Heisenberg 977 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Looks like he’s done an interview with a Spanish newspaper regarding the takeover.

Olton Ram 1,318 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 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!

It is poor and overpriced recruitment by previous managers that are largely responsible for the recent financial position. Given he owns a football agency, it would be easy to put 2 and 2 together here... RadioactiveWaste 1 Link to post Share on other sites

ollycutts1982 1,956 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 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 Derby4Me, Ted McMinn Football Genius, Carnero and 1 other 1 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

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.

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.

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 Hector was the best 1 Link to post Share on other sites

CBRammette 1,171 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Just have feeling of doom about this. Not based on anything but instinct especially having just googled Matt Southall. Wouldnt it be great if something simple and lovely happened to our club for once. Really fed up with it WhiteHorseRam, jimtastic56 and Kinder 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites
