    My understanding was it was 3-4 weeks to decide on the route out of admin. I.e. pick the winner. 
    hopefully wrap up the takeover by the first week in January. 
    and then hopefully the EFL will get their fingers out and settle whatever disputes and all point deductions will be done and by the end of the season for this season. So we go into the 22/23 season with a clean slate.

    It needs a good clear out at the top. It’s become stale, insular and lacking proactivity. I’m glad to see that Jim has made this step to engage with people outside of ramstrust. 
    to only have elections every three years is ridiculous. To have a chair and vice chair in position for so long is ridiculous. It becomes stagnant and needs fresh ideas. They need to be term limited positions.

    As Mel is no longer/will be no longer part of the club he can sell the ground to the new owners at whatever price he wants to and the EFL can't do anything about it as it's a separate party. 
    If you owned the ground for instance then it's entirely down to you what price you sell it for. Whether it's below market rate, above market rate or you just give it away because you're kind hearted.

    Hi Jim, I find it hard to be constructive regarding the Rams Trust, as simply it feels like a secret society. I don’t know what RT does, I don’t know RT’s objectives/purposes (if any) . It’s fair to say that over the internet period, I’ve been all over all forums, message boards and groups, but still know nothing about Ramstrust. 
     
    However, I did feel slightly narked at RT speaking on behalf of 50000 ppl who know nothing about Ramstrust. I don’t know who appointed Ramstrust as the only legitimate supporters trust, and the only one I recognise is Punjabi Rams. 
     
    Perhaps you should think on that.

    tinman reacted to Jayram in Bad behaviour by Derby (& coventry) fans again   
    It’s not so much that but it’s their general behaviour. At Brentford a couple of seasons ago I and a mate went to our seats only to find a couple of these Stone Island wearing pipsqueaks sitting there initially refusing to budge. It was only when I basically told them I’d remove them myself that they eventually slouched off. It put me on edge because it could quite easily have gone wrong and while I can handle myself I shouldn’t have to get into this sort of crap with fellow Rams fans. They have no respect for other Derby fans, standing up all game in front of older people who have no option but to stand themselves even if they are physically struggling to do so and spending the entire match facing the nearest home fans giving it the big one. Something has got to be done because they are actively ruining decent Rams fans away days. Absolute ******** the lot of them.

    Anyone trying to enter a football ground wearing Stone Island or one of those ridiculous looking jackets with goggles in the hood should be strip searched, including a full anal cavity inspection.
    Then charge them an extra £100 to enter and made to bring their mum to sit next to. 
    I have a bald patch and hair that's receding like the English coastline, even that doesn't come close to the embarrassment that I would feel leaving the house with a Stone Island badge slapped on my arm.

    Why do people insist on saying he could be this or could be that? His assets are perfectly suited to where he plays….attacking right back. Anywhere else and you’d see flaws in his game.

    tinman reacted to S8TY in Who would you like as new DCFC owner?   
    Ok ...I.ve never been one to say I'm ITK as I'm not but a good friend of mine was out with someone this weekend who is heavily involved as part of admin team and because my mate knows I'm a Ram got some interesting bits of info after a few beers apparently.
    Not loads of info and maybe some is known or old news  but thought I'd share anyway
    The debt is 105m and there are at least 6 parties very interested in taking over and looks promising ...
    Mike Ashley is 100 per cent one of those interested parties what i did find hard to believe was he said that 30m was owed to large chains of hotels for accomodation / hospitality /  away trips etc which seems excessive but says has built up over many years .....also said the club has been run very poorly but think we already know that

    tinman reacted to Carnero in Marshall in GOAL   
    Marshall and his biscuit wrists made loads of mistakes last season yet now he's out of the side people forget and he's suddenly the answer? Do me a favour.
    Roos is our best keeper in my view, but we should probably stick with Allsopp for now as we can't just drop a keeper every time they make a mistake, otherwise we'd be using 20+ goalkeepers a season, as would most championship teams.
