Millers Wait For Bids

Rotherham's Administrator is yet to receive any firm bids for the club, with a 5pm deadline looming.

Jeremy Bleazard had already extended the deadline for bids until 5pm today, but none of the three remaining parties from the original eight have lodged any bids. Chief Operating Officer Paul Douglas told BBC Radio:

"Our administrator Jeremey Bleazard is in London today at the Leeds court case. It may be that when he comes out for lunch he may contact me to say that he's been contacted. But certainly at the club we have not received a bid as yet.

"I must admit I'm not 100% sure to what critera the administrator will consider. I understand that it will be early next week when he will be in a postion to make some sort of announcement."

Bleazard has previously said that if there were no bids by 5pm then the club would be liquidated but, with a home match tomorrow generating fund to continue trading into next week an extension is likely if he felt a bid was close.

Should Rotherham fold before the end of the season, their record of games would be removed. It would make little difference to the Bulls in the League table as they would lose four points, the same as Stockport and MK Dons, while Peterboro would lose three and Rochdale six.
