Animal is a Ram

How to keep the stakeholders up to date that something is progressing, without actually needing to be too specific. Imagine if Derby County had such clear communication! Looking forward to seeing what you have to share.

Quick update: I have just left the meeting which is still ongoing otherwise I would miss the last train.
A decision was made not to release minutes for this meeting in the end, but I am free to get a write up out to you all as soon as I can. 
I do not have a laptop with me and would prefer to wait until tomorrow once I’m home and can go through all the notes.
I will aim to have it ready to post on the forum tomorrow.
Please do not bombard me with questions across the forum by mentioning me, PM, DM or text if you have my number.
I don’t want to be putting bits and pieces out there all over the place.

He is legendary on the end of a cross though

No other club is being hounded to death and restricted from bringing in players as a result of an 18 month vendetta against them despite not actually breaking any set-in-stone rules.
Most of our issues are a a direct result of being held guilty for a year of something we were found innocent of, and then found guilty (at the second, long delayed attempt) by decree of opinion (not law, not even based on any written rule) of a second charge, coupled with ill health leading to a reassessment of priorities.
If we were allowed to operate freely and spend money we would have done, we wouldn't be in this situation if we weren't being treated with the utmost hypocrisy by an organisation which demands everything is explained in detail to them (well, they do now, they weren't bothered 3 years ago) and yet makes up new rules without any justification or explanation at the drop a hat.
Mistakes have been made of course, but it's football and most things go tits up unless you happen to have a massive dollop of luck along the way.
It's funny just how many mistakes get covered over and never talked about by virtue of just one thing going right and vice versa
By all means shout your arse out about how much you hate Mel, I suspect you're more likely to find the people around you telling you to shut the duck up than join in with you, but we'll see.

In your case you could introduce yourself with your forum name.
 

First time back at Pride Park since Chris Martin scored two and Sibley belted one into the top corner.
Thought we were on the verge of a playoff push.

It won’t be a weakened team in the sense that all our best players are not playing.   It will be the strongest team that we can put out, our best players on the pitch.
it will be a weak team, not a weakened team.

Derby County Football Club belongs to you, but also to the people of the city and the community of fans around the world. And many are very worried for the club's future. What are your plans for the club if the worst happens and you cannot find someone to buy it off you?

It would appear that insufficient due diligence was carried out on the prospective sales to BZI and Erik Alonso.
Who carried out due diligence and what measures have been put in place to ensure that we are not sold to such an unprofessional outfit?

I would like to submit this non football related question, but one that I feel on a human level should be asked.
Mel, how are you and how is your health?

I wouldn't say buying a loaf of bread are comparable.
Food is a necessity. 
A nice car and football matches aren't. 

Pretty sure I paid about £50 to watch Derby play at Chelsea about 15 years ago.
I have kids these days though and prioritise my spend, I wont pay over £35 for a match ticket personally (other than when I watch England) and that includes Forest away.
But I unless the prices are completely ridiculous I don't see the point in moaning. 
As a customer, if you think something is too expensive just don't buy it!
 

Couldn't resist.

In isolation, I'd normally ignore this as 'former football player now manager being a little silly' nonsense. A consequence of selecting the likes of famous types as managers. Likewise with the Knight incident. It's been sensationalised, and in isolation, chances are it was something that could happen anywhere. If it was two players, it'd just be frustrating and a slice of bad luck
But it's just another poke in the eye of Derby fans that are only receiving bad news associated with the club at the moment. As others pointed out, he spoke after the Salford game about restoring some pride and dignity to Derby County, only to then put himself in these types of situations. Adds to the sense of disillusionment that I know I'm feeling, and I'd be willing to bet some other people are.
