Tyler Durden Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 (edited) Finally received a reply from Ruth Edwards MP nearly a month after writing to her. Reply was so full of waffle won't even bore you with the details. She's probably not heard of association football to be fair to her, if it were equestrian sports or jolly hockey sticks or fox hunting then probably would have got a far more helpful reply. Ho hum.

Crewton Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 43 minutes ago, Gee SCREAMER !! said: However, Richard Gould, the club's chief executive, described to Telegraph Sport how the Covid-inflicted collapse in transfer values in the second tier has cost the club £30 million alone. He seems oblivious to the fact that they haven't got players anyone would have been willing to pay £30m for even before the pandemic. Maybe we can discuss how much money not being able to extend youth players contracts alone has cost Derby this season.....? r_wilcockson and Gee SCREAMER !! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure a professor said that player amortisation values are only based on their worth playing for the club not on their resale value in the LAP finding us guilty. They should only be able to claim a Covid related writedown if they catch Covid and can't play. I'll be quoting this at Rick when he agree to everyones transfer losses as Covid related, and suggest if he allows it it will undermine the LAP findings against us. r_wilcockson, Indy, Crewton and 3 others 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atherstoneram Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 On 13/02/2022 at 18:14, Tyler Durden said: The people interested in the club arent philanthropists they are doing it because they think they can lever some benefit for themselves hence the price has to be right. If they think are going to have to pay more for the club than they think it's worth then they'll simply walk away and look to progress something else, they haven't made their money by getting involved in random bidding wars. They'll all know what an acceptable price is for the acquisition, if it goes beyond that then they'll just move on. True, people are getting ahead of themselves now that the situation between the Two egotists has been resolved, there is still a massive amount of debt and if they don't want to cover that then they walk away, the deal for the club won't be any cheaper.

Maybe an automatic contract renewal at the same rate. In which case it does make financial sense if not football sense I'd heard he was about to trigger playing bonuses owed to him, not sure how true that is.

Don’t want you getting a repetitive strain injury that might cause you to sue the efl. I had a deja but moment as well, but thing is … Olly is right.

He is here to do a job and as he has said will see it through, that doesn't mean he has more attachment. He is doing a great job but who is to say the eventual new owner will want him to stay on.

Guest Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 So, had another response from the EFL, asked when they would be charging Middlesbrough with bringing the game into disrepute with regard to their unfounded allegations of another member club 'systematically cheating'. The EFL response:- Generally speaking, if any Club wishes to bring a matter to the attention of the EFL in relation to any of our regulations then they can do so. So it appears that you can do whatever you want as long as another club does not report you? I have responded asking why they need someone else to point it out to them, when the statement was released into the public domain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where does it say it has to be another Club that brings a breach to the attention of the EFL? Why can't you or I do it, or anyone, or maybe even the EFL using its own initiative?

Why can't you or I do it, or anyone, or maybe even the EFL using its own initiative? Well, there's probably quite a few more realistic scenrios to go through before that possibility enters the debate. "At an EFL board meeting the league has come to the decision to suspend all fixtures following the nuclear war. A spokesman said "this was a difficult decision to come to, but having been given submissions by our new coackroach overlords and with the widespread destuction of almost every major population centre in the UK it seems unrealistic to expect clubs to fulfill fixtures at this time. At the behest of Steve Gibson, points deductions from the before times will still apply to Derby County. The league will work together with all parties to find a long term future for the 72 clubs, but will not be pressured into issuing any iodine tablets outside of the executive level leadership team."
