That's just basically repeating Ed Dawes

Well this is pretty devastating. I don't think the BBC would come out with something like this if they didn't believe it. 

Nixon on the other hand can be very vague and take a scatter gun approach which he claims was right once one hits.

We won't know until we hear something from the EFL, Administrators or CK himself. 

Unfortunately I am off sick today so will probably just we refreshing twitter ?.

If this turns out to be false, Dawes has just risked Radio Derby’s access to the club for years to come. There’s no way he comes out with a statement like this unless he’s sure the information is accurate.

Journalistic rigour is not what it once was. Being first with a story is nowadays more important than being accurate.

Coin toss.

Radio Derby don't usually report anything unless it's pretty certain.

Nixon, thus far, has clearly had decent sources.

Or is Nixon being cryptic? God knows, but it`s a bl00dy mess.

With my "Glass Half Empty" nature (my positive twist is that I always look how I can fill the glass), I keep wondering what happens if CK fails.

Is MA or A.N.Other waiting in the wings as The Daily Mail suggest?

Biggest concern is if that`s the case, how long would it take for them to complete a deal?

Considering exiting administration is necessary to overturn Transfer Embargo, fill a squad and guarantee to EFL completion of the season?

If it was MA, who the EFL know, would they bend the rules a bit?

This is a nightmare.

Same, some virus albeit testing neg for COVID.  Headaches and fever - normally only DCFC make me feel this bad! 

Get well soon brother.

I’m sure that his source probably has said the deal will collapse but does anyone at the club truly know what is going on? 
 

The issue here is that no one really knows what is going on as I’m sure the club has had about as much contact as us.

 

Unless Ed’s sources are Quantuma or CK himself, I’ll reserve judgment until an official statement.

 

The timing of this just seems off? Why wait till the day we are expecting something to happen?

I bet quantuma are buzzing because they will get paid more money the longer this saga drags on ?

[Strider]

The BBC don't generally report on something unless they've heard it from 2 different independent sources. I'd believe them over Nixon.

[Ram1988]

So what is plan B now?

Appleby? Ashley? something needs to happen asap

 

[cosmic]

As others are saying. The BBC won’t publish unless they’re certain. There’s strict regulations. They’re not a red top who can report garbage and get away with it.

The suggestion is that the money just hasn't turned up - that's what both Ed Dawes and the Daily Mail seem to be saying.  If it was as simple as the money being stuck in the financial-checks process, you'd think the admins would be aware of it - Kirchner would be in touch keeping them updated as his lawyers are answering questions etc.  The admins seemingly being unaware as to the reason behind the delays suggests it's either not the checks causing the delays, or Kirchner is being evasive because he thinks he might have problems getting through those checks.

Don't forget it was Ed Dawes who told us unequivocally that Mel Morris had gone to ground only to retract that as completely untrue a few hours later.

Mods - I have the full text of Nixon's patreon post. Am I allowed to post it on here?

[glyn1957]

Maybe CK had silent investors who have since withdrawn the financial backing and  now he  just cant raise the cash to finalise the proposed purchase of DCFC.

If the above scenario is correct its a choice of the cockney loving carpetbagger  or !!.

The End.

I think you are right. I said months ago that they are as incompetent as Mel after they had several times told that this and that is happening but same spin goes on. But of course soon they will tell us that something good is on the verge of happening and what you know the next season is on the way with us on -15 points.

[Sparkle]

Oh Dear, it’s going to be moving day today I believe and by the end of it tonight either CK is the new owner of Derby County or we are again in fast flowing brown stuff

Man. Broken my record for blocking trolling Forest fans on Twitter and it's only half past 8 in the morning. 

If this does fall through there are some serious questions to ask of Q and the EFL. It means their proof of funds checks ain't worth waste matter remaining after food has been digested, discharged from the bowels.

Nice way of putting it, but the checks are only as good as the cheques at the end of the day. 

Q, the EFL and anyone else (Stretford/Cook will surely have seen all this too) can only go on what the bank accounts say, if the money's there, the money's there. What else can they do?
