Simmo’s left foot

I wonder if he has priced himself out of a job?

Beer throwing and smoke bombs in the concourse, why are these idiots not being dealt with?

An erection?

The point is the club has lost a seasons worth of season ticket money, so cash flow has had a huge hit.

My season ticket was free, as the previous season I got 100% credited because of covid. I suspect that's what the majority opted for. Hence a huge reduction in season ticket renewal cashflow last summer.

Don't forget we had very little season ticket money last summer also. Most tickets were free this season.

Bloody hell!

Loads of possession, but done nothing incisive with it. We have gone back to side passes and back passes ?

Reading 0 Derby 3. FRGS Joz.

In the words of Lord Flasheart, Lets dooooo it!

Yes, certainly a challenge, let’s see how the next 5 games take us, once we drop below that line it will be very difficult to recover.

Here is a coming home showing the points per game needed to get to 48 points at the end of the season, which should be enough to stay up. The recent run of 3 wins puts us bang on the line and we need to maintain 1.71 points per game, which is play off form! Its going to be a ride for sure.

I don't think we should give an inch, if we do then a precedent would be set for numerous other claims between various clubs. The EFL would be ruined overnight.

Can we have a lorryful of nice fresh manure delivered to Gibsons front gate?

Yep, its all about creditors, cash flow and cash in hand now.  

At least we are rocking on the field though ?

Great guy JR, always plays with a smile. Will never forget that goal in the deforestation match ?

City hospital Derby, but have never lived in Derby.

Derby County.

Weaned on it from birth Dads a liflong fan and we still sit together.

Stoke 1 Derby 2 FRGS Bird.

I don't think we will be liquidated, however I do think the takeover will drag on and there will have to be player sales/releases from next week to 1. Increase cash in hand 2. Potentially reduce some debt and 3. Improve cashflow projections in the second half of the season, as we prepare for L1. Lets not beat about the bush.

Don't forget we are currently relying on a MSD loan to fund operations going forward, that cannot continue and the club has to be able to live on cash generated.

So high earners, decent fee or a combination of these two criteria will potentially be outward moves I'm afraid. Maybe Wayne will be allowed to bring a freebie or two in on low wages. Lets see, but don't underestimate the situation we are in.

Interestingly, if we use total points per game so far and apply that to the remaining games it suggests 35 points. However if we use the average points per game from the last 6 games it suggests 45 points.. So if we keep scratching out a few wins we could potentially be on track to be close.. it will be interesting to see how the next 2 games go!

A company owned by Mel Morris owns the stadium, with a charge against it by MSD as security for a loan. As long as Mel's company services the loan, then he still owns it. I assume the rent charged to DCFC covers the finance for the original sale and leaseback. This is actually common asset management in many other industries, such as aviation. 

I'd suggest that if he is serious about a career in football management he has to be seen as not being a quitter, particularly in his first job. Hence he is doing the right thing and working hard to manage within the constraints he has. Good attitude to take in my opinion, in this day and age of over entitled, over paid managers in football.

Some great defensive work from Festy at left back, shows another side to his game, not just the pace he has.

No Lawrence, Buchanan or Jozwiak. Hmm....not good. Is this due to covid, or potential transfer activity?

I don't think CK is to be taken seriously. Nobody knows who he is, or where is the cash is coming from. He seems to be a twitter warrior too, which is not the way to do business. No thanks. With Appleby we would get a consortium of investors and the club run in a fairly balanced way. With Gadsby we will also get a consortium of local (Probably) investors who will also run the club in a balanced way, but maybe with only just enough cash to go forward.

Head says Appleby, heart says Gadsby.
