Dean (hick) Saunders

Give us the 3 points tomorrow and we'll move on..

Ebosele is going to play regular in the position he played against Hull. So I expect him to chip in a few goals from now on, which will have teams trying to double up on him because of his pace and that hopefully will give more space to others.

Has to be the one and only Theo Robinson! So far, I think this is the first one I know for sure... 

One of the things that gets me when trawling around other fan forums is this sense that somehow if we stay up this season we would have avoided punishment!
I know we are dealing with some knuckle draggers that only want to see us finished, but it is a very strange view..they seem to ignore Administration, a 21 point penalty, a threadbare squad and endless embargo conditions.

Roger my arse.

Agree with this.
Know one knows where the money behind the other “bids” is really from. Just have the front man/men.
They could be financing it all with debt at high interest rates and are planning to pay themselves high Executive wages while club bumbles along.

Are there?
We know Ashley has the money, and whatever the 'entitled' Geordies think, he'll spend some. He took them up twice and has sold them for a profit.
He's a businessman first but he must love football a little bit and what better place to be! #COYR

I just want a preferencial bidder to be announced so we can start to plan for next season and sign up our players up on new contracts.

Could turn it into some gladiatorial combat session which would be extremely entertaining.  Releasing some Leicester fans periodically into the fray just to keep the combatants on their toes.

Just a reminder that personal insults to other posters will not be tolerated.
Argue with opinions, don't insult the poster.

As someone said, Sheffield Wednesday were also docked points and went to Boro on Boxing Day and won 1-0. So THEY cost Boro promotion as much as Derby supposedly did by their ‘cheating’. 

So is if(when) money runs out we’re screwed if PB not in place. Little chance of raising money through sales (window shut and academy pillaged of all value already)
No one will want to lend as risk too high…
Vultures circle to pick carcass and grim reaper sharpens his scythe.
 

I find it very difficult to see what the admin are actually doing. They have had three credible bidders/interested parties since November/December. The legal claims have been there since the beginning. We are now into the beginning of Feb?! MM has even offered to get rid of the big obstacle that was in there way. After reading the q&a they (imo) alluded to more obstacles they can use to ramp up their remuneration.
They have said in the past they are willing to work night and day to get this through but so far all I can see is hot air and not a lot of substance. It is still my opinion that MM is still pulling the strings in this whole situation. Hence why Steve Gibson is so hell bent on suing us. 

Why would they accept an invitation to a court hearing that they will lose? The Gibbon will delay as long as possible to cause maximum disruption. That’s what this is all about, not money…

c£18m cash needed to get through the season.
A mountain of debt which he would have had to pay off himself.
HMRC days away from issuing a winding up petition.
1 claim and 1 potential claim sitting in his desk drawer (believed to be £51m at the time)
Total = c£140m
Maybe he's taken out than £2.5m insurance policy to cover himself? Worst case is the £7m settlement.
Total = £7m

Which is the worst for us as it means more of this endless dragging along…

Don’t think Ashley has any trouble raising money. He just has a view (probably pretty accurate) on the value of the club as a business and won’t pay more.

I don't think Villa were better than us. I thought Leeds and WBA were better than them and we beat both. If Lampard had picked Marriott instead of Bennett for the final I think we would have won
