So why should Mr Ridsdale's view be any different now CK is looking like taking over Derby, not Preston? Or have I answered my own question ?!

Retro_RAM Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 I want Rooney to stay next season, however my saving grace is that if he does go we might be able convince Curtis Davies to become player/manager or manager, as he bleeds black and white.

Elwood P Dowd Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 At least Gary Cook comes with CK and he appears to be a steady pair of hands. We can only wait and see what happens, we have plenty of experience doing this at Derby.

Suppose this opens up the next set of questions: When can we renew contracts? When will season tickets be up for sale? If we go down i still believe we will sell thousands of season tickets.

belperram9 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Whole thing smells of desperation to me. Administrators said no to him originally due to better offers, now they’ve gone crawling back to Kirchner begging him to bail them out? Be interesting to know what kind of deal he has achieved. I can’t get excited about Americans involved in football over here either. Remember last time we had yanks at the helm and they tried changing all the food items at the stadium, ‘long Albuquerque Chicago Rams mega XL hotdog’. Was so cringe how everything was Americanised. I can see it happening again. The administrators have demonstrated their absolute ineptness as well. I remember that useless Hoskins going on Talksport last September with his pal Simon Jordan, both waxing lyrical about one another and Hoskins somewhat proclaiming everything will be sorted by Christmas. Why make statements like that when you haven’t even looked at the issues to begin with? The deeper they’ve delved they’ve been out of their depth. oh well, hopefully it’s over now. Fight and win….

Sparkle Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 I do wonder how much is being offered to creditors now that the sale doesn’t include the stadium - could we avoid point deductions next season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gfs1ram Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Just a word of caution - it's not a done deal yet. I believe Wigan went through 3 preferred bidders before a deal was done. MaltRam, Abu Derby and cstand 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucksRam Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Great news we finally get a PB. But why is it I still get wound up by the pathetic comms from the EFL..... "...the EFL has been focused on ensuring that there is a long-term future for the Club." Really? Love to see how. "Now that the League has been advised of the preferred bidder status by the Administrators, we await details of the formal proposals and once in receipt, these will be reviewed in line with EFL requirements..." Why do you have to say "now"? You're like a spoilt child. Keep it factual. "Following notification by the admins of the PB.....". And how long will your review take? Long enough to see us down with further points deductions and player losses? "This process will allow us to understand what hurdles may still need to be overcome before matters can move forward......" Sorry? After nearly 2 years you still don't understand the hurdles? Maybe read this thread - you'll possibly learn a thing or two. Indyram, jimtastic56, Carnero and 18 others 4 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
