I suspect he would admit it himself that, apart from bringing the money in, he’s a business man with no knowledge of the football side of running this club. If he’s happy with the recruitment side of things last season then why would he want to change the recruitment team? I reckon the only person/people who might want to change things is the new permanent manager (or DoF if we get one) not DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ineptitude of Quantuma and the EFL, as well as the Sports Minister for not intervening? Seems too little too late, now. It would be good once we are out of it, to keep the pressure on the EFL and make them pay for their incompetence. Indyram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alram Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 you would be correct in saying our revenues are an advantage in league one yes, but we will also have debts to pay which will take a large chunk out of those revenues unless clowes is willing to wipe all debts but i cant see that happening unforuntaely. we still owe a lot of money to football creditors which will have to go out of accounts so anybody expecting us to start spending any amount of money on transfer fees will probably be mistaken. i-Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many years do we get to pay them off , I thought they had to be paid in full on the point of take over i.e in the purchase price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's already taken account of in the accounts? So won't be a FFP issue as in having to record these debts this season for example? And the cash will already be accounted for as part of the bid? I agree with shouldn't be spending anything on fees and run the club within its means, but these won't impact the day to day running, finances or this year's accounts?

The money DC is paying the administrators has to be used to pay the football creditors in full and then an agreement with the non-football creditors, which will be made up from immediate payments out of the purchase cost and staged payments to meet the agreed final total. Whether these staged payments will have to be covered by Derby's income or further payments direct from the new owner, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CornwallRam Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 I'm going to assume the best and hope to see Clowes complete the takeover today or tomorrow. If that proves to be correct, it's amazing how uncomplicated it suddenly seems to have become. As soon as someone appears with the will and the finances, the deal breezes through. No bank holiday issues, no complaints in the press about being ignored by Quantuma, nothing held up by anti-money laundering checks etc It's almost like the others were cheapskates or fantasists. angieram, Ewetube, Turnstile and 12 others 3 1 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
