    It's also remarkable that this 'source' - let's call then Phnarry - is shocked and stunned by a championship club having £60m of total debts, but apparently completely cool with another championship club demanding £40m compensation from a liquidation-threatened rival for finishing seventh rather than sixth.

    Sky does on-the-record interview with Parry about how they are the good guys who will 'work night and day' to save Derby.
    In the same story, 'a source' regurgitates old figures to paint Derby as a massive financial basket case that no one would buy.
    Whoever could this source possibly be?
    If only we had a shortlist of senior people involved in league football that the journalist had spoken to that day!

    Need details on exactly what "legal decision" they are seeking.
    That said, it does kind of suggest that the Boro and Wycombe claims are the central problem, despite what Gibson might say. It still seems likely to me that if those claims were withdrawn or quashed, the sale would go through fairly smoothly.

    we need a ruling that if a club breaches FFP, the only sanction under the rules comes from the EFL . And so clubs can't sue each other 
    The EFL needs this almost as much as we do. 
    Without this ruling, anyone buying the club will think - well, there's Boro and Wycombe, and who else... ?   We know the Binnies have apparently agreed to proceed regardless of the claims  But what are their conditions?  As one poster has suggested, do they require a warranty from someone (MM?) that the claims won't result in a liability in excess of [   ] ? Or that there aren't any others ...
    Inclined to agree the main issue is Gibson, but people keep banging on about HMRC.  Well if the plan now is to cram HMRC into a 25% compromise, HMRC will say, hang on we need to be put ahead of other unsecured creditors, so tell us this : you held cash on our behalf, where is it? Did the people spending the cash not understand that it was held on trust? And is there any reason we should not sue the club, and any person who authorised the expenditure, for breach of trust ?

    I suppose it's impossible to tell. They might have made a lot of progress or none. What I find incredibly frustrating is the way all parties - even the MPs - hide behind "commercial confidentiality" and "it's a complex situation" as an excuse to say nothing about anything of consequence.
    Is there a good reason, for example, the MPs couldn't give us a summary of what they think the main problems are, and how they think they should be resolved? What they think of the Boro and Wycombe claims, and whether they are a major stumbling block? Whether they think the EFL should say whether Boro and Wycombe are football creditors? And so on.
    It's ridiculous how little we actually know about what's happening, what the disagreements are, and how our political representatives - having heard from both sides - think they should be resolved.
    "It's complex" - yeah, we know, that's why we need you to explain it to us, having heard from both sides.
    "Commercially confidential" - some bits, but not necessarily the bits we are interested in. And if the EFL and/or administrators are insisting you say nothing about anything as a condition of having meetings, let's hear that. And let's hear you complaining about it.

    If the administrators are going down the legal route to make the EFL accountable for their actions against Derby then as a last resort I'm all for it 
    The EFL intransigence is the route cause of all of this .

    "We had complex discussions about complex issues, and we plan to have some more."
    I was actually quite annoyed by the blithe statement that key issues were "well known". No, they really aren't. We know bits and pieces picked up from media leaks and partial statements. We are looking to the MPs to listen to both sides and clarify the details!

    Once again Wayne Rooney standing head and shoulders above the Admins, EFL, Mel, local MPs, etc.
    A clear and concise update, in fact best one I’ve heard from anyone for a few days.
    Just going to focus on Sundays game now, looking forward to attending along with my youngest son.

    Rooney:
    "I've just come off the phone with them (administrators) five mins ago. Where we are at, there is no big update I can give you.
    There will be no players leaving.
    They have reassured me Tom Lawrence will not be going and that is pleasing because he is a player I want to keep.
    Everton approached my agent and asked me to interview for the vacant job which I turned down. I have a job here I am doing, which is an important job to me and that means me getting the team ready for Sunday."

    Not that it mattered. Morris decided he would bolster the squad with a huge outlay on Bielik. The man had lost the financial plot. Good job COVID came along though. Gave him a great cover story.
