one_chop Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 It would be pointless announcing any takeover in the last week of the transfer window, prices would be massively inflated for player's. I'm still certain it's not happening. Close the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roboto Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I mean, the transfer window itself closes on 1st Feb, so I guess that's enough reason to hurry up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oomarkwright Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Looks like it will make 450 then before the finish of the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seth's left foot Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I’m certainly not very optimistic that we will see any incomings... unless another one leaves first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitting around waiting for the call that's never coming, almost feels inevitable now. Would that be such a bad thing though ? They strike me as fantasists, “Oh wouldn’t it be a hoot to own a football club” ? Not having the first clue how to close a deal, never mind take the club forward. While I regret it appears Mel has been mucked about, I don’t regret these BSers have not got their mitts on our club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 If I’m a footballer capable of plying my trade in the Championship, Derby are currently the last team I would join. Alright, maybe Forest, but at least I’d get my wages paid on time participating in their poo show. I can’t see our players getting paid in 4 weeks time, can anyone?

MaltRam Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I'd sooner have penury under Mel having turned the cash taps off than chance our fate with these pathetic timewasters. If they wanted the club, had the means to buy it, and the intention to take it forward, they would have done by early January. If any of those three elements are lacking, they'll do unspeakable harm if they do blag their way into ownership. By the way...I've seen a few having a go at Mel. Those people have it all wrong. Tragically wrong. Mel is up there with LP as the best owner we've had in my lifetime. Just needed a dash of luck, is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happened last year with the last failed takeover, didn’t it? I don’t think it’s a case of Mel/the club are out of money, just more of a case of Mel not wanting to add his usual input into the coffers while the takeover is in limbo. My uneducated guess is that either the takeover happens and the players get paid by the new owners or the takeover collapses and we’re back to where we were with Mel keeping things afloat with his backing. Worst case scenario is we get no further down the line with the takeover and we have another weird month of waiting for money to turn up from a source to cover costs. The most important thing is that the takeover deal is concluded in one way or another so we can all move on. The protracted nature is harming the club, it’s reputation and the trust of its staff and fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Anyone remember 10 days ago when we appointed Rooney as permanent manager and some people thought it could be a sign that the takeover was complete...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could make it to 4500 before the deal finishes. Because it’s never going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
