    MikeS reacted to richinspain in RamsTV Subscription increased by EFL   
    To sum up, I agree that comparing with actually going to matches it's a very cheap option. What I don't agree with is a 100% price rise with the added "bonus" of not being able to watch all the league games. As I stated at the beginning of the thread, I kept my subscription on over the summer when there were no games available, but I knew that there weren't any games. As a season ticket holder how would you feel about having to miss about 20% of games because the club decided that it was ok to offer them to someone who was willing to pay more? And on top of that, the bigger games because they would be the more attractive ones.

    Stearman and Jagielka might be training with the club, they might even sign up as squad players, who knows. There's no transfer fee and they're not going to demand massive wages are they at their ages? If they did, we wouldn't be able to sign them anyway.
    But, you know, we need bodies in the CB position. We also need experience in the CB position. 
    Who better than Stearman, Jagielka and Davies to teach our U23 CB's about that position?

    I would agree until you see the number of games that Sky were screening (especially midweek) or another outlet showing abroad, so precluding Rams TV coverage.

    I feel sorry for those who miss half the games because they're selected for Sky

    Yeah, because that's the way to combat 'free' streaming.
    Raise the price enough so that even if the numbers drop the income increases. Football continues to price out the average fan.

    That’s absolutely ridiculous, at a time where people have lost businesses, homes and livelihoods the EFL in their total inept wisdom decide to not only raise the subscription fee, they ***** well doubled it!!  
     
    Absolute bunch of clowns, the lot of them

    Just had an email from the club and the overseas subscription for matches has doubled up to 25 quid!!! 
    That's ridiculous imo, I really enjoyed watching the matches last year, well not the football.... Or the results ... But the access was good!

    MikeS reacted to jono in EFL Verdict   
    What really stings and gives life to the allegations of a vindictive nature in all this, is the “the EFL reluctantly” .. why reluctant ? There was some wrong doing, the Independent panel gave a sanction .. so that’s it .. why “reluctantly” ? It stinks as an attitude and is fundamentally wrong on so many levels. You have a system where there is a complaint and a system that provides for an independent panel to adjudicate but somehow the The body that represents the clubs, that drew up the system in the first place isn’t prepared to accept its outcome in an appropriate manner .. Why would you appeal or even reluctantly accept a verdict given by a system you designed ? The independent committee is designed to give a balanced view, to remove the partisanship the EFL shouldn’t be showing in any case , but clearly is.

    It'll be better when the top teams in the championship form the premier league 2. 
    Sky probably need it because they no longer have exclusive prem rights and the teams in our division need it because the EFL arnt fit and proper. It would be the lesser of two evils

    Gibbo and the EFL - the tail wagging the dog. 
    That little twerp had better be squeaky clean because if I were the EFL I’d want to be assured that he practices what he preaches. 
    He needs to concentrate on his own business which is running a small football club with very few fans, limited history, located in the arse end of nowhere and with a pensioner as a manager.

    MikeS got a reaction from hintonsboots in Wycombe threaten to sue and send us into admin. if we stay up!   
    After all this horrendously protracted affair, the only misdeed which the club has been found guilty of so far is failing to "exercise due care" in relation to an important obligation", the amortisation of players.
    The panel found the use of a different (otherwise well-used ) system was a breach of League rules and had not been clearly set out enough in the accounts. However, it thought that it had not been proved that the club gained an advantage over other clubs or allowed the club to spend more money on players than permissible. Therefore, no sporting sanction was applicable for the breach.
    Now we wait for the re-worked accounts. If they prove (if.....!) to be within the limits, then a lot of people will have egg on their faces and owe an apology to the club and its owner.

    Best 10 minutes from any player this season. Top pro and great guy. Would have conceded if it wasn't for his cameo,I'm sure of that.
    Football isn't a game for sentiment though.

    Jozwiak may have been scrutinised this season for his performances but I don’t think anyone has faltered him for lack of effort, which is more than we can say for Lawrence and Waghorn. Always puts in 100% and today he was really good.

    It's not what we think he would do, it is what he thinks he would do. According to a recent interview, he has been watching Derby a lot so must have a good idea of the set-up and its current failings. Which is a lot more than Rafa or Eddie Howe when a quick turnaround is essential.
