    Not strictly true - ideally they want a deal that matches as that makes their job simple and allows them to conclude the deal quickly (which would reduce the complaints about the way they’ve handled things) - ultimately if CK can’t do the deal he’s agreed then Q have to negotiate with the interested parties and decide what is best for the creditors even if it’s significantly less than CK was offering and doesn’t meet the EFL minimum payment to avoid a points deduction.
    I’ve said on here before that I think CK was paying over the odds given the level of value that is currently left in the club, so the remaining parties may well be reluctant to meet the currently agreed price…..

    But only in accounts based on the amortisation rule that wasn't in place when we committed the 'offences' - think Morris suggested that using his method, we'd only slightly breached for one year.....

    OK, I warned people last night about posting stuff that might get us in in trouble.
    Now we're posting potentially libellous tweets and discussing them.
    Just think before you post.

    We had a damn good case against the 12 points (proven by subsequent EFL rules changes that allowed clubs to lose more money because of COVID) - Q simply abandoned the appeal to speed up the process. They have made a series of poor decisions throughout this whole fiasco - doubt they’ll get much future work in football…..

    Just read a report on Twatter that states Ashley wants the club but is refusing to pay any of Q's fees since the point in December when he had a previous deal agreed with them - apparently he slammed their methods in a meeting and the deal broke down.....

    The longer it takes for ‘the money’ to clear, the more suspicious people will be. Does the money actually exist? if so, is there something slightly iffy about it?
    Pure supposition, but someone who is clearly willing to take financial risks (as he’s admitted by making a killing on crypto) may also take risks to get the best return on his capital - it’s possible the money has been in some offshore tax haven rather than sitting in CK’s US bank account - that will raise all sorts of flags with the authorities and should make us worry about future funding as well - it may all clear and CK may be the saviour we’re all hoping for, but he certainly has some serious questions to answer if we ever get to the end of this nightmare.

    Good Morning all, I hope you all slept well.
    I spoke to my friend last night at 11-30pm, A little about my friend, He knows several ex DCFC directors, Had/Has business dealings with them and is an extremely good golfer and has a very good business, Yesterday at golf(no not with CK)he was with one ex DCFC director, This director fed him the information I gave and he said and I quote "I expect Steve Morgan to be the new owner come 5pm this evening".
    Now this is where the fun starts, Q knew Monday afternoon there was an issue with the money but sat on it, They were blinded by CKs credentials and patter, Dawes breaks some news concerning wages being paid by someone at DCFC and not CK, The person who gave him this info was a senior DCFC player who was promised certain things, The player I do not know his name.
    Q after Dawes revelations went into panic mode, My friend and Q knew of the wages not being paid to CKs employers on Wednesday, Some ex DCFC directors don't seem to be that impressed with CK, They think he's a braggart a little loud but likes to be liked, On a personnel note my friend thinks a little jealousy has crept in with how CK made his money...ie got lucky.
    Q now have a mountain to climb, According to Dorset, Percy, Nixon, Dawes and anyone else who's reported the story they seem to be batting for their PB/Owner, Whether it be Morgan, Appleby, Ashley or even Kirchner who knows?‍♀️, Q and the EFL are at odds with each other and have been for several months, It looks like the EFL are trying to put all the blame on Q as the paperwork they saw for the fit and proper owner came from Q.
    My friend said he stands by on what he was told yesterday, Most of us will have someone in our group that like to bluster and maybe give out a little BS, My friend is not one of those types, He's a genuine person who I'd stand up for and is not afraid to stand up for his mates.
    Chins up all....Alf
