Or has one of the others dropped out and Ashley still considered in ? I thought Appleby and the Binnies, probably with Gadsby waiting in the bushes as he's gone very quiet. It could equally be Krusty the Clown and Sideshow Bob. I got rather lost by December. CBRammette 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which wasn't an exclusive at all. But distracts attention from the Boro and Wycombe logjam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jono Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 What really gets my goat and is the reason I have posted relatively little on this thread is the effing EFL. They have the tools to make this simple, but for their own twisted reasons seem unable to make sensible, equitable judgements / rulings All the bottlenecks are 100% down to the EFL failing to be the voice of leaders. Even without my DCFC hat on they could solve this problem so easily. I am vanishing for now, over to the Hull thread. Everything else is speculation until a bid is accepted and the EFL state where they stand and actually arrange something involving decision making. .. Obviously I remain hopeful that Gibson has an outbreak of uncomfortable piles but that’s a side issue. Gisby and Sparkle 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCFC1388 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 12 weeks for the takeover to be done when a PB is named? Surely with someone so well known the EFL test wont take that long?

Maybe Mel knows that Gibson won’t take him on, or possibly can’t take him on (be there some legal reason or it’s just not feasible). To everyone else (at least in Mel’s mind) it will look like Mel is being the bigger man and trying to rescue his reputation in order to be able to visit Derbyshire in the next 30years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley is still 100% in the race to buy DCFC 2. There's still some nasty journalists out there(shock horror)who have their own agenda 3. Everything else we pretty much knew. Well some fans might have been convinced before that Ashley was interested in buying us but I wasn't. Now we have heard from The Man himself, I'm convinced he is wanting to buy us and this is a shove back at Mel (price of stadium) and Admin (their bill)!

Could it be Alf because Ashley has still not tabled a formal written offer, Q are not counting him as a bidder? I get the feeling that he has made a low verbal offer and that he was the third interested party who was there for a chat at the EFL according to Nixon. His behaviour at the moment is akin to the cat and mouse tactics he plays on the High Street in his pursuit of ailing companies. He flits in and out of negotiations without committing to a formal offer and then at the end if the price is right he comes in with the winning bid. I will not believe he is out of taking over DCFC until the club is sold to another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
