Derby County
‘Bad feeling’, ‘Trouble’ – Plenty of Derby County fans react to important takeover update

Derby County are in ‘advanced negotiations’ with Erik Alonso over a potential takeover of the club according to a recent report from The Athletic.
The Spaniard is attempting to take control of the club through his company No Limits Sports LTD. Alonso has previously worked at Sheffield Wednesday as an advisor, and was part of a plan to take control of the Owls, although that was rejected by Dejphon Chansiri.
It is claimed by The Athletic that substantial funds are in place for the takeover to be completed swiftly, which means they can turn their attention to their battle to surviving in the Championship.
Derby had previously been in talks with Bin Zayed International, although that potential takeover stalled after talks didn’t progressed as originally planned.
Do these celebrities support Derby County or not?
The Rams are currently sat 19th in the Championship table, and just six points clear of the relegation zone, as they head into their match against Barnsley on Tuesday evening.
Plenty of the Pride Park faithful took to social media to react to this important update on the club’s takeover situation.
Take a look at the best of the reaction from Twitter below….
I'm sure Mel Morris said he'd only sell to the right people. Wanted the club to be in safe hands…. Soon abandoned that…. #dcfc #dcfcfans

Don’t like the smell of this at all, no evidence this guy has any money so could be fronting up money for someone else.
