I bet @David can think of one!!! ?

As us Derby fans whip together to raise funds for the St John's Ambulance service, Steve Gibson is menacingly trying to take our club from us for his own pleasure and financial gain.
Shameful. Unclassy. Spiteful.

About time the EFL flexed their muscles and instructed both clubs to stop as they are bringing the game into disrepute and taking it to places that could start it breaking up.

If you want to do something positive instead, get yourself on the St John's Ambulance thread and donate.

And he could pay all off in one go.

? I’ll try this on a Sunday morning, running the line for my lads U18 side.  See if I’ve got time to explain this  rule before I hit the ground ?

They've been deducted 6 points if that helps. 

It’d be terrible if someone painted it black and white 

Best debut I've seen since Will Hughes. Was excellent against Notts County in pre-season. Superb player.

An academy is all good when you’re a Premier League side and you can afford it, all the while sending the best talent out to the Championship for experience.
You’re also protected against fellow PL sides stealing your best players.
But in the Championship and below I just don’t see how it’s financially worth it.
Put it this way, if we were in the PL and had Knight, Bird, Sibley and Buchanan come through and we loaned them out to stable Championship clubs, they’d arguably progress more while having a far higher value.
Unless you get lucky with a Jude Bellingham (signed to a pro contract) every few years, an academy is just a financial burden. You can get better value for money just using the academy expense to sign players to develop for the first team.

Are you Steve Gibson in disguise 

I’d be tempted to scrap it and create a B team or development team. Can still flood it with youngsters of course but also use it for recruitment of players to develop for the first team.
Over the years we certainly haven’t made the most of it. Or we’ve had good players at U18 level but their progress for whatever reason has stopped there.

But I thought the academy staff were crap because of that mum who comes on here every now and then to share unsubstantiated gossip.

Well we lost about £136m between 14/15 and 20/21 whereas Reading lost £57.8m between 17/18 and 20/21.
We failed three periods by a total of £21.5m. They failed 1 period by £18.8m.
I think I said yesterday that we should have had 21 points deducted. They should have had 12 points. Both have basically had that punishment halved.
