    If Mel fell on his sword, who would pay the ongoing bills until a takeover goes through?

    You see the relief of Stephen Pearce and Mel at full time against Sheffield Wednesday and you think well the club must still be in a salvageable position. If we were ducked anyway, why was there that reaction last week? Maybe I am wrong but at this point I think the media are putting out vague statements without truly knowing what is going on.

    Hard to sell anything football related when there is a pandemic going on for any club - whilst our troubles are being enflamed by the national media other clubs must be in similar positions but any potential owner would think ( mistakenly) that they could sell 28-30,000 tickets to us lot.
    there is a major football reset occurring this summer with so many players being released who will not get other jobs because the money simply will not be coming in and no club can guarantee selling players anymore as well as being unable to afford loan fees.
    the parachute clubs will be be so far away from the rest this season it will be staggering

    Beat me to finding/posting the tweet by about 20 seconds!
    Some fans really seem to enjoy sticking the boot in to their own club. Things are bad enough without doing that.

    I've seen that phrase used a few times recently on here.
    Tabloid scum like the Mail exist because people trot out that phrase.
    If you were accused of a crime you didn't commit, would you want to be judged by someone who believed there is never smoke without fire?

    The article also talks about ongoing losses of x amount
    haven’t we got only about 10 players registered to the club ?
    ok not quite that but we must have a pretty low wage bill 
    look at forest for instance the have more centre midfielders on their books than we have registered players

    As long as they are clear with their intentions , might even get to sign Paddy O'Doors.

    I'd call utter bullhit on £8m to Cocu & Co (it was a mutual agreement, they didn't ask for their contracts paid up) & anything, let alone £20m, to HMRC
    ducking idiots still just taking Kieran Maguire's estimates as truth is my guess
    "One source said" - I wonder which Bamford name Kieran that is?

    Its all bollux. The only debt is what Mel decides is debt. Mel could demand a few million or he could let some one take over for nowt.
     
    The Mail haven't got a clue what's going on.

    Some of the puma kits in the mid 90s had gold piping on and they were some of my favourite kits. Most of the stuff we have now is so boring - just feels like I could get a plain white shirt and draw a ram on it and it would be virtually the same as the home shirt - there is no creativity in any of them recently

    After a character in a tv programme apparently but even at 61 I’m too young to remember it . Quick bit of google the character was Zak Bishop , the programme United but might need a more senior Ram to reveal all

    Thanks to the interweb I can tell you!
    On the 4 May 1968 we played Blackpool at home in the last game of the season and lost 3-1 to finish 18th on Goal difference.  Ipswich (the other East Anglian team) were champions that year. We won 13 matches all season and lost 19. Interestingly, considering Brian's mantra was to start at the back, we shipped 78 goals.  Mind, we scored 71!
    There were 5 players in that final team that we would all recognise as being part of our first great side - Roy Mac, John Robson, Alan Hinton, Kevin and John O'Hare.  Kevin, of course wasn't a Cloughie signing, he was Tim Ward's greatest legacy.  Also in the team were Reg Matthews, Mick Hopkinson, Pat Wright, Jim Walker, Arthur Stewart and Richie Barker.  Barker and Walker did have (smaller) parts to play in our future success. Ron Webster was also at the club and Alan Durban but not in the squad.
    There is a good argument to make to say that as a team we never really took off until Sir Brian signed Willie Carlin from Sheffield Utd part way through the 68/69 season.  He provided the feistiness, leadership and midfield control that we could probably do with next season.  He was a small and bloodyminded, shop steward of a scouser and we were to replace him with a small and bloodyminded, shop steward of a scot in Archie Gemmill.  Put either in our current side and you would see a huge difference.
    When we look back we see only success but - and it might appear to be heresy now - there were many who doubted Roy McFarland's abilities, Alan Hinton who couldn't tackle and John O'Hare who was too slow. Kevin was a hero from his debut onwards and the undoubted star of the team. There were certainly many on the terraces who objected to Brian's brashness and that he didn't deliver in his first season what he promised. The 67/68 team produced worse than Tim Ward's teams.  Had social media been around there would have been a vigorous Clough Out campaign.  
    You forget too that these were the days before the internet and worldwide TV - when every single player of almost any age is widely known about - so that Brian and Peter could go and steal Roy from Tranmere under Liverpool's noses; and you forget too that the Transfer Window is a recent thing so that, in those days you could sign anyone at any time.  In many ways it made life easier for a manager and less expensive for a club. There were no agents, no cameras outside club gates and no deadline day.

    Does anyone know if Maguire tweets about other clubs and grasses other clubs up to the EFL or is it just us?
    Just wondering if he has ever raised concerns with owners owning 2 clubs internationally and using this to transfer players to get around, and make a mockery of P&S.
    Also has he asked the EFL to check when a chairman who owns 2 clubs transfers a player, say from Greek clubs, how are the values calculated, are they realistic values based on current market value, or over/under inflated to help with P&S.
    What about owners transferring debt from the club to their own private business. Glass houses Mr Gibbo.
    Maguire seems so up on financial issues with Derby you would hope he is on the pulse with all other 23 championship clubs.
