This saga is so infuriating, absolute shambles. A football debt is like any other debt surely? Non payment of an amount owed for services provided, whether that be £3.50 for a pint, £200k for a house or £8m outstanding for Beilik. You enter into a contract whether written or verbal for goods or services provided I.e. a legitimate debt if not paid. The amount owed is clearly defined. If one party is claiming they might have made X if Y had / had not happened then it’s a claim for “projected loss of damages” no? So, how the hell does a claim for damages or compensation become defined as a debt?
 
Surely it has to be agreed by both parties that services or goods have been provided without payment? And the value had to have been agreed upon. A debt is transactional. No transaction has taken place. A claim. For loss of earnings has been made essentially. But not a cut and dry loss of earnings in the sense of “I’m going to make £2k this week but I didn’t because I was in a car accident  that was someone else's fault and if they hadn’t hit me I was guaranteed to make £2k”But, in the sense of, “if I wasn’t in a car accident, I might have made £2k, or I might have made £4m or I might have not made anything.” 
 
This whole thing is an absolute farce. The governing body that sets the rules by which we operate has set the penalty as minus 9 points plus 12 for entering administration. So by the logic of allowing the claims by Middlesborough and Wycombe they’re essentially saying, anyone affected by our actions can make a claim for compensation against us regardless of that fact that they as the governing body, have already decided on the offence and set the punishment.
Meanwhile, instead of standing up and leading and helping to find a pragmatic solution or trying to mediate, they pass the buck back to all the parties in disagreement and say “you sort it out”
Absolute flipping nonsense 

I am not too despondent about recent losses. Huddersfield and Forest are not particularly good but both are pushing for the play-offs and both are playing with confidence and riding momentum, which can make a world of difference in this division.
Away from home, there is a sense that we will always require someone to step up and seize their moment and win us the game. Unfortunately we didn’t do that in recent games, but having retained the likes of Lawrence and Plange, it could happen in the future.
The margins seem very fine to me: I see no reason to believe we can’t stay up. Of course we can. But the key to it all is making the winnable games count.
Hull, Peterborough, Barnsley, Millwall, Coventry, Cardiff, Preston and Bristol City all have to come to PP. What greater incentive could we have?
We are capable of winning every single one of those games and giving ourselves a genuine shot. The question is whether we can keep our heads and get the results we need.
The Forest and Birmingham games suggest nerves have begun to creep in and expectation is weighing heavily on the players.

The world has gone upside down.
@Jourdan is now the most positive poster on this thread.
Is this a dream?

Huddersfield 0-1 Derby

She insisted you went shopping didn’t she. Hopefully you bought a pair of trousers.

We were staying at the Jury’s Inn and coming down Irongate just after 11, there was already an atmosphere brewing and crowds gathering.
My girlfriend remarked how great it was to see the sense of community and different generations and different people from different backgrounds all coming together for one common cause.
We missed the march. But the passion of our fans left quite a strong impression on my girlfriend!
She’s already asking me when can we drive 5 hours and go again. ?

From the top of the flyover there looked to be more than at Trumps inauguration which apparently was a record attendance so I am going for a conservative estimate of 150,000?

I am surprised we haven’t modified the Vardy chant for this situation.
Lawrence’s on fire
Rick Parry is terrified.

I'm going to the stadium tomorrow morning to start queuing for me half time pint.....

Check your wheely bin mate! ? ? (Not got a tracking number?)

Thank you for the advice! Fingers crossed!

They were very quick to take your money ?

Hoping to join the march!
But it’s entirely dependent on my girlfriend’s desire to brunch and see the sights.
I might be too busy quaffing Lilt in McTurks.
