and @Mostyn6 I am very sorry for your loss.

Mostyn, you’ve inspired me to quote Shakespeare’s Henry V
??❤️
We few, we happy few,
we happy band of brothers
for he today that shares his Bass with me
shall be my brother.

Just read David Clowes’s statement with tears in my eyes. Brilliant, has a ring of class, humility and sincerity. We are emerging from the darkness…

Celebrate the small wins, Pride Park has changed hands meaning Morris is no longer the owner. It also means MSD’s loans/security are potentially sorted and not hanging round the club’s neck. String it out like a birthday celebration, have a small celebration tonight with nearest and dearest, then maybe another with the workmates when we offer contracts, then a big party with balloons and that when a takeover is finalised, that’s my plan anyway, now where did I put my Rams Tiara….

So sorry to hear about your loss.
This post doesn't half sum up how important football clubs are to the cities and towns of this country, the local and regional communities that invest their hard earned cash for what in the main is the very odd moment of celebration.
People who don't like football will never be able to understand the emotion that is wrapped up within the love of a football club and it is so much more than a game. It is a way of life, a chance to move focus from the grinds of daily life, a chance to spend time with family and friends cheering on your team. To have that close to being taken away is really tough, and I've experienced that a couple of times with OUFC.
And yes, football will kick you in the b@lls more often than not, but it is all so worth it for those stoppage time winners, those local derby 3 points and the moments you can share with 1000s of your fellow supporters.

Good shout Mostyn, I've been in the same boat where I've lost family members this last 2 years, Covid when we couldn't go, And last season when I couldn't be arsed to go most of the time, Now I believe we have a duty to support this great club of ours once again, PP will be buzzing again in a few weeks time.

What good news. Morris no longer has any say in the way forward of our great club.
MSD should be fully repaid too as part of the deal, and whilst we will never know the ins and outs it should be acknowledged that they hung tough for us, advancing further monies when they had easier pathways to achieve debt repayment.
Thank you to the Clowes group in securing our foundations, and now hopefully they, and any other investors they want to work with, can start the rebuild that is necessary after Morris’s almost total demolition of the Club.

Love the statement, this part here confirms that despite all the speculation and conspiracy theories Quantuma have been working quietly and with the EFL to resolve this. Hopefully everyone can focus on the positives moving forward now ?
also stadium deal sorted last Friday with minimal info (if any) being leaked. Good work after months of delays and miscommunication

I'm going to miss you guys once this thread is wrapped up.
Surely @Boycie wins "Thread of the Year". Or to give it it's full title "The Codezero Award for Most Interactive Topic".
Can we now start a petition to award David Clowes Freedom of the City.
Honourable mentions to both @Curtainsand @RoyMac5for their relentless endeavours in this thread.

I'm delighted to be wrong being a Derby fan. However the fat lady hasn't quite finished the song yet. Still a good reason to have half a pint of mild. Cheers.
