Seth's left foot

I know we're all getting excited, maybe a little giddy even, but there's no need to cross the line and start being silly, now is there?

Now steady on…

I’d even take back Jewell as Manager if it meant saving the club ? ???
I wonder if/when AA signs on the dotted line we’ll get ‘that’ When Harry Met Sally moment…

Is it a curse or just the fact that we’ve had a lot of d******** running the club over the years?

The crunch will come next week, the EFL will seek reassurance from the administrators that they have got a short term loan or offers for players to cover this months wages, if they can't raise a short term loan then i can see the EFL taking further action (not the 3 point deduction) and bring things to an end. We can't keep trading whilst insolvent.
It is not in anyones interest to let the debt keep rising.

We must surely receive an update later in the day on Monday with time running out and that open letter being put out into the public domain. 

Yes, to stay in administration for next season the club will have to prove that they have funding for the entire season. That’s why the EFL have mentioned our membership again.

Have you seen their expenses, it would have to be a hell of a lot of administrators! ?

If anyone thinks Mike Ashley is the bloke to buy us in the next 2 weeks, that ain't happening. Whilst he holds the position of not wanting to pay the administrators a penny, and low-balling creditors, he will be bottom of the pile. 
The only way Mike Ashley gets us is if the club goes right down to a liquidation deadline and the administrators agree to only taking a percentage of their 'earnings' as part of the rescue deal to stop the club liquidating. 
We need someone other than Mike Ashley if we are to start on anything other than - 15 points and have a chance of putting a competitive squad together and keeping Rooney for the coming season. 
Mike Ashley is always waiting for that deadline. He does this multiple times a year. He must be thinking Kirchner has pushed the deadline so close that he now stands a chance. I have nothing against his approach. He's a fine contingency plan to have, but we need someone else. 
In my opinion, of course. 

Ed Dawes latest comments sound as positive as they could be, interested parties have come forward now that CK has been removed and we will surely get a better long term option now.
Talk of the takeover potentially being concluded within a couple of weeks now.

Really torn on the EFL statement & whether this is a positive step.
The EFL are clearly not expecting Kirchner's money to land - that must be the first assumption here. The second point (and one that I agree with them on) is that Quantuma need external oversight on both their actions & communications between bidders & interested parties. Whilst we all acknowledge that Quantuma as an insolvency practitioner have to follow insolvency law, there have been a number of allegations levied at them from well connected journalists that they have not concluded sales earlier this season despite apparent agreements being reached. There are also unsubstantiated theories abound that Quantuma are prioritising admin fees over anything else, something that can not be proven given the opaque nature of all the discussions to date.
In summary, it is clear that there is a total lack of confidence in Quantuma & given the timescales, I do agree the EFL should be concerned at how long this could drag on. The problem then comes with the role of the EFL, an organisation so hopelessly tainted by their incompetence, agenda driven petulance & fact that they are easily manipulated by parties without DCFC's best interest at heart. That may or may not include one or more of the current bidders.
Two things do strike me though. Firstly, this is Quantuma's last ever gig in football administration - they're finished after this. Secondly, there will be a conclusion to this in the coming days & I do believe it will result in the club being sold. I do hope that any brinkmanship tactics the EFL employ (specifically around threats of expulsion) are kept private with Quantuma for the benefit of fans' mental health.
 

That’s why so many of us are blocked by him, for calling him out without any abuse or anger. Plus, he works for The S*n.

I am sick to death of seeing alan nixons tweets in this thread. hes become the most frequent poster
The guy is clueless and has been continuiously wrong throughout this process, hes spent the last day backtracking and changing his story to suit the facts yet people still claim he is reliable
why are people even giving him the attention he so desperately craves and makes people pay for now by the way.
sick of him, sick of the admins, sick of mel morris, sick of everyone involved in this shambles. 

It's hard to keep up and worrying for people coming on here that there's nothing in the official updates thread since Thursday. Should tweets such as Ashley's solicitor letter expressing interest to buy the club not go into there so people can quickly get up to speed? Thanks.
 
Edit: in case the mods don't know what I'm talking about, I meant this one:
 

they'd taste like piss?

I've kept quiet on this as thought best to see how things play out. 
One thing a lot of people seem to be completely forgetting on this, is that contracts have been exchanged, conditional on the ground sale.
Therefore, unless it is the ground sale that stops the transaction from progressing, CK is on the hook.
Not sure why anyone thinks he would exchange contracts if he did not have the money to back it up.
Out of interest, to anyone that has spent the day abusing CK, how will you now react to him if the purchase goes ahead?

I would say there is a difference between being locked into an economic act i.e., doibg things that are factored into the world economy and are structured to the point you struggle to avoid such as driving a car or heating your house and making choices to interact with and give validation to terrible regimes such as Saudi Arabia. 

Can CK complete a full round? 

Can CK complete a full round? 

No, he absolutely should not have.
The man is a well-known business vulture - he waits in the shadows until the business is on its knees before swooping in and putting a tenner on the table.
He will let us get to the point of having absolutely nothing to our name - no Rooney, no player re-signings - before offering a derisory amount that will see us start with -15. All for the sake of getting something a little bit cheaper than market value.
I promise you, he should only ever be a last, last, absolutely final choice.

Maybe the announcement wont be from our beloved corner flag but instead from the 18th flag at morely
#flaggate

CK Playing Golf? Is that at Morley Hayes before an announcement later today? ?
