Funny though.

Suspect the possession of drugs didn't help with the sentencing. 

It’s obvious the name calling was what brought him to the attention of the police. They told him to mind his language. He got gobby at the police. They decided they’d had enough and nicked him for essentially being a Rick parry. 
just his luck that his brain cell was on holiday and he forgot that gobbing off to a policeman while having a pocketful of drugs isn’t the wisest thing to do. 

It's not the first time Rooney's mentioned the referees and Derby being targetted. He said it a few times at the start of the season. 

Can you two stop flirting and just get a room?

We got poohoused in true Rowett style. They packed their defensive third and aimed to counter. 

I’m not sure what’s more boring. the chat about interpretation of clauses or the chat about accountants 

Why stop at 2?  Why not have 21?

Blackburn went down under Mowbray with 51 points . The bottom teams always seem have their best run in the last 10 games when it gets really urgent.

Not really true. The ppg doesn’t really change much between now and the end of the season. 
2018/19 season is the closest to the average points from the last ten seasons. The ppg for 21st place in that season increased by 0.02 from game 30 to the end of the season. You’ll find it does increase between now and the end of the season, but it regresses back down

With 5 days until the next first team game, it makes sense to involve all of those needing match fitness. It'll also be a much needing boost to the squad following a run of bad form.

Predicted lineup:

Foulkes
McDonald   Bardell   Cashin   WGP
Watson   Matthews
Sibley   Aghatise   Wilson
Stretton

Subs: Roberts, Solomon, Robinson, Ebiowei, Cybulski

McDonald's out injured. Solomon too.

Sibley, Cashin, Stretton all involved

I expect this is Gibson asking Mel to settle out of court instead which I can't see happening

It does mention a donation to charity in the article. A nice get out for all involved.

Do you weight them equally?

Yep, keeping it simple. 
 

PPG at this point over the season won’t change too much, but a burst of results can have a sharp impact.  although as the season goes on the impact on season PPG diminishes. 
for example our season PPG will put us on 28 points, but the last 6 games will put us on 39. That’s quite a difference. And Readings is virtually the opposite.

I think that's why I use season-to-date form. It is the most pessimistic, but takes into account these sporadic groups of wins.

I use an average of season so far and the last 6 games. 
 

7 wins should do it. 8 home games left this season

He made his debut (on loan) on 5th March 2013, so just over a year to go until his testimonial is due.

There are some Q&A’s on the Rams Trust website from the meeting that have been added this morning but, as far as I can see, there is no mention of the EFL ruling out going to the high court (maybe I’ve missed it). Did you access your version from a reliable source?

The most relevant question and answer I can see is the one below. Maybe the final four words of the question are important if arbitration addresses “EFL rules”:

 

How would the Boro and Wycombe claims be dealt with in a normal company insolvency where EFL rules don’t exist?

Creditors are invited to submit claims for debts owed. The Insolvency Practitioner would then adjudicate on whether the claims should be accepted in full, rejected in part or rejected in full. The creditors can then challenge the Insolvency Practitioner’s decision through the Court if all or part of their claim has been rejected.

It was emailed direct from Ramstrust. So decide for yourself if you think they’re a reliable source!

I really don’t  get why that piece about “normal” businesses was left out of the minutes. 

Just now, PistoldPete said:

Oh. Why are they secret?

Because they want to feel they are better than the rest of us?

Is this confirmed

It’s in the secret notes sent out to Ramstrust members last night

There was apparently a solicitor on RD last night who confirmed MM’s whacky scheme would get thrown out.  
 

Someone on here suggested something different : that Gibbo sue the club in the HIgh Court and MM should bear the cost. This is perfectly doable and equivalent to MM giving the club an indemnity. It might need EFl consent tho’
 

The EFL have ruled out taking the case to the Hight COurt

Not that I am aware of.

"Arbitration is still being convened – club wanted to go to High Court, but EFL
ruled this out."

How come the minutes have less detail in than the notes sent out to ramstrust members? 

Missed the start. How come matthews is on the pitch?

It's matchday!

The team the last time we faced Man City (October) included 3 players who are no longer with us and at least 4 who're going to be with the first team: Foulkes, McDonald, JBrown, Cashin, Bardell, RHutchinson, LThompson, Dixon, IHutchinson, Plange, Cybulski

Looking at the squad... we only have 10 U23s available to choose from!

My predicted team: 

Foulkes
McDonald   Solomon WGP   Brailsford
Robinson   Clarke
Dixon   Aghatise   Watson
Cybulski

Subs: Roberts, Matthews, Sebagabo, Ibrahim, Borkovic

Dixons injured

I wonder if this would fall under the "systematic cheating" which both parasites have referred to in the past. The claim being that Derby were actively looking for loopholes to exploit?

What if a club owner had sold the cola debts to another one of his companies? That sounds like systematic cheating to me

If you think about it Mel could sort this in 5 minutes. He drops the stadium price by 7 million to prospective new owners, that money pays off the blood sucking parasites and the takeover is good to go. But Mel's ego is as big as the Gibbon's so he would rather see the Rams go to the wall than end the feud he has with the joker. I hate the thought of Boro getting a penny but this could be resolved pretty quickly....

HMRC or other actual creditors will say That 7 million would need to go to them.

So the EFL believe the claims should be classed as football debt, did I read that right? So literally any number that WW or MFC plucked out of their heads, we’d have to pay? 

I’d assume that would be the part that arbitration would decide. Are they due any and how much.
