So...
I went to the shop shortly after the announcement to grab some 'celebration juice' for tonight and met a guy in a Derby shirt holding a 4 pack of Bud and asked him if he was celebrating as well.
'Celebrating what?'
'Takeovers done mate'
'Seriously?'
'Yeah, just been announced'
He then puts the 4 cans back on the shelf and picks up a box of 24 ?
If you're on the forum mate, have a great evening!!!

A perfect ending to the week. Thanks so much David Clowes. You'll always be remembered as the man who saved Derby County in it's darkest hour?
The sentence that stands out for me is this one
"We have to maintain a degree of continuity because there is no point walking into an institution that has been here for 138 years and having the arrogance to think we possess all the answers. My team will work with people, listen and learn before coming to any decisions"
Could there be a bigger contrast between this approach and the one taken by the owner who took us into Administration? It may even have been his subtle way of making exactly that point?
 

Roger, Tranquility. We copy you on the ground. You got a bunch of guys about to turn blue. We’re breathing again. Thanks a lot. 

Was this message for your doctor? Take some bog roll just in case. 

I think last season showed that when two key experienced players left, this had a detrimental effect on the squad/team (Shinnie & Jagielka). Experienced players bring nous & know-how, as well as a bit of grittiness to proceedings. We also need to bring in a few players in their prime (26 onwards), which may prove difficult as these often command fees & wages & everybody else is competing for their signature.
We need to get a balance, the right amount of older heads alongside the promising youngsters. Hourihane is interesting, but a surprise to be linked with us after playing for Sheff United (relegated PL side who could probably afford to pay his wages). He may be a player attracted by the prospective of joining a long-term project at a big club that has fallen but is expected to regroup after being on loan at Swansea & Sheff United.
I'm not going to have a go at a poster who may feel disquiet after what has happened. We do need to learn from our lessons (says a gambler/mug punter) but unfortunately football is about boom & bust, & we all buy into it, getting carried away (Pickering, ABC loan, crippling debts, to Mel Morris). We have to learn to be reasonable & we need to be prepared to buy into a project like the Swansea fans did over the last decade & a half. 
Not as well versed as others on here in terms of finance , vis @Carnero, etc, but the fact that we are paying 25p in the pound means we will be subject to EFL scrutiny for two seasons, I think, as creditors would  rightly feel aggrieved if we suddenly began to revert to type & pay overinflated wages & fees.
But the fact that we could have an experienced defender alongside Cashin bodes well, and the quality of player that we are being linked with may help us retain the ones  already at the club (Byrne, Buchanan).

Yes I believe you are correct B4 , we won't go pop. I guess I was just trying to convey that message to NUWTFLY , he seemed to be worrying that DC wouldn't be able to afford to buy our club and run it too.  Lets just wait fof the announcement that he's bought us. I suspect all will become clear at that point. 
And thanks for all your positive posts keeping our chins up in these testing times .
