James Derry tells the Evening Post website http://www.thisismansfieldtown.co.uk that he vows to give Mansfield boss Bill Dearden the cash to freshen up his struggling squad - if his consortium's takeover bid is successful. Derry says he is "very close" to finalising an agreement to buy the club and rent the ground from owner Keith Haslam. Derry says the two parties will meet later this week. Derry said: "The current squad needs to raise its game from how they are performing but one or two new loan signings would be a big help. We couldn't afford to wait until January for permanent deals because by that point it might be too late to turn things around. Derry said: "A deal needs to be done quickly because there a real problems at the club and I don't see anyone else rushing in to bid. It could be the start of a new era for the club and we would urge everyone to come out and support us."
