May I take this opportunity to point you in the direction of the Jim Smith forum, where you can discuss bygone Derby to your hearts' content! 
Just have a thought for people coming in from busy days at work having to wade through all this.

The administration thread, bought to you by Bygones.

Come on admin
Get these talks with wycombe done so you can get this freaking take over the line.

I came across and acquired this hallmarked gold & silver Derby County Player Medal in last few days from an Antique Emporium in Yorkshire. 
Providence confirms it was made in 1886 in Birmingham. Derby County only played 2 games in 1886 against Aston Unity and Birmingham St Georges in the FA Cup and these medals were presented to the Derby County players in recognition of the match. 
A very rare find indeed and I’m thrilled to have found it. 
I thought I’d share it as a point of interest. ??
 

I’m sorry but I think Wayne has more attachment to DCFC than he does to Chris Kirchner.

Exactly this. The fact stands and I will keep repeating it. Yes cut and paste as the statement stands the test of time. I don’t really think anything else is needed. Having him (Ridsdale) in any kind of role in football makes the ‘fit and proper test’ totally hypocritical in my opinion along with any other regulations they try to enforce. 
 
Another statement I stand by is that regardless of what happens to us the EFL have walked to the gallows, tied the noose around their neck and are about to pull the lever. They have even been so kind as to dig their own grave.
 
This whole episode will be the end of the rotten cancerous dictatorship that rules over the 72 clubs. Despite all the pain and suffering we have all been through I will take solace in the fact that we were the reason the EFL crumbled.

Anyone else found themselves supporting whomever Wycombe are playing? 

Think the EFL could be tempted to give us 3 points back to shut us up if this Sun article is truthful? I hope that’s our angle and we don’t stoop to the level of Boro or Wycombe

Recently I benefited from a free ticket from the very generous @twelveincher
Due to a holiday I am away for the Millwall game so my 3 ST’s will be available. 
 
I don’t want anything for them, more than happy for someone who may not be able to usually attend to have them. They are in the North Upper directly behind the goal. 
 
I am in Chesterfield so may need collecting. 
 
Feel free to pass on should you know anyone who might like them.

Reinforcements on the way, trains just come in

If Mr Gibson has agreed an ACCORD does that make him an ACCORDION?
ie: A wheezy wind box that makes an excruciating bleating sound when you press his buttons and put the squeeze on?
(Definition works for MM too)

They were deducted 25 points after going into administration, leaving them 20 points adrift at the bottom of the table. 
They finished 6th, 24 points ahead of 9th and 10th.
Their joint second top goalscorer with 8 goals?
This man.

It might be bloody-minded of me, but if Quantuma have (finally) been allowed to name a PB - after the EFL & Boro blocked it for 2 months, IMHO in a calculated fashion, and caused squad decimation and the prospect of liquidation, I'd be minded to decline the EFL bustards.
I hope the fan groups demand a prompt approval of the PB. And an apology.
The EFL fudged and farted their way along the transfer window, on strings manipulated by Gibson, until the damage was done and last-ditch interventions via MPs etc were required.
Maybe the EFL are now conscious of the attention that will turn upon themselves and they want to 'make friends' with fan groups perceived to be capable of wielding influence over the DCFC fanbase. No anti-EFL petitions, please, look how we solved it for you!
Parry & Co can burn in hell.

I appreciate Gibson finally admitting that this was always about settling a score with Mel.
Shame he tried to kill DCFC in the process, and Boro fans are carrying on like we should be worshipping the ground he walks on.
We now simply know that this was always about two very wealthy man-children risking the future of a football club that is older than both of them combined to settle petty scores.

Yet again fans are looking for answers to questions and you’re trying to shut those down with information that you can’t prove, having caught up with the topic there is multiple examples of this.
You attempted to shut down my Football Creditor topic, an issue which is clearly relevant and been picked up on both by MP’s and the media, even yesterday one MP telling the EFL to tread very carefully as they could remove the Football Creditor status for everyone and forced to operate like a usual business. A threat that has come from the EFL’s insistence on us treating both Boro and Wycombe’s claims of football debt.
Regulation 4.4, a regulation which Middlesbrough’s lawyers sent to Mel Morris, omitting a key line that says only the EFL can take action, yet you believe the regulation to be a non issue as it’s just on good faith. Please explain why the Middlesbrough lawyers used that in their letters to Mel Morris to form their claim if it’s not relevant, have you seen the claim and have a better understanding of it than the clubs lawyers?
And here we are again, trying to say bilateral contracts exist between clubs, which again just isn’t true. This is true in the Premier League hence why it’s written for all to see, it’s also been seen in court with cases between clubs. Yet you will not find a single line of proof this exists from the EFL, nor will you have any examples of clubs suing each other in the EFL because it just does not exist.
Please, please, stop spreading misinformation whilst we as a community of fans within the fanbase are trying to find answers from the EFL, it’s not helpful and completely counter productive as we try to help save our club.
