El DerbyCo

Recommended Posts

Although I'm still processing my grief concerning the loss of the 'Abu Derby County' thread, I'm encouraged by the 'El DerbyCo' thread thus far. 

We've had far right Spanish politics, unsubstantiated Twitter rumours, smiling Indonesian businessmen, a debate on Ryan Conway's reliability and mention of Jeremy Corbyn.

The old thread was often completely random and off-topic, and this one is keeping on the tradition. Love it!

Looks like he’s done an interview with a Spanish newspaper regarding the takeover.

Says the deal could be even be closed as early as tomorrow:

Only words yes but sounds promising in 1 days he’s been more vocal than the fake Sheikh let’s just hope there’s no dramas with this let’s just hope if it’s going to happen it actually happens and before the summer because that is massive

In brief - 

Judge him by his work not his words

Will have help from someone who has worked at Real Madrid and is a big name in football

Firstly we need to stay in the league but manager and players have his full support

Message to all Derby fans, appreciate all words from fans and good times will return

Wants to be confirmed as soon as possible

If the bloke really is dubious I imagine he will be boiled alive by the Media and Social Media, and I would HOPE the EFL tests would flag him up.

The Fake Sheikh wasn't. I can't remember any media source pointing to him being a tyre kicker. They were just as silent as that Newcastle fan said they would be.

That was a very strange and slightly uncomfortable interview. As intriguing as it is worrying.

I suppose he can’t say too much and the interview was at very short notice, I’d prefer to be cautiously positive and say kudos to him for speaking out when he could easily of refused.

Interesting interview. He didn’t have to do it.

Clearly aware that “we need BIG investment” I am happy to wait and see if “Good times will return” no reason to doubt his intentions. 
 

I did notice he stuttered a wee bit when Rooney was brought up, that might be interesting
