Spread over the next 100 years so we start on -35 or -36 for each season (depending on if it's a leap year) and still have no chance to hand contracts to any players.

IslandExile Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I'm not sure why everyone is getting so excited about there being news today. I thought the timetable was: (New) Deadline for bids today Consider bids (again) over the weekend and probably into next week Submit PB to EFL PB rejected by the EFL Announcement that everyone is doing all they can Back to Square 1 (again) Carl Sagan and jimtastic56 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May Contain Nuts Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, RAM1966 said: No - Morris ignored Boro and Wycombe, had he not have done so this would have been sorted long before. That's on the assumption that Gibson was willing to settle the matter any earlier, in the same manner as happened in the end. I wouldn't bank on him being entirely truthful about his position though. There was always a plan from EFL/Gibson to make it nigh-on impossible for us to move forward before the transfer window closed and we were in as weak a position as possible.

MackworthRamIsGod Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Surely Mel getting Derby again would be like giving your e-type jag to Albert looms, all because it needed 2 new tyres and an oil change. Letting them rough it up and buying it back, albeit a fair bit cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He cannot get away with how he has treated the club, it's staff and the people of this city. He has treated the lot with absolute contempt.

Folk will only have got their hopes up if they’d foolishly read “select a preferred bidder” as “announce a preferred bidder”. Can’t wait for the usual barrage of “another missed deadline” posts.

kingsy1884 Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I had it on good authority that it was MM intention from the start of admin to stick around DCFC and somehow remain as owner presumably with less debt and the EFL / Gibson off our backs. I was a little sceptical about this information but this has certainly backed it a bit in recent days. Imo it's madness but then again this is DCFC so nothing is off the table.

Sparkle Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 3 hours ago, Oldben said: Factoring in a 15 point deduction next season, potentially with restrictions on purchasing players. Then Factoring in at least two seasons in League one, under above circumstances. Zero return on highly expensive investment in purchasing the club. Potentially doing a Leeds and taking 3 years to return to the Championship from league one, then trying to survive with almost zero budget for new players over that 3 year period, as spent available funds on purchasing the club. League one will see significantly lower return from attendances. I wonder what season tickets cost will be, clearly lower than championship season ticket prices so that will mean lower revenue for the club. Then if restrictions placed on what derby can spend on new players with over half the current team either leaving and many of those remaining not being good enough for league one. On the positive side, at least there will still be a club. I can’t see season tickets being lower in league one - it should be but it won’t be happening certainly not initially Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
