I thought the VAR ref won that game 

If you're so pleased, can we have our 2 million quid back?

Imagine the roar at 2:55 pm on 30th July, when the new Rams' team comes out of the tunnel!
Yes - teams will see DCFC as their Cup Final, we will see negative tactics from them and spoof results while the team consolidates - but we fans can also blast opposition into submission from our sheer passion, and we will make a few teams wilt!
Maybe we can boast 18,000 - 20,000 S/T holders....that's 3 times the attendances that most L1 teams will get, anyroadup!

And one who has given up lots:
 

With Clowes we're on the right track lads!! This was one of my dad's favorites, as many others on here have testified, football has been a family game for them and so it was for me. Many of my best memories with my dad were at the football, I hope he's having a pint up there and a celebratory cigarette too. 

Yep and the outfit that dictates our fate has Peter Ridsdale on their board. Nobody needs to say anything more, just google and think on. EFL criteria for a fit and proper test for any new owners, yeah right!  Joke organisation, so obviously riddled with leaks to the press and let’s not go there with how long they have had it in for us as a club, because our past chairman tried to take them on.
They’ve still not finished in my mind @Carl Sagan but tonight I just wish some karma back at them, so hope the Crouch led review has teeth and puts a few of them out of work, like we have lost good people (Shane Nicholson for one); hopefully the EFL at least lose a lot of their power to influence situations like ours in future.
Never has there been such an inept handling as our plight by a governing body in my mind. Other than that, they’ve done a great job helping us survive ?

Our friends at the EFL didn't take long to point out we remain under embargo.
https://www.efl.com/news/2022/july/efl-statement-derby-county-exit-administration/
The relevant extract reads:
"As part of the conditions of continuing membership in the EFL, the Club, whilst remaining under a registration embargo, will be permitted to sign new players in accordance with the terms of a business plan. The plan, which has been jointly agreed by the new ownership and the EFL, includes restrictions in respect of transfers fees, player wages and agents’ fees. Any application to register players must comply with the terms of those agreed plans."
I guess we all knew this was coming. What the statement does not say, is how long this will remain for. Is it the whole season? Is it the following season as well? 
And what the terms are will dictate how competitive we can be. As before, we cannot even extend registrations for existing players without meeting the EFL's demands. While I'm grateful we still have a club, I will never forgive the EFL for what they did to us. 

Extremely grateful to David Clowes for rescuing the club.
Despite always believing, maybe naively so, that liquidation would never have happened as it wasn’t in the best interests of any of the parties, it has still been extremely mentally draining.
I’ve spent more and more time offline unable to follow the daily news cycle, honestly can’t thank the moderators enough for keeping this platform running so smoothly. All those mentioning me and thanking me for this platform, you’re thanking the wrong person. 
What we have appears to be another reluctant benefactor/owner of the football club, someone that has not ran a football club before and there will be mistakes made along the way, that’s to be expected.
He will have pumped a shed load of money into this club, money he has no doubt worked hard for and may never see a penny of again, incurring further losses that come with owning a football club as the years roll by.
Personally, I think he’s a bit nuts to do this, but I’m glad he is. I just hope he can surround himself with the right people that can be trusted to assist him with running the club, something our previous owner got badly wrong, especially early on.
Let’s not forget, this game we all love is still massively broken thanks to the PL and EFL, we shouldn’t have to rely on draining multi millionaires wallets then moving on to the next, football clubs should be able to be ran sustainably like any other business. The governing bodies really need to get a grip, but sadly I fear we will need to see a big club go under for them to wake up and get a grip.
What we have just been through, we won’t be the last, I just hope that the next is either Boro, Wycombe, Bristol City, Forest or Leeds.
I genuinely do not want them to go out of business, just go through the torturous process and feel what we have, to sit there watching their club as opposition fans sing they are having a party when they die.
I’m going to have a party watching you suffer, I honestly can’t wait. 

You are a better person than me mate. I can never forgive Maguire, Parry, Gibson and Couhig who went out of their way to destroy our club. 
You are absolutely right though, tonight is for realising how close we came to oblivion and celebrating the fact that we have a Derby County to support next season.
David Clowes, I raise my glass to you sir,?

Ok. I dont post much but have spent more time on this thread than is healthy. Morning, noon, night, at work, at airports, in hospital and so on. The news is fantastic and I will be eternally grateful to DC for saving the club and allowing me and my boy to keep avidly following dcfc home and away. Means so much to us all. Just a massive thankyou to everyone who has endeavoured to keep posting every snippet of information, every relevent tweet, every update and making it easy to find everything in one place. In the main you have posted stuff on here way before it was picked up anywhere else and seconds after it was realeased.  I really  appreciate your efforts in keeping us updated and once again for playing ahuge part in supporting us all with witty comments, beer talk, absolute rubbish at times but I have felt amongst true fans on this forum and am so pleased we can look forward again. There will be better days ahead for us all. 

Here Here!

Sorry if this has been mentioned but just to add, imagine how the non-playing staff must feel tonight.  Those in the ticket office, club shop, admin staff, etc.  They know they’re future is secure.  Hope you’re still bringing us RamsTV next season @Owen87ITK .

I was there at Glastonbury mate, incredible night.

The most complicated football administration in history, other insolvency practitioners said it was near impossible and they wouldn't touch it with a bargepole. 
Yet here we are, clean out the other side in less time than its taken other, less complicated administrations to be resolved, with no lingering issues such as stadium ownership, paying off our dues over 3 years etc etc, and good, if not entirely comfortable time to plan for the season ahead.
No need to worry about paying a landlord rent on our home ground, no sword of Damacles hanging over our head in regards to further points deductions, a clean and clear exit from administration, which has looked unlikely from the off. 
Maybe Quantuma knew what they were doing all along, after all we've exited administration in the best possible shape we could have hoped for? 
Great job, guys.

Word for word ? Lovely to hear how much it means to so many of us. Feel sorry for the likes of Ed, I know it’s an unfortunate part of the job but he hasn’t deserved the stick he got from people. Let’s hope this relief and experience leads to a more appropriate response from fans in general ? 

Ed dawes is a f****** legend 
welling up on radio…. Nothing but total respect for the guy 

Ed Dawes in tears on Radio Derby ❤️ 

Pfft do stress all the straight jacket stuff.
Typical of them, bunch of Bar stewards. They can all rot.

A yummy typo indeed.
I'd love to be on the end of a lunch mob.

Sorry but this is a farce, every single time it’s close another “unforseen” obstacle gets put in the way. 
we’re a ******* WEEK away from our first friendly and have no team to field. Fans treated with absolute disdain as usual and seemingly not one of those clowns at the club know their arse from their elbow as per usual. 
Ducking wake up and get it sorted you utter, utter morons!!!
