Rev Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 10 minutes ago, Woodypecker said: Coming into old age, infirm, also having promising managements poached (McLaren, Rowett, Lampard) by predatory clubs, with the club's potential unravelling before his eyes despite the investment, it's worth understanding that personal fatigue and ill-health. He's fit as a butchers dog, ask @Mostyn6, who noted his muscular physique bulging against his clothing. You make it sound like he's on his last legs. As for the manager's, you know full well he sacked McClaren twice. He certainly didn't put any obstacles in Rowetts way when Stoke made their move, either. He couldn't believe his luck, and probably bundled him into the car and drove him to Stoke himself. The reality is, he got sick of losing cash hand over fist, not unreasonably, and placed us into administration to stem his losses. He had one job, and one job only as custodian, and that was to leave the club in no worse state than he found it. He failed miserably in that, due to his ego, impatience and a bloody minded-ness that wouldn't accept a correction was needed. ck-, Norman, LeedsCityRam and 8 others 4 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely their remit is to choose the bid that pays the most to creditors? That statement does give me hope though, as Mel Morris is most definitely not in any way good for the long term future of Derby County. Nor is Appleby, if he is still ringing round his mates looking for backers. Mike Ashley is the only person we are aware of that is able to spend his own money. Unless the 4th bidder is Richard Branson. Derby4Me, RipleyRich, Kathcairns and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody can seriously think the admins would allow the backer to be Mel. They’d be finished as a company when it came out. There's no way Mel will be involved but at the end of the day he owns the stadium. The adiminstrators can't force him to do anything with it, he chooses who he sells it to. I just think it will end up being Appleby, it will be the best deal to do for all parties. And I would be happy with that, the club will be in safe hands. He has a genuine affinity for Derby County and wants the club for the right reasons. SaffyRam, Jimbo Ram and Miggins 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I'm expecting to hear something tonight, or possibly tomorrow. If it's Sunday or later before I hear back, it means my bid is still being considered, and we really are in trouble!

Kathcairns Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 1 hour ago, CBRammette said: I'm not sure Angie. It isnt worth me having a season ticket each year in the Championship as we have 250 mile round trip with all rearranged games due to kids in exam years and other family stuff so we have them about 3 years out of 5 usually so probably would count as "casual" fans this season. But if pricing good and I know most matches will be on a Saturday, I will likely get them for us if in League 1 next year. I know we wont make all games but prefer sitting in same seats and as you say will feel helping club recover a bit. I am sure we wont be the only ones - the number of rearranged for sky home games this season does I think stop quite a few having season tickets if they have to travel and have kids, work commitments etc I think the cost of living will stop some people coming, which i can understand. I will be going next season,but after that, who knows with the cost of heating and petrol rising all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to say not even sure whether they did actually say that or its just an urban myth that has been propagated, quite unsure now what is actually fact and what is fiction. I'm not putting any more updates on the updates thread. I just get laughed at so you can all wade through the rubbish on Twitter and here like I have to!
