EFL Official Statement : Derby County Update

[avondalemiller]

I think most potential investors now are waiting for the words”a going concern”…

,,,,more like basket case...............lol

£4m for Jozwiak......£8m for that Bielik(?)........who gives the green light to pay those prices for player what are "average at best"......crazy.

Just kick em out to anywhere what will have them.......brilliant way to run a club and shooting for the stars............

,,,if this money gets them to the end of the season, what happens then when there's no income in the close season??? Is this what the "interested parties" are waiting for, buying a dying club?

The Binnie family pulled out of buying the club, reported offered £30m but wanted Pride Park stadium
in the deal, but Mel Morris is not selling the stadium, he is after getting rent from any buyer of the club.
The administrators [ set on & paid by Mel Morris ] are selling the club, & the debts with it.
Would be perhaps better for the club to go into liquidation, but would the stadium count as assets, with
the club & the ground being owned by Mel Morris, unless he's played crafty & separated both into
two separate companies.
The HMRC bill is a big turn off for any buyer of the club.

With the buying of Bielik, he has been bought from Arsenal, with Derby County paying the fee in instalments, but
Arsenal helped Derby County by freezing the payments, with the pandemic & the clubs financial troubles.
So any prospective buyer of the club, will have the outstanding transfer fee to pay, in instalments.

The more that does the more it's hopefully going to sink them without a trace. Make em start in League 2 next season. At least the Scottish FA had balls throwing the book at Rangers and made an example of them!

It unbalanced the league though, throwing a big fish into a small pond.

On a similar point it’s gone a bit quiet on other teams with doubtful finances, like SWFC and Reading

After a tough Wednesday night and then just Thursday off and travelling down to Wycombe Friday to play today ,I think the lads have done a good job and got something out of this horrible fixture.Taking a point and our nearest competitors both taking no more than a point means we have lost no ground and now have two home games to come.We have three players who have come back and they will gradually get better each match and we have a stronger bench for these two very important games coming up.

It's all here if anyone is is at all interested. Sounds like it's something to do with financial 'jiggery pokery' , something he should be used to having been at Derby

Have to admit I couldn't read all of that. Why do the rules of so many US sports have to be so complicated?
