Thanks mate but not my spot, another poster. But I thought that Q should get a bit of positive. If not for the EFL we'd have had a preferred bidder last Friday. Of course it's been suggested that it might have cost us 15 points next season, but... If we go that way again maybe the EFL can be persuaded that their flexible rules will apply (as it'd be a first time for it).

Dai Capp Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 I have many concerns about DCFC right now but one is this recurring theme of Q not communicating. We've had it from Kirchner, EFL, Boro, Wycombe, Radio Derby and other press. I would have thought a fundamental part of the process would be open comms - it's all well and good having a plan for cross class cram down but just in case that didn't float, you'd surely be engaging with the claimants to have a backstop, regardless of whether you think they have a valid claim. I can't help but think between EFL and Q our future isn't in great hands and the Boro and Wycombe claims are being used by both as an excuse to cover their joint ineptitude. jimtastic56, Maharan, SBW and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 I don’t mind not hearing from the administrators if they are actually doing something positive but I don’t know that they are. people can have different views but I found it interesting that both Middlesbrough and the ambulance chaser at Wycombe were basically complaining that the administrators hadn’t been coming to them offering them money ! The real problem may well be that the EFL are bought and sold and frightened to death and controlled by Gibson basically Dai Capp, The Scarlet Pimpernel and RoyMac5 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think unless the administrators know they can secure yet another loan for the club or they're 100% sure they can settle these claims soon then they shouldn't be saying players aren't for sale.

That doesn’t actually make any difference if we can’t get passed the EFL allowing a preferred bidder to make their bid - we fold in February March or May - if it was to happen I would prefer six weeks before the end of the season for maximum disruption to league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StaffsRam Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Saw a comment earlier, can’t remember where (sorry), that one of the local MPs had met with the Administrators earlier today and wasn’t overly impressed by them. Doesn’t sound good if true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
