G STAR RAM Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Just wondering how we smash FFP out of sight in 2018/19 given that we made a profit of £25m in 2017/18? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the reason he is not putting a bid in to buy the club is because he got no thanks the first time around. Boycie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time he was a very small part of the Gadsby consortium and got his money back- I assume with a nice profit- on promotion as agreed when he came in. It was effectively a short term loan rather than investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad twit. One team in Bristol- guess that's us then as they talk about fook all else.? Scrap that. I'm now an attention seeking idiot. He's gone to the trouble of upgrading me bless him. At least I'm keeping him from his normal hobby of cutting out pictures of Mel's head for his scrapbooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyMac5 Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 From new Daily Mail article, after ALL the poo throwing at the club at the start of of the piece,, they can still say hidden towards the end of the article: “The timescale on this remains unclear and sources say it could be that they escape with a fine for the breach of accountancy practice.” WTF!

They since divorced. I think Marples had to sell his house at Morley (https://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/news/Derby-news/Derby-3aaa-2126094) and also his place in Florida (https://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/news/Derby-news/founder-collapsed-Derby-firm-3aaa-2151705).

Pearl Ram Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 17 hours ago, Rammy03 said: Wow is he alright? "New charges eh?? That would be fantastic, I've not found the piece, but new charges would be excellent." Why is he so bothered I really couldn’t tell you why he is so bothered Rammy. But he’s gone to a lot of trouble so it wouldn’t surprise me if he’s actually been in touch with the EFL himself. I just wonder if he was as enthusiastic when Leicester, Bournemouth and QPR strayed off the straight and narrow. Oh, wait a minute...didn’t we knock Bristol City out of the play offs in the last game of a season about three or four years back leaving them in seventh place when they looked a shoe in for sixth ? Maybe that’s it. ?♂️ Rammy03 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
