Bob Gnarly Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Realistically we cannot moan. Anyone who takes on this basket case of a club at the moment needs our backing. It has put pressure on the other bidders with all this Kirchner stuff coming out. Naming him as the PB doesn't mean that he will be the one to take us over, it could prove to be a swift move if it gets the other interested parties to actually make a bid that isn't derisory. desirelines, JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta, Derby4Me and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its OK saying he’s getting the stadium, but how much does that need spending on it to get it to the same state as PPS? How much would their training ground need spending on it to get it up to Cat 1 What’s the difference in potential fan bases when they’ve got the two Manchester and Liverpool clubs just down the road? I would copy and paste this post all day long absolutely spot on. A lot of owners will offer a sum until they get in there and have a look at accounts etc and you see something you don’t like your entitled to lower your offer. If you offered 150 grand for a house got a detailed check and they said there’s 10 thousand pound worth of damp damage and the electrics all need doing for another 5k you aren’t just going to say ohh well I’ll just pay it.

I wouldn't worry, it's a natural defence mechanism, or a conceited strategy. Those who are 'anti' out of a defence mechanism, are those, like myself, who understandably thought a rich, local, loyal, fan, in charge of the club could NEVER hurt the club, so now naturally fear that anyone can hurt the club if Mel did. Those who are 'anti' out of conceited strategy just want to be able to say "see, I was right about him" if it went wrong down the line. This is just human nature.

Jortat Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Let’s get CK announced as the PB and let us move onto the next phase of him completing the takeover. Then whatever happens with the -15 points I’m ok with as long as we survive as a club. Then we can all get in with supporting our club and talking about football matters on how we are to rise again and hopefully move back up the leagues. I can’t wait to have some form of “normal “ with our club again. COYR? Animal is a Ram, strawhillram, Indyram and 4 others 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It almost makes me think what’s the point Curtains, Pride Park can hold around 30k fans? You've read a few posts on an Internet forum by a few fans. Do you not think you maybe overreacting just a tad? I would say that whilst some may have and voice their serious doubts over any of the potential owners that have been linked, I'm sure 100% of fans will be happy to still have a club going into next season, even if their preferred choice doesn't purchase the club.

Ghost of Clough Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 3 hours ago, Strider said: It was noted multiple times on this thread, how none of the other bids appeared to match Kirchner's original bid (except he wanted to spread some/most of the cost over 3 years). If ends up paying exactly what he offered in Dec, then Q will have some explaining to do. It was noted that CK's offer included normal day to day costs which weren't included in the quoted bids for others. I also seem to recall CK walking away before any bid deadline had been reached, rather than the bid being rejected r_wilcockson, Jortat, RoyMac5 and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
