I too thought Morgan would've been a decent option/owner. Has a decent business touch in more than just football and Property development. I think he also owns several golf resorts. I don't doubt his integrity, but I am under the impression that Alf is now in his 70's. That's the kind of age that when the crotch of your trousers is wet you are looking out through the window to see if it is raining.

How was MM allowed to do what he did? Obviously the fans are not to blame, nor the players, but it begs the question what were the governance structures in place within the club? What was the financial protocol? That is where the club is to blame I am afraid to say and changes undoubtedly will need to be made internally to prevent such reckless behaviour happening again......that's the truth.....

Ghost of Clough Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 53 minutes ago, derby8 said: Thanks for that. The 35% relates to a relatively small proportion of the debt, seeing the other figures are separate. £55m for the lot seems high for a L1 club but the fan base, quite modern stadium capable of expansion, and overall potential could make it a good investment to try and grow the capital. We'll see... It's also worth noting a significant amount of the Transfer Fees is reliant upon us getting promotion to the PL within the period Bielik is contracted to us (2 years left on his contract). We either get to the point where we don't have to pay it, or we've just had a very enjoyable 2 seasons and have a big wedge of cash to cover those costs.

They (I wonder how many he’s spoken to) may want it resolved before the fixture list is finalised, which seems reasonable, but I doubt they’re “angry”.

He was going to demand they accept Mike Ashley as preferred bidder until he was reminded that would be improper? The person on the front desk said "sorry,no one is available. Diary is full all week.

Also wasn’t there something about Jozwiak fee not being a football creditor as that only applies to UK transfers? We did pay a big wedge for The Bielik fee in January but missed the Jozwiak payment shortly after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine we'll have to pay the full amount as we'd end up with FIFA transfer bans and whatnot if we didn't (we would have heard about it).

You can see their point, they've all been hard done by and we've been shown such favouritism. How exactly does it effect anyone else at the moment?
