cant see the point of the meeting if it's  NDA  how are the fans gonna be any better off  not knowing anything

if it's only the accounts and the hmrs   keeping us in this transfer embargo why hasn't that been sorted yet with only a few days left to the start of the season

The name of Derby County has been radically sullied in the press of late, some of it very unfair. Does the Club have a communications strategy to set the record straight over some of the issues eg how we cheated relegation? How we fixed our accounts? How we sold the ground to ourselves? What we value as a Club eg fairness, community spirited, ambitious. 

My question: what steps are involved and what is the timeframe on Derby County being out of a transfer embargo completely - not just loosening of the restrictions?
Do we have to write this entire season off, with regards to progressive new signings or if we need help in January could we be in a position to make those additions. 

Derby County Football Club belongs to you, but also to the people of the city and the community of fans around the world. And many are very worried for the club's future. What are your plans for the club if the worst happens and you cannot find someone to buy it off you?

Supporters are aware that the club is very much up for sale, but what is the plan for the next few years should a takeover not come to fruition?

Upon completing the sale of the club, will it once again have a stadium that it owns?

With no signings, Bielik out until Christmas and Knight supposedly out for 3 months, we really are lacking depth.

We really need to get out of the embargo as quickly as possible, but what if that means a points deduction?
Hypothetically, would anyone take a points deduction by submitting the overdue accounts/submissions (assuming they show an overspend) if it meant we could make some signings? I certainly would at this stage.

I strongly disagree. I think we were all optimistic about our situation 12 months ago. We had signed the likes of Jozwiak and Ibe. The lack of a striker was disconcerting, but we still had our top goalscorer - Waghorn - contracted to the club. Mike Te Wierik and Matt Clarke were signed up. David Marshall and Nathan Byrne too. Also, at that point, we had just finished 10th in the league thanks to some outstanding performances from Louie Sibley towards the back end of the season. It was like the second coming of Giles Barnes. 
It didn't go anything like we suspected. Jozwiak didn't make nearly the impact we thought he would, Ibe barely touched the field. MTW was awful from the get go. Marshall started very well but later got bogged down with the tripe infront of him. Rooney decided to stop moving and play manager. The best signing we made, ironically, was the one that no one wanted - Kazim-Richards. We barely stayed in the division. 
This season we have roughly 2 weeks until the season starts, no centre backs on the books. The embargo means we are really able to sign players no one else wants, at this level, unless Rooney can pull in some favours with loan moves. We currently have only one player who scored more than 5 goals in the team going into the season. By all accounts, we are about in as bad of a situation as you can possibly get, plus we still don't know if we will receive a point deduction this season and won't until the accounts and P&S are posted. I'd imagine as we are dragging it out that all roads lead to yes, but who knows. We would be able to get rid of the bloody embargo if we could get our affairs in order - and they WERE in order. 
All that being said: we have definitely quashed expectation. We were one of the favourites for a promotion run last season. Now, we're the 4th from bottom favourites for promotion - with no option to bet on our relegation because of the potential point deduction we may face. We are effectively posted as the 4th worst team in the division from the off. I think that does help and ultimately it could lead to some teams taking their eye off the ball early doors against us - perhaps resting a few players as we're seen as an easy 3 points. We've not had that luxury too often. Well, aside from Swansea, who still dicked us with their second string last season.

I CANNOT  put into words how much I want  Rooney gone 

Swansea 1 Derby 2 Fgs  waghorn 

Rooney walk away now not good enough for the mighty rams you are taking us DOWN everyone knows we should have gone for an experienced manager NOT a bloody novice when we've been in a relegation fight all season

Surely I can't be the only one who couldnt care less about Alonso's political views? Everyone has and is entitled to their opinion whether we agree with it or not.
Unless he starts to implement any of these supposed views onto Derby County such as not employing gay people or allowing them into ground then what does it matter?

I can understand peoples concerns fully in terms of the takeover and financially etc but in terms of his political views I just dont get it, until it impacts the club it really makes no difference. Mel aligned himself with the Conservative party, im sure plenty of fans who supported other parties didnt like it but at the end of the day it makes no impact on the club. Also I dont understand fans writing him off due to his Sheff Weds links, he joined them well after they got into trouble.
Us fans have no idea on what political views most of our players and staff support yet we cheer the club on every week.
