Presumably if the two clubs don’t take up MMs offer then he could indemnify the bidders against any costs resulting from the claims thereby removing the perceived risk to the new owners.

Mine’s 10th.  Here’s hoping ?

There’s a lot to process in that statement, but the bit about the scheduling of the ‘Boro hearing is genuinely astonishing, given what’s been said by them and the EFL. We’ve been trying to schedule it since they made the claim, but the earliest their counsel was available was May 2022…

Mel's letter is really well written compared to the Gibson whiny claptrap.

It's VERY critical of the EFL. That's for sure. But the most important bit, for now, is the last paragraph.
Mel vs. Middlesbrough and Wycombe in the High Court.
Not DCFC, Mel.
He's finally doing something right. Let's not hail him as a hero mind.

MFC have issued a statement, surprisingly they agree with the EFL that their claim is a football debt.

Once I got past all the drivel, this bit at the end stuck out……
A significant focus of MFC’s claim against Derby County relates to the sale of Derby County’s stadium and the belief that it was done in a way which manipulated the Profit and Sustainability Rules.
The valuation of PP has been accepted by the LAP/DC, the EFL didn’t appeal this and MFCs original claim for £40M on the basis of the stadium was rejected by the LAP in October 2020.  Surely, if the basis of the claim is the same, they’re playing into the admins hands?  Perhaps @Brailsford Ram can advise as you seem knowledgable in this area?

I’ve seen a couple of posters mention Parkrun.  Getting outside for a bit of exercise is really good for mental health.  There’s quite a few in the local area and I regularly do the Conkers Parkrun at Moira.  It’s free, it’s fun and you can do it at your own pace.  If you don’t fancy the run or walk you can volunteer and still get the benefit of the fresh air!!
Here’s a link to the Parkrun website, have a look and you might find one near you.

And if you ever turn up at Conkers you might see me with a crazy Cocker Spaniel!!

This ⬆️ 
Regardless of the valuation something is only worth what someone is willing to pay. 

FAO Mr Gibson.
"The first charge is dismissed"

Alan Nixon clearly knows a lot about what is going on - the main quibble has been that he's been dishing out the info in something akin to Times crossword clues.
However it does seem like it's national come off the fence day.
First the EFL - nailing their colours to the good ship Steve-Stephen-Stevie and then Nixon speaking clearly....... literally calling Wycombe ambulance chasers and having a pop at the size of Steve-Stephen-Stevie's claim.
It's long overdue and welcome.

Waste of time writing statements just get on with the next stage - get to court 

I think if anything it is quite a relief that a large part of their claim is based on something that DCFC were categorically cleared of.
So we have two claims. One moaning that Derby’s accounts were submitted within an EFL permitted timeframe. And one moaning that Derby sold their stadium despite a categorical not guilty verdict on that. These are holding the takeover up, meaning we cannot sign players, cannot give players new contracts (so are losing them for sweet FA) and are facing liquidation. Meanwhile the EFL sit there and say “yes but technically if they win they will be football creditors” which by law isn’t even true.
Good stuff.

Today Nicko seems to be bashing the B/WW claim trolls.

In a way that has been investigated, examined by due process and found to have not broken the profit and sustainability rules?
 

Well, the Gibbon probably co wrote it so no surprise…

Middlesbrough statement shortly after the EFL statement and fresh comments from Couhig in the press, all echoing the same sentiments, all trying to push focus back onto the admins and Morris. It’s clear they are ganging up to try and force the issue in their favour. Unlike some I am pleased by the admins decision not to engage them on their claims, and hope they do pursue things legally and get the claims shut down for good.

Except nowhere do the EFL say Boro's claim is a debt. Lots of neat wordplay going on with both of them. The bit at the end just highlights the vendetta angle from Boro.
