My post was a joke about Mel's disappearing wealth rather than Clowes, whose rumoured offer is £50m including ground, I still think personally Ashley was a better bet for them, someone new to football with alot of work to do on the team / club might find it an expensive learning curve. He’s already bought the ground last week mate so his offer now is for the club I have only seen the total price of £50m quoted

what could go wrong from here, a property developer has purchased a piece of land currently inhabited by a failing football club who might not have long left as it stands, whatever could a property developer want with such a piece of land! He is a derby fan it could be worse at least they still have Rooney oohhhh oops

Him and his late father have been fans all their lives,not a chance that would/will happen.Like Coates he’s a local bloke and a fan but just not as wealthy He’s also a successful businessman and there is no room for sentimentality and emotion in the game at boardroom level, look how it cost us over the years! There is a small chance he might own his boyhood club, there is a larger chance he will make a lot of money redeveloping Pride Park

This is taking the p**s now. How can they still be trying to find cash. The season starts soon. They have no players or stadium. How long are they really going to be able to drag this on.

Have all Championship clubs released their accounts now? For the 20-21 season would think so as most have accounts year ends to tie in with the football season, after that they get 9 months to file accounts with 3 month extension because of covid available.

Nearly 100 pages, unbelievable that this is being g allowed to drag on. Wonder if they'll do a liecester and come back to win the premier league after shafting small local businesses ?

All rather suspect, preferred bidders have no cash or seeking to raise cash meanwhile Ashley has £50m in his biscuit tin at the ready to transfer!
This Administration stinks!

As I said the other day Clowes might have enough to buy the ground but he clearly doesn’t have the personal financial clout to buy the club, pay its debts and fund its running costs. £300m goes nowhere in modern football sadly.

He’s probably called them out for the shysters they appear to be and won’t agree to any sideline deals/contracts?

Enoughs enough now. Where else in the world can this go on. Bigger fish/companies/clubs/etc have gone to the wall quicker than this lot. They are mugging everyone off. Time to start again like accrington Stanley, newport, Maidstone, as it should have done months ago.

All good points plus much of his wealth is presumably tied up in property which might not be that liquid and also with a possible recession coming he might take a big hit on his wealth. Having said that by buying the ground Morris now has no say and you'd think some of these other Derby fan consortium's would invest.
