    BW takeover confirmed to be off, but they are talking to other parties

    I wonder if one of them wished them g'day
    Bet there is more concern up there at the moment than there is in these parts over whether a takeover will happen...

    I don't know - the below could have been taken directly off this thread to be honest.

    ...who knows what is in that man's brain.
    Au contraire - I think we know exactly what's going on in his brain...

    Guy's a sociopath.

    Doesn't give a rats arse about us, the club, history etc. He'll take infamy over saviour any day.
    This is all about his ego and his wallet. Forget everything else.

    My hunch is liquidation will be started and we'll have 7 days to save the club. Or not. Though I'll go with a deal being then done, hopefully one that leaves KA shafted, but I bet he wont be - there'll be some sickening sweetener in there for the f~*ker, and we'll all be expected to be grateful. Bar steward will be able to retire off of us.

    I'm starting to hate my football atm - this sucks more than anything previous, ever. Gonna be a long road back...

    Brexit or Rolexit? Which will be resolved first? Which will be most damaging to the UK economy and which will prove the most humiliating embarrassment to all associated with it? Who is the most inept negotiator in modern times and who puts their career and wellbeing ahead of the interests of the many?

    Derby County owner Mel Morris is considering selling the club for token price of £1 in a deal which would see him aiming to have his debts repaid through the sale process.

    Derby for sale also. £1 sounds nice but if he wants his debts repaid, that's the important figure consider how much money Championship clubs are losing

    The mix up with the Australian consortium was because they  thought the 30 million they offered was for Cafc, lock stock and barrel, where Duchatelet assumed it was the deposit before they coughed up the other 35 million.

    A simple mistake to make.

    Which is interesting, as he is the classic local lad made good type owner. I suspect he's realising how hard getting promoted is turning out to be and is worried about losing everything. Good news for them is that he's a fan and wants what's best the the club, unlike our owner.

    Sadly I have to agree with that assessment.
