Steve Gibson open letter to Derby Administrators

We therefore invite you to respond to the following questions by way of an open letter.
  1. MSD (a lender) is owed a significant amount of money by Derby County which is personally guaranteed by Mel Morris. If Derby County went into liquidation, Mr Morris would have to settle the debt and therefore he has an interest in resolving the matter. Please confirm the current status of the discussions with the lender and Mr Morris about the debt and the transfer of Pride Park, which is owned by Mr Morris, to any purchaser of Derby County.
  2. You met with Steve Gibson in November 2021. It was agreed at the meeting there would be a continued dialogue between you and Mr Gibson. Why did you not then engage or communicate with him at all until Friday 14 January 2022?
  3. As noted above, you give the impression that the sole issue that is left to resolve is our and Wycombe’s claim. Please confirm that you have reached a settlement with HMRC and the basis of that settlement.
  4. Contrary to what you leak to the media, we have made an offer to compromise our claim and met with your nominated representative last weekend. Please confirm that this is correct.
  5. Please confirm how many millions of Derby County’s money you have spent on your fees to date and what additional debt you have incurred.

Go on Gibbo - 100% Behind you

Haha, he's well mad
 
He is clearly fed up with being scapegoated for pointing out someone elses poor ethics and morals (Mel Morris).

Don't say I blame him, he has good standing in the game, a long term, chairman, clearly not in it to make money, a football fan, and a local, why should his reputation be dragged through the mud by some twobit administrators who previously managed to screw up Portsmouths administration. It won't be long before they get some legal papers served on them if they keep it up, because I would suspect this open letter will be accompanied with another cease and desist one.
 
He forgot to say
I am deeply sorry l apologise for everything that alledgedly went on and no one told me it was against the rules.
 
Sorry, but I think Gibson's letter is pretty awful, and I say that as someone who doesn't give two hoots about Derby going to the wall. I understand why he's done it, but it's whiny and most of what he asks for are things he has no right to know.

1 is none of his business.
2 refers to himself in the third person!
3 is none of his business
4 will come back to bite him, because if he's trying to make everything else public then he really needs to say publicly what his compromise offer is
5 is none of his business
