Zag zig Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Don’t like the sound of that, he’s just admitted we are in breach of 17/18 accounts by the EFL interpretation. The administrators will end up having to acquiesce to this for us to move forward. Ramarena 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosmic Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Ha nice one Ed Dawes! ”Did you spend too much and fire managers too quickly?” ”Great question, we could look at Forest…” ”But they’re not in administration!” Rample, ramit, archram and 5 others 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbados Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Wow, he’s now saying Wayne is a first class manager, how good he is. didn’t have the decency to tell him you were going into administration though did you Mel! r_wilcockson, Rammy03 and LeedsCityRam 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elwood P Dowd Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 What can he say to mitigate his position he was the man in charge. He thought he was doing his best for the club but he took too many gambles that didn’t payoff. Nishfan, Miggins and angieram 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norman Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Ed Dawes is doing a good job so far. Every time Mel says 'Good question', it translates to 'that's another uncomfortable question, you Bamford' Foxy Ram and Rammy03 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yani P Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Cocu was your man..you gave him a season and a bit..you can't do that.. Financially yes. I'm not going to talk about this..in the right circumstances Philip would have done an excellent job..then blames Covid. CBRammette 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamworthram Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 So far, he has made some valid points (Amortisation policy, non accountants declaring whether a policy is compliant or not and the fact that clubs like Derby would have been harder by Covid than “some” others) but not enough to convince most of us that he is primarily responsible I would imagine.

Ramos Posted September 19, 2021 Author Share Posted September 19, 2021 (edited) I was sort of hoping we would actually talk about the administration and gain a better understanding of the process to come and some reassurances (that may be hard to believe coming from mel) that the club is going to survive all this. so far this conversation is something I’d be happy to hear the ins and outs of in maybe 10 years but right now I want to know what’s going to happen.

eccles the ram Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Mel states 8 teams still have parachute payments plus 3 teams coming up from Division 1. That still leaves 12 other teams plus Derby! Why aren't they going into Administration due to Covid? Regarding the £8.3 million loan, no reasonable reason given except wanting an extension of time to sort things out with the EFL?!!!! Amortisation - still sticking to his guns. Comes over as quite arrogant saying'that's a great question!'WTF! Sorry switched off as I don't want to listen to this bs anymore! COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But accept may not be able to say them publicly. Said talks with efl are ongoing to ensure we are not punished for the same thing numerous times.
