We already know Mel wants £20 mill for the stadium. If the administrators want £50 mill for the club and the stadium that leaves £30 mill to pay the rest of the debts. HMRC on its own is approx £30 mill, so either no other creditors get a single penny or you are being a tad over dramatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hintonsboots Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 I would like to flag up that Quantuma have said 4-5 days re a preferred bidder. A new one to add to the list ?. Curtains, Rammy03, David Graham Brown and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee SCREAMER !! Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 19 minutes ago, RipleyRich said: Not necessarily. £30m including the Stadium wont touch the minimum requirements to exit administration and satisfy Legal and EFL requirements. Therefore Quantuma cant accept it. If the Binnies won't go higher they are out. Quantuma have said negotiations are ongoing and it can only be hoped that the remaining parties will go higher. It speculates in the article that nearer £50m is required. My guess was £55m based upon reading the Creditor list and the supposed loans etc. As I understood it from the initial Radio report the offer was 28 million not including the stadium. Perhaps he wants to sell rather than lease. Would be odd if their covering MSD payments though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That line should maybe make a few people think, especially those who were criticising the admins for not selling more players and slashing costs. I think that is a bit of a cheap and easy line though - I don’t think the players sold materially affect the vale of the club? And Shinnie and Jagielka the only ones who left who affected the first team’s chances of survival if that’s what they mean, arguably only Jagielka even given Shinnie would’ve been a bit part player. Dont mean this to say we should’ve sold more, just an easy line to use when your offer wasn’t enough. Foxy Ram, Indyram and RoyMac5 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curtains Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) 30 Million would mean 15 point penalty so not enough. That’s why Administrators want 50 Million I think the Stadium will be leased from Mel who will pay MSD PS That’s my theory Edited March 10, 2022 by Curtains Added Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May Contain Nuts Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) Got to laugh at the Binnies really. They think they've put in offer that matches how the squad/club has been devalued, and they're not willing to put in enough to avoid a 15 point penalty next season. A points penalty next season would massively devalue what they've bought, and risk a severe chance of us ending up in League Two in two years, which would devalue what they've bought further still. Is the lowball offer really worth the risk? Surely better to at least attempt to avoid the -15 next season and actually have a League One club in two years rather than a League Two club.

Quantuma have an obligation to the creditors to keep the offer open as long as possible. By The Binnies setting the deadline for an answer, the creditors can be satisfied that there was no possibility of their bid being increased. Quantuma’’s work load just reduced as there is one less bid to deal with. Let’s hope the other one or two don’t pull out too. Or reduce their offers jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarterForTen Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 The Binnies were carpet baggers looking to buy DCFC on the low ball, put it back on its feet and flip it for a few million profit within two years. They were bidders of last resort and the fact they are no longer at the table should bring more comfort than anguish.

IslandExile Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) Everyone is celebrating the thread reaching 1000 pages. Meanwhile Rome burns, the Titanic sinks and we lose another prospective bidder. If there were only two bids submitted by the Administrators' own deadline, does that mean the other one is the Preferred Bidder - by default? If so, why haven't they been named? Or are they now - standing alone - realising it's a buyers' market and, consequently, reducing the value of their bid? Or maybe there just isn't any other bidder.

They went for £2m tops, but could have gone for far more if we weren't under pressure to sell. EnigmaRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
