Pretty much the same thing here.

Radio Derby just interviewed John Dorkin and Pauline Latham about team Derby meeting this afternoon.
No in person meeting today because of illnesses. It was a telephone meeting.
Q said that bids have been received, it's moving forwards and it's still an ongoing process. They are looking through bids and clarifying
No timescale for announcement of PB
Q told that communication has not been up to scratch.
Both MP's said that Q have over - promised and under - delivered  and whilst we don't expect them to tell us confidential details, we need some communication as it leads to lack of confidence for the fans and frustration for all associated with the club. The team, Wayne and the fans need to know.
I think both MP's are going to continue to push Q for better communication.
 
 
 
 
 
 

Likely to be some truth around the Ukraine ‘situation’ and how it affects the purchase of the club. Many high worth individuals will have taken a financial hit, with what’s going on. Does that affect their calculations, what they are prepared to pay or even do they want to buy a football club at this time of high uncertainty? Quite possibly.
Not in the know and hopefully there’ll  be no issue.

Think its something to do with a earthquake in the ocean and big waves 

For those wondering who my favourite Coronation Street character of all time is, it's young butcher's assistant Ashley. 
Hope that's cleared things up. 
 

So that explains the name! 
I've always felt sorry for Philip Pines.

It’s people like you that have put the club in the dangerous financial position - millions of pounds in debt- that it finds itself in now.

No; Barry The Ram hasn’t announced anything yet.

I think the sheikh got lost a few months ago in Intu. 

What about Reluctant Thicko?

Well guys we need pp to be sea of black and white flags scarfs balloons banners the works let's really really really how passionate we are let's send a message to efl and rest who want us gone that we are derby county and we shall fight till the end and we shall stay up a win we are only 2 points behind and next Saturday a win there we could be out of bottom 3. Let's all work togather and roar our lads to safety.

From Clough's autobiography:
Derby County should have been one of the biggest and most successful football clubs, not only in Britain but in Europe. They should have achieved the levels of triumph that Liverpool enjoyed for more than a quarter of a century. Oh yes, Derby should have been as big as Liverpool – possibly even bigger. And there is only one man to blame for the fact that they didn't reach such status: Brian Clough. To be strictly accurate, there are two culprits: me and Peter Taylor. When we walked out of the Baseball Ground in October 1973 it was the worst move of our lives. We were stupid, we were headstrong, we were stubborn and full of our own importance, but we were terribly, terribly wrong.
The day we resigned together was the day we turned our backs on the chance, if not the absolute guarantee, of turning a small-town club into a major power in European football. I honestly still believe that had Taylor and I not quit, we would have led Derby to the kind of unprecedented glory that set apart Liverpool from the rest from the 1960s onwards.

I could hardly disagree more,have another 3 point penalty for wasting my time.

My reply.
I understand I'm pissing in the wind with this, just want us to be treated fairly which I feel we are not.
With regards to the review of our points deduction, I looked at the judgment and it was a loss of £1.96m above the upper threshold for 20/21 where a £5m covid exemption was allowed. Last nights statement was £2.5m with immediate effect to the 21/22 season.
Wouldn't change the deduction at all would it @Ghost of Clough?

Just sent this to Rick Parry. I'm still yet to receive a reply to my previous email, just needed to vent my frustration. This isn't acceptable, you can't run football like this.
 

So let me get this right, 2 clubs were punished for breaching P&S rules, one of which was due to be asked to resubmit previously signed off accounts. 
Now Bristol City, Boro and a number of other clubs look set to breach, they increase the COVID losses an extra £2.5m to help those that were heading for points deductions.
Showing exactly why an independent regulator is needed for the game. 
Even if an extra £2.5m allowance wouldn't have prevented us from breaching, how is it fair to go moving the goalposts midway through the season? 
Duck off with your no vendettas, I hope whoever buys this club takes the EFL to court and absolutely destroys them, QC would have a field day against this lot. 

Once a preferred bidder is named, a non refundable £5m deposit would be made, with that and the accounts being published you would hope a little leniency from the EFL we would be in a position to offer new contracts.
Maybe not signings, but just the ability to offer contracts would be huge for us and help Rooney to decide if he's going to continue the job.
Under the embargo status on the EFL website: 
Regulation 16.2 - Failure to provide audited annual accounts
Regulation 16.3 - Annual Accounts not filed with Companies House
Regulation 17 - Default in payments to HMRC
Profit and Sustainability Rules - non-submission of audited accounts
Club in administration

Getting Festy to sign a new contract is no. 1 priority.

As soon as we get new owners in I will be writing to them with my Rams Heritage Trust hat on and asking that something is sorted for the final game of the season, hopefully it can be a staying up party and and a massive show of appreciation for what those lads did for our club and put our Derby County on the world footballing map !

They were deducted 25 points after going into administration, leaving them 20 points adrift at the bottom of the table. 
They finished 6th, 24 points ahead of 9th and 10th.
Their joint second top goalscorer with 8 goals?
This man.

They’re just devising the next obstacle for us now that Gibson has gone rogue.

It’s Middlesbrough. Most of them won’t have a clue who their real dads are so they’ve no hope of pinning down a grandad….

Only your half and half Middleby scarf.

As an aside to all this, an indication as to how a club can have a bearing on a persons mental health is this. My dad died suddenly on 31 Jan 22 and the first time I started to feel any cheer since his death was on Tuesday night watching Derby score 3 goals. It broke the malaise.
