No, it's likely a sensible option to get more than one avenue of funding in case one breaks down. I was saying that in reference to what radioactive waste said and in general at the situation.

Their fans can see it, surely the staff and even players can see it, it's like there is one megalomaniac at the top that will not budge but nobody wants to upset him in case he tells them off! Has anybody sent an email to them? have we got a temple with the key points and facts?

StarterForTen Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Three bidders are confirmed. Could it be that the mysterious third bidder is actually Mel? The question raised in the EFL statement about identifying the preferred bidder before dealing with the club claims made me think that they may be worried Mel is still on the scene. They may be worried that he’s about to ‘have them on strings’ after all. Maharan and jimtastic56 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question I have is that if they decide the claims are football creditors isn't that game over for DCFC because no one will take the risk... Bit like mediation, if (heaven forbid) the independent arbitrator upholds the claim, it's game over again, I think. The stakes are so high right now - it's no surprise there's a lot of posturing going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePrisoner Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 On the topic of Mel ‘helping out’… can he legally? He put the company into administration?

PistoldPete Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 44 minutes ago, Leeds Ram said: Btw am I the only one confused why the administrators have presented funding scenarios to the efl rather than simply getting the funding scenario that is most pleasing for the preferred bidder and best for the club? Because EFL don't know their own rules, we have to cover all bases. If you we give anything to Boro and Wycombe that may please the EFL in their quandary over football creditor issue, but we run into problems with the other creditors which could mean further penalties. Which seems unfair so we need to understand whether EFL would apply those extra penalties in that scenario. It's complicated as the Quantuma statement says.

YouRams Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 (edited) Fed up of arguing with brainless ****** fans on twitter, the bitterness from not getting Buchanan on the cheap is embarrassing. Apparently we have to sell players it’s the only way it’s all on us for “cheating” nothing to do with the EFL Boro or Wycombe. Having a sister club buying your players for you to bend FFP rules is a loophole that one day the EFL could decide is “cheating”-and against their make it up as you go along rule book, they should be careful what they wish for.
