Can you imagine the hoo-ha from certain other EFL club owners if we have this further points deduction applied in such a way that it has no effect? It will either be applied so as to relegate us this season, or to handicap us next season, I have no doubt about it.

We will know through the the official/local journalist channels when there is something to know! It's peoples insatiable appetite to appear or be the 1st to know duck all, Big Trav and Barrytheannon like to put it out there that they have heard from someone ITK or someone that is at the top table so to speak, when really they know nowt, If I'd get information I'd know the person who gave it me, I'd know what they're like and so there would be no BS.

Ian Buxton's Bat Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 34 minutes ago, Chester40 said: So then, the theory is that he was genuine all along. He tried to get it done ASAP but the deal he offered wasn't as good as the administrators thought they could get elsewhere. He walks away and considers Preston where he feels he could get better value. The administrators have realised they can't get a better offer and Mel/council have been pushed to sweeten the deal to no avail. Kirchner comes back to the table and they snatch his hand off now? It does kinda make sense...but I'm still confused. Who were they referring to about time wasting? Is it him and this is all fantasy...or is it Ashley who has kept hinting at an offer but actually now they realise he is just waiting for a deal that saves him every last penny and in the meantime they seem inept as the deadline keeps being missed and the offer is worse than the Kirchner one they could have accepted in December? We didn't know it at the time but no bids were actual bids back then (i.e. couldn't be put forward to the EFL) because of the Boro and Wycombe situation. I suspect if the EFL had told Boro and Wycome to do one pre-Xmas then he may well have closed the deal. Whether that would have meant -15 points and nailed on relegation I don't know. All hypothetical - but fingers crossed it goes through now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only enough, the rule is only enough points to get us relegated the rest are carried over. So in true Derby weirdness, we end up trying to lose games at the end of the season!

Animal is a Ram Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I'm struggling to find information about the penalty for not exiting administration correctly on the EFL's site. A tidbit from the Leyton Orient Fans' Trust says: Quote If a club is unable to pay its creditors the threshold of 35p, but can meet a much lower figure then what happens regarding any points deduction? It is applied at a time determined by the EFL Board but ordinarily at the commencement of the following season 35p is stated because you can do 35p/£ over three years. As nice as it would be to start in L1 on 0, I don't see this happening, especially this late on in the season... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kathcairns Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 9 hours ago, Kernow said: I have no idea why the EFL would agree to deduct another 15 points now, so it leaves us with a clean slate next season. We’re very likely to be relegated without any more deductions, and even still, if we stayed up and had -15 with further restrictions on who we can bring in, we’ll be more likely to lose players and suffer another long season battling the impossible. I genuinely think we’d be in a stronger position as a Club if we started clean in League One, than with a points deduction & more restrictions in the Championship. I think the EFL did'nt want us to go into liqidation, just want us relegated. So if give us _15 this season,start next season with a clean slate will make them look a lot better after the complete mess they have made this season.

Would be a bit ironic if the EFL eventually does us the favour we need to start afresh next season. Much as I would love the fight against relegation to continue, another season fighting almost impossible odds in the Championship with a much weaker squad than we even currently have, would sap the strength out of even the staunchest of supporters.

CornwallRam Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 It looks like this is now the end game. Kirchner will have to make a solid bid and tie things up quickly if we're going to play in a league next season - there's no time for messing about. If any of the other potential bidders are really that interested, then the next hour is the time to blow Kirchner out of the water. I also feel like we only have time for one preferred bidder - if it is Kirchner and he fails, we'll be liquidated. Whichever way it goes, I think it'll be quick from here on in.

Mostyn6 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 just calm down though folks, not wanting to be the party-pooper, but "preferred bidder" and "new owner" are still a quantum leap apart.
