We could both go the way of Wigan, Bolton and Portsmouth. I get that feeling too mate. Get someone to shut your club down for you - whilst repaying debts to MM. MM won’t then be the villain. Same could happen if SWFC get a new owner. We’re both in too deep I feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he just wants to cut and run, and will sell to whoever is willing to pay. Btw, I saw Collymore tweeted a few weeks ago he’d just learnt about the story of what’s going on inside DCFC and it could go seriously bad, as in go the way of Bury of others... He deleted it quickly afterwards, what’s the word on the wire about what that was all about? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerging details seem to support my guess: Spanish businessman Erik Alonso has agreed a deal to buy the club but has so far been unable to produce funds when asked by the EFL. The deal includes an initial payment of £2.5m to Morris, followed by £2.5m in 12 months —and taking on debts of more than £40m. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shetland Owl Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Let hope he takes them over and then they are relegated due to a 12 point deduction 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taximark Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Derby are in big trouble, I mean I don't even think it matters that they got that point to stay up. Another club who has put everything into getting into the PL and it's backfired. I remember when they dropped into the third division in 83/84 the same year we got promoted, they were back in the top flight 3 years later! Not this time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteOwl91 Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 I knew the guy was leaving clues left right and centre with his behaviour, lack of proof of funds etc, but this really is humiliating and as bigger red flag as any. He's taken a TikTok video of a house, including the same music and posting as if he's there this morning. Derby are screwed if this guy gets his claws on them, will the EFL let it go through, surely not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcx666 Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Be fair the EFL let Ken Anderson in at Bolton, and he had been banned from being a director of a company for years, and they also let those owners of Wigan in, who turned out to be betting on them being relegated from the championship and asset stripping the club, so they will welcome Erik with open arms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteOwl91 Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Would love to know what his angle was at getting involved at SWFC, or more to the point how he thought that could result in him getting something out of it. I.e. how would he ever take over from Chansiri when chansiri just isnt for negotiating with So so odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you end up with people like Alonso trying (and others succeeding) to buy a club who literally have nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
