Chairman Takeover now Old Car Chat

I know Wiki isn't the most reliable of sources but it says Erick Thohir is the potential new owner of Derby County and no mention of OUFC at all: "Erick Thohir - Wikipedia" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erick_Thohir

Thohir now getting a mention by Maguire: https://internasional.kontan.co.id/...-sapta-membeli-klub-liga-inggris-derby-county

“There is a consortium, and the money actually came from Indonesia with a man named Raja [Sapta] Oktohari, who is involved with the Indonesian International Olympic Committee. His father was a senior politician in the country, and he was also friends with a man named Eric Tohir, who has historically had partial holdings at Internazionale and DC United. "said Maguire yesterday. He admitted that he got the information from someone who knew about the transaction

Take from that what you will

Alsonso has since denied Oktohari's involvement...that it's his own money and there's no consortium in the background.

That is just saying Raja knows Thohir unless we are supposed to interpret that he means something else deeper whilst not saying anything at all really.

Yep, man who is a millionaire/billionaire and connected to politics in Indonesia unbelievably knows another man who is a millionaire/billionaire and connected to politics in Indonesia. Who would of thought such similar people in the same country might know each other!

Wasn't claiming anything else. If being cynical why would Maguire mention it? Can also take at face value. Who knows...the entire Derby take over is strange

I wasn't suggesting otherwise, just making a comment on the quote. The bid is a bit strange but maybe it is just Alonso after all.

For those of us without twitter, please can you clarify who Maguire is, apart from the obvious ex player. Many Thanks.

British football financial observer Kieran Maguire, he does the Price of Football page.

How do you know whats going on without Twitter?
 
Is it the fact the club is waiting until we know what league we will be in next season before we find out anymore then the initial consortium takeover news? Seems strange it was leaked in the first place if it wasn't to be completed until at least close season.
 
I would say league 1 as on performance's this season don't deserve anything else .Lost to many.
Played poorly alot,too inconsistent which coincides with the manager not knowing his best side and sticking with it along with a weak reserves team to make team stronger for injuries.
It's a very big preseason for manager coming up shake up the team with a few going but needs a better turnover in players coming in that actually help improve team not hinder.
With teams coming down from championship along with the rest in this league it's becoming a stronger competitive league than ever?

Could be waiting for approval from the FL.
