I believe all football debts, like payments to players and other clubs, have to be paid in full regardless of administration or not. It's quite possible our largest debt in owed to Mel, therefore we'd gain nothing from administration. what debt? Mel owes he club £80m for buying PP. All of his funding is not a debt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I agree Mel couldn't possibly have chosen another chancer to take over the club. I refuse to believe such an outlandish story and I'm sure our Spanish friend has already passed the fit and proper persons test. "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

True, but the football debts gets paid before HMRC and hardly ever is there much left in the trough after the gravy train brigade are sated.

All of his funding is not a debt Yes, but that's just 'incorrect' usage of words isn't it. How much would it cost the club to buy back the stadium and the mortgage on the Academy then? And if his funding is not a 'debt' how come he's having such problems selling the club? Edited May 6, 2021 by RoyMac5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of his funding is not a debt I was referring to the amount Cornwall posted earlier in the thread. It would seem sensible to loan the club the club money, rather than inject more equity into something you've agreed to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuwtfly Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 It's really concerning to me that MM has now nearly sold this club to not one chancer, but two. How desperate is he to get rid of us at this stage? Didn't he say at one point that he'd only sell us to the right person? It's getting increasingly hard to believe that now.

The only things I've read regarding it is that Rush and Appleby merged to make a new company, then supposedly was interested in Derby County. But got told by Melvyn to politely “do one” I just can't fathom, whoever Morris’s advisors are, that they simply think to keep going for these chancers. After the last charade surely you would have looked at the business set up by the Ex Wolves chairman who acts as a Football estate Agency and does the proper tests to assure the football club will be in the best hands. As a fan Melvyn, come on mate. Let's start being sensible and do the best for Derby moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of his funding is not a debt We’ll know when we see the accounts. But hasn’t he borrowed money in the company that owns the stadium.
