bones off our corpse
Yes - MA buying the club is better than the club being liquidated, but I still think it will be a(nother) disaster if he takes over

Too soon?

Agree never wanted him anywhere near our club..he would be better than liquidation and we would have a club and could count down the days until he flogged it for a profit as hopefully he wouldn't stay long.
 

Because he didn't make a bid.
Today is an example of the much-predicted mischief-making by a potential rival 'bidder'
