Abu Derby

How about:
Eei, eei, eei, o, down the football league we go;
When the EFL have relegated us, this is what we’ll sing:
Your a load of bankers, but Rooney is our King. 

Can’t fault his attitude, impact or performances. Lad’s desperate for a league goal, though. As soon as he gets one I think we’ll start seeing the very best of him. 

Ravel Morrison had now played 15 games this season. That’s more than he’s played for 7 of the last 8 seasons. He’s also now regularly playing for Jamaica. He’s paid more than likely a fraction of what he used to earn and he’s playing for a national team that has no fans and not a huge chance of qualifying for the World Cup…
 
… and yet he’s playing and trying and showing a positive attitude. 
 
I think we probably don’t give this guy enough credit. Sure it can be frustrating when he goes backwards when he should go forwards. But frankly, in my view at least he’s the classiest player we have and I for one really hope he gets a few goals and continues to prove the doubters wrong.
Plus a tip fo the hat for Rooney who so far has proved he can manage him.
Come on ravel! Get a goal or two for us on Sunday!!

Funeral mate. DCFC died.

I do. He milked the adulation when things looked positive, couldn’t keep his trap shut, appearing on TalkSport whenever he liked, fans forums, giving it the big ‘un, yet not peep out of him when it all turned awry then he had the temerity to say if you say nasty things about me (at Pride Park) I’ll pull the plug.
Nobody said nasty things about him at the ground and guess what ? He pulled the chuffin’ plug anyway. I’ve no time for him.

I still don't understand how MM can just walk away and leave the club, its fans, staff and players in such a mess.
To continue to punish the club while the cause of the problems walks away is just scandalous.

I'm not really sure why DCFC never pursued QPR for compensation after the full scale of their FFPO breach was revealed. Both they and Leicester breached FFP rules that season. Leicester beat us home and away and QPR away and obviously at Wembley.
Then there's the case of our dear friends Notts Forest : placed under embargo in December 2015 for breaching FFP financial loss limits in season 2014/15, Forest spent big in the summer of 2014, including circa £6M on Britt Assombalonga who scored the equaliser in their 2-1 victory at PP in January 2015. Derby, if you recall, missed out on promotion by 1 point (we had a superior goal difference to the 3 teams tied above us with 1 point more). 
Let's not even think about Villa and their record-breaking wage bill.
If Middlesbrough and Wycombe fans feel hard done-by, don't come to us looking for sympathy or understanding.

He has.

How about this as a chant
Instead of stand up if hate forest
Stand up if hate efl and repeat.

I'm going to sue Bobby Madley thus,
1. On the 1st March 2014, in the 43rd minute of the Championship match between Burnley and Derby County, Mr. Bobby "Atwell my arse, watch this for a game of soldiers" Madley, did wilfully and maliciously refuse to award a blatant penalty to the aforementioned Derby County FC.
2. Furthermore, Mr Madley then wilfully and maliciously ruled out a perfectly good goal from the same passage of play that was beautifully stroked home by Jeff "I'll take you all on outside Revolution Bar" Hendrick.
3. Mr. Madley then proceeded to award a yellow card to Christopher "Wardrobe" Martin for diving, adding to the previously awarded yellow for being a wardrobe on a football pitch without prior consent. 
4. Mr. Madley acted with pre-meditation to deprive Derby County FC of taking the momentum from Burnley FC in this promotion battle. It is obvious to all that Derby would have gone on to beat Burnley due to the well established law of "get in to them once you are on the up and they are on the back foot grovelling", which is firmly established as football lore.
 
I demand damages of £250, due to Mr. Madley's actions stopping us finishing in the automatic promotion place, which is the approximate cost of me travelling down to that there London for a weekend of liver damaging drinking culminating in losing to an ageing QPR side that had broken the FFP rules to a level that Melvin Morris could only dream of.
Oh, and £5b which we would now be worth if we'd of gone up with that team.
 

When he becomes the prefered bidder he'll get my full support, But there's others out there that are not so loud.

He's hoovered up and regurgitated any lingering good faith I harboured. My thoughts on the EFL are well documented, but Mel had no business placing the club in administration. It makes me sad really as I do believe he started out with the best intentions, but he'll now only be remembered as a man whose word meant less than nothing.
He still has one last opportunity to 'do the right thing' but I doubt he will as he's smart enough to know that his legacy is now set in stone and no 'good deeds' will change that. The thing that angers me most is that in the process of undermining all of the remedial work undertaken by Clough Jr and his years of 'austerity' and hard graft, he's also inadvertently set fans at each others' throats. That's unforgiveable in my book. The fact that we now know he could quite simply have accepted a 9 point sanction rather than enter into admin will never be forgiven by some and even I can't find a way to defend that.

I’m out of his fan club. He should hang his head in shame and do a televised apology for the complete ruination of a great football club.

At 78 next birthday, I now have no hope in seeing my beloved Rams in the Premiership. So sad but I will continue to give them my full support.

owner Steve Gibson’s claim for around £45m is still to be addressed.
They feel Derby’s financial irregularities helped deny them a play-off place in 2019 after the Rams pipped them to the top six by just one point.
 
 

There is a point of contention that I understand the Administrators are discussing and could form the basis of another appeal. 
It’s this: when I was doing O level Mathematics, one rule that is beyond dispute (unless the rules of Physics have changed) is that two minuses make a plus. 
The EFL have made a serious error of judgment by awarding us two separate penalties. 
Therefore:. -12 - -9 = -12 + 9 = -3. 
We can live with -3 points, I can’t see what the fuss is about.
