On Twitter somewhere- link seems not to work, Elias Burke. I thought EFL shares for the new season were issued today (31st) and they had given Kirchener this (last / latest) deadline for that reason.

Something to do with 30th May being Memorial Day in US….surely a businessman understands working days in relevant countries? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 (edited) Should add, Derby at least if a tweet by Kirchner is anything to go by appear to be capped at a max of £8k per week. Dunno if that's an average, for a single player or what. Reasonable? I said £6k but I'm not hugely uncomfortable with £8k if true.

Derby_Ram Posted June 1, 2022 Report Share Posted June 1, 2022 We're getting there. Slowly bit surely. Interestingly I'm expecting a potential late twist with Pride Park ownership and it wouldn't surprise me to see CK as the owner of this too instead of the local businessman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since then.....nothing. EFL have had their pants pulled down with so called deadlines happening over the past 12 months I can see this dragging into the new season imo.

If it does, I think it’s an immediate 15 point deduction for starting a season in administration. I believe it’s a blanket penalty as well so no wriggle room.

More than enough comments and rumors circulating up here to indicate that "forgot the Bank Holidays" was a convenient excuse for "You mean it really will cost that much ....". Latest is that CK has put no cash into the club. The wages were met by someone 'close to the club'. Edited June 8, 2022 by Hxj 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chinapig Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 So we have Ed Dawes of Radio Derby and the Mail saying the deal will collapse and Nixon saying it's held up by money laundering checks. The bank holiday/inefficiency of US banks excuses seem to have been dropped. The thing with Nixon is that Derby fans slagged him off when he was saying things they didn't like then fell in love with him when he appeared to become Kirchner's mouthpiece. I understand Derby fans desperate to save their club choosing to believe any positive stories but it's always sensible to be sceptical until the evidence suggests you shouldn't be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Ashley will be a safe pair of hands for Derby, has money, knows football, coped with being an unpopular owner and regardless of what Newcastle fans think, kept them solvent before moving the club on. Amazed that things have got this far however, these deals always seem to collapse when it comes to the 'show us the money' question, which suggests this is a question that should be asked a lot earlier in the takeover process.
