Stive Pesley Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 The club still has the corporate interview video up on FB from when CK was the preferred bidder https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=543275024035439 Funnily enough, he's talking about the complexity around the way MM had structured the club and the stadium making it harder for the deal to be sorted It's entirely possible that, had MM not created such a rats nest of companies and structures - then CK might have been able to get the deal through quickly before anyone realised that he was a money-laundering fraud. So thanks for that Uncle Mel 😂 Mucker1884, Comrade 86 and Carl Sagan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So thanks for that Uncle Mel 😂 Nah. The deal would NEVER have been completed as the funds would still be held up by AML checks to this day (allegedly). Hell would have frozen over or we'd all be using crypto (sorry @NottsRam77. I couldn't resist) before the money arrived 😀 Stive Pesley and NottsRam77 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G STAR RAM Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 https://www.derbycounty.news/news/the-amount-of-money-that-mel-morris-lost-as-derby-county-owner-has-now-been-revealed/ This is how the charlatan gets attention. Clickbait headlines saying that the 'football finance expert' has revealed how much MM lost as Derby County owner, followed by an article where he reveals nothing and just repeats some rumours that he heard. His credibility gets less and less with each thing he says about our club. jono, Norman, Steve How Hard? and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the worst that could have happened is the process could have been delayed even longer. He was never in a position to actually complete on the transaction. Makes you wonder why he ever did it. Edited January 27 by Tamworthram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet we still charge a quarter of what Sheffield Wednesday do for that aging dump of a ground! 1997 I was working at the RR foundry, 12 of us foundry men were given matchday tickets in one of their suits, We were given the ground tour, In the changing rooms all the shirts were hanging up, Most of the lads had their pics taken with Benito Carbone's shirt on the Hook, I had mine taken with my middle finger and a smile, I never got the picture 😮 ...it was a sh!t tip then.

Carnero Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 (edited) I remember watching an online stream including Amanda Solloway, some Derby city councillors & Kirchner. At one point they discussed "imposter syndrome" and Kirchner admitted to sometimes having feelings of imposter syndrome. We now know why!!!

The EFL and Quantuma, presumably. It’s no coincidence that the pair in Quantuma were investigated for fraud when handling Portsmouth’s admin.

But when we were told Mel was running the club in tandem with the Sheikh , I can’t remember many fans being up in arms . Also there weren’t many tears when £30 mills worth of tax ( taken from staff wages) for schools and hospitals , went missing. I understand what you are saying , but we have short memories .
