There is a downside in that we have a low wage bill. We lack quality and numbers all of which will need to be paid for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The alternative is a high wage bill and have to hope you can slash it massively to fall in line with their own budget as well as helping Rooney fund a team he wants.

Ghost of Clough Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 On 14/06/2021 at 15:51, MackworthRamIsGod said: How many clubs, when being purchased, have 14 first team players, 1 of which has an ACL injury and the another has ongoing issues which has written off the best part of 2 years of football. They are going to need to chuck a few quid at it to get us competitive. How many Championship clubs have a wage bill as low as ours in relation to (non-covid) revenue? Hint: none Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are probably nearer the mark in a couple more years especially if he continues to play in the premiership and his defending improves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you reach those figures (barring in mind the 'free' STs? 17/18 was: Match receipts = £9.1m TV = £8.1m Commercial = £4m Sponsorship = £5m Other = £3m Total of £29.6m (not including player sales), and sponsorship income would have increased with the arrival of Frank and then Rooney.

If money was so tight I'd imagine they would wait for a takeover to be done before filling positions and certainly cant imagine they would create new positions.

KBB Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Since other thread gone does anyone here have any info regards the American, Miami heat+leonsis twitter rumours. Very quiet at the moment in the press and from the club official lines so I'm clinging to the hope they are desperate to keep a deal quiet. The topklobber guy on twitter doesn't have a history of wind ups or rumour posts seems a decent bloke (dont know him personally) so he has a few people, like me, clinging on to his tweet.

There has to be some truth in it. Ted Leonsis has been mentioned lots, he likes owning stadiums that can double as performance venues so maybe he sees Pride Park as a latest edition to his portfolio, who knows. Mike Horton is a fair shout too. I've read more than one person suggesting a local businessman had joined forces with an American consortium, so this ties in with that. The one I find strange is this Mickey Arison bloke, multi-billionaire, could easily buy out Man United, Liverpool etc and here he is linked with us. Although, his name is so far fetched, who knows.

Elwood P Dowd Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 I’m inclined to think that if serious buyers were in the process of buying Derby then they would be professional enough to keep their business activities quiet until everything had been concluded. The problem with “No News” is that it is neither good or bad, it’s simply neutral, hence the comfort I take from the first sentence in this post? archram, hintonsboots and Comrade 86 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
