  1. He was always going to be a risk, shame for him its not worked out. I do fear for him, if he cannot cope with the privileged life of a pro footballer, what will he do when confronted with the real world we all live in?

  2. Another decent trio of wages wages off the books, don't forget the club has lost two thirds of its income, and will continue to do so for the next season. Young hungry players and a few experienced free signings is what I expect to see this season. Mid table at best I suspect. That must be another £1 million per year wages reduction, on players who have not really contributed in the last season. Sensible in my opinion.

    Shame its not worked out for Jack though, exiting player when he is on it, but he seems to lack ambition.

     

  3. This whole FFP thing could be made very simple:

    1. Scrap parachute payments.

    2. If relegated, all players in relegated team switch to championship contract and pay, this written into all premier league contracts.

    3. Limit wages to no more than 75% of forecast trading turnover (Transfer receipts not included) Agreed in advance for each season.

    4. Apply wage cap to any individual player wages.

  4. I lived abroad until last September, and have continued to subscribe to Rams TV, even though as a season ticket holder I had a code. 

    100% increase in any service is just taking the mick, and I will be cancelling my Rams TV subscription immediately. Incidentally the day trips to The Netherlands is also costing £12 a month, so I’ll be cancelling that too!

    very disappointing, it will just mean radio Derby for away games for me. The club will lose a large % of subscribers I suspect.

  5. Derby 1 Sheffield Wednesday 1. FRGS Knight 89th minute, Weds equalise 91st minute. Rotherham to draw tonight and win on saturday their winner scored in 92nd minute. Rams and Owls both relegated. Rooney resigns on sunday. As a rams supporter for 50 years, I've never been so fed up.

  6. Quote

    As it happens, 40% of UK electricity is from renewables (yes that high!) and about 15% from nuclear.

    Not today, wind is producing circa 1.6%, CCGT is producing 55%, Coal and biomass over 15%, Nuclear 9% 

    Wind generation is fine, but what happens when a still day like today?

  7. Best of luck to him with the move, hope we get to see him doing well there, as a Derby old boy ? 

    I think to be honest we are doing the right thing, moving on players who can raise a fee, reduce the wages outlay a bit, with not too much impact in the near term. Gordon, Whittaker and Evans. Not 100% about Evans but if we are loaning in a lad from Man Utd then so be it. Seems decent management to me from Rooney.

     

  8. I've had a refund, from last season, as the current monthly amount I pay for this current season has reduced, to allow for the refund from last season. Every game that you cannot attend will mean a credit applied to next seasons season ticket. I'm happy with that.

  9. I certainly think that Fish is a great commentator, its great to have him on Rams TV, hes a fan and a BBC East Midlands old boy. ? Personally I hated the sounds of the coaches bellowing and would have preferred a bit more crowd background. It must have been difficult last night though.

    Love the idea of a documentary showing behind the scenes at Rams TV. How about an interview with Martin re his life as a commentator? I bet he has some great stories to tell.

    Keep up the good work on Rams TV, its a lifeline for us expats!
