    Why bother having an administration thread if we're just going to post rubbish in it? Change the name to "pub thread" or "old people reminisce about the olden days" if you want and be done with it. If there is nothing new to post about administration or nothing relevant to be posted then we don't need to post anything in this thread. If people want to talk about other things there are plenty of other threads to get lost in or shock horror they can start their own thread to discuss it.

    you’re boring mate, if you’re that certain clear off to another club.
    There’s people who rely on this club and statements like yours don’t help. If you’re certain we are going to be liquidated go buy your city or liverpool shirt now.
    I know I and many people will support this club until the end and IF that happens will support the phoenix club.

    So the Mods let this thread degenerate into a punfest - pages and pages of tripe which those seeking updates and info have to plough through.
    Start a new section or better still a new forum for the clowns.

    If the club survives I think Rooney has the potential to be the most influential Derby manager of my lifetime (I should mention I'm only 24 before you start twatting the keyboard). Even if this is his last season with us, the siege mentality he's created could have a lasting effect on the club.
    I'm particularly thinking about the relationship between the club and the fans when I say this. I'll leave the tactical stuff to our resident football geniuses.
    I hate Leeds and their fans as much as the next Ram but the relationship they have with their teams is almost second to none. They went to hell and back but on their way down the divisions they gained a siege mentality. They have a bravado/arrogance to their fanbase that can seem distasteful to the outside but is incredibly galvanising for the players/staff. They also don't boo them.
    Pride Park is different this season, the fans still showing up are generating the best atmosphere I've been a part of and there's 10,000 less of us. If we keep that, a club the size of ours will be successful without having to chuck too much money around.
    If we're getting results now with washed up free agents, academy players and 39 year old CB's, imagine what it's going to be like when we have a decent team again. The supporters getting an extra 10/20% out of the players will only get us so far and affect the table so much now but if we'd had more of that in those season's with promotion potential (13/14, 14/15, 15/16, 17/18, 18/19) maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.
    I don't take what Rooney's doing this year for granted, under the leadership of a lesser man the atmosphere could be utterly toxic the way it has been in recent tough periods. No offence to a great servant to the club but imagine if Darren Wassall was in charge of this team! Rooney's got this hopeless team in a hopeless situation playing with more guts than anyone else, if he wasn't doing that we'd be gaining nothing from our fall. 
    Maybe Rooney isn't a tactical mastermind but he's used what he has got to keep everyone's heads up; despite everything going on we feel like a "big club".
    I'm an optimist but I'm hoping we'll look back at the Rooney years as the period in which our support went from quite good to up there with the best in the country. That's something that will attract players, get us results we don't deserve and make the experience of watching Derby simply more fun, even if we're poo.
