Historically speaking - "Options Open" in Derby City Council speak includes it "burning to the ground in a mysterious fire", so who's got that one in the Ground Sale Sweepstake?

If it’s down to the council it will be next year sometime before anything is finalised. It could be miles of but a legally binding agreement to purchase could seal the deal, these can be put in place quickly, the clauses might be unacceptable to Mel though such as conditional offer subject to survey, where remedial works are to be subtracted from the total. Its not the cost of the ground persay that's holding this up its the combined cost of paying off DCFC debts that Mel ran up as well as the stadium totalling about £55-60M, then factor in building a new team. although I suspect there will be lots of free transfers available, that would jump at the chance of working with Rooney.....

LazloW Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Think the Council are getting a bit of unfair criticism here. They’re under no obligation to try and buy the stadium and, as many have said, they’re bound to have a lot more hoops to jump through than a ‘normal’ business, both in terms of securing funding (which they may have already done according to ITKers) and actually spending the money. They certainly won’t be as quick as a private buyer, not least because of all the legal and scrutiny processes they’ll need to go through (which in most cases people would be happy with as nobody likes Councils spending ‘their’ money without scrutiny). The business case might be holding them up too, because you’d have thought of it were that good then you wouldn’t need the Council to get involved (maybe it’s just too much of a stinker of a deal for anybody to do it, which makes it even less likely the Council would approve a bid… got to get good value for public money by law (I think)). I’d also have thought that if there are avenues being explored for a private purchase, the Council won’t want to commit to anything anyway. Got to be preferable for it not to involve public money?
