You're right, however it seems like we're up against both.
The FA is investigating the wages issue. The EFL is responsible for implementing -3 if they wish.

I would hope that with Morris out of the picture completely, and Clowes trying hard to do the right thing the FA might drop its vendetta against us and just give us a slap on the wrist over the wages issue.  One thing for certain it wasn't any of the prospective owners fault.
The appropriate action (if any rules were breached) would be to go after Quantuma who were responsible for day to day management and financial control, Kirchner who was claiming ownership and supposedly funding us, and Stretford, although the other 2 parties should know if they were able to accept his money or not.
Would be pretty hillarious if those who have acted ridiculously over the past 9 months got their just desserts.  

Language Timothy!

Is that an asterisk after Clowes? You know, just in case.....

I know he's a Brummy but hasn't Roy Wood from Wizzard lived in Derbyshire for years.
He's done everything he can to keep his Xmas track going, even so far as duetting with the wombles, so I'm sure we could get him to re-write that for us. Everyone knows the tune.
Maybe get him, the guy from 1D, the guy from Blur and whoever else to form a supergroup. Must be able to do something using Cox, Wizz and a Hor?

Curtis is a bloody legend. You just knew he would turn up regardless. The man is unequivocal.
Props to Fozzy, Stearman and CKR too, even though I'm surprised the last 2 weren't on the released list.
We could do worse than getting Curtis and CKR on the coaching staff in the next 12 months.
Curtis seems integral to the fabric of this squad - we talk about Liam being continuity after Wazza walked, but Davies is a key part of any model going forward - universally respected, a great ambassador, and seemingly with both the intelligence and drive to move from mentor to coach and possibly further up.
CKR also seems to have a good attitude/positive outlook that would translate well.
Interesting that there's no mention of Bird or Buchanan. The way things are going lately I expect to be told that we've finally been taken over and then an hour later that they've walked away for free thanks to a loophole.
 

If he's cheap he's versatile and would count as an 'experienced player' for the Papa John's trophy, and a decent enough stop gap for the first team to cover injuries, suspensions and game management. Also think I heard last year he was good to have around the dressing room too.

I buy into the third scenario that some turned up (CKR and Curtis for example) but others didn't. No videos, photos or interviews are being posted in order to avoid unhèlpul speculation as to who may or may not be staying/joining whilst conversations may be continuing. A very sensible approach IMO if true. 

No training pictures/ interviews mean 1 of 2 things. Either no one’s really turned up or they’re a s**** ton of trailists and we don’t want to show them in case they get pinched by another club

Based on some things I’ve been told and things the man himself has said/done I think his post football career is planned for the media. I think you’re right in that he’d make an excellent coach/manager just not sure it’s what he has planned for himself.
I do think he’s integral along with CKR for this season. Where a lot of us suspect Rosenior has the coaching/tactical nous to tap into as the Manager, I think having Curtis as club captain and CKR in the squad will go some way to motivating and driving the players standards/behaviours on and off the pitch.

I've heard (same source who suggested the pink kit tip a couple of years ago) that Derby's new change kit is in a colour called 'potion'
A Google search for "Umbro Potion" comes up with a few images, including the attached 'Purple Potion' shirt from Brentford's training range last year. 
He's the one who said the home shirt looked like 'a paint brush had been cleaned on it' - would that tie in with that sleeve detail?
 

I wonder whether B4 classes this as pink or not? 

Wednesday fan in peace
Joe is steady but none of our last 5 or 6 managers have ever trusted him to be number 1. 
 
If he’d have stayed at Wednesday he would have been 3rd in the pecking order, so can understand why he left
As for league 1 get ready for time wasting, the worst officials ever seen and teams upping there game against you as it’s there biggest game of the season. Not much football played in this division either so I’d suggest a few big cloggers in the side

Could Buchanan's extension have been reliant on playing at least 30 games in the final year of his contract?
It could explain why he was playing every game in the second half of the season, and then dropped as soon as he hit 30...

When we see John Brayford and Jake Buxton back in his training gear then we will know Nigel Clough is coming back!

Terry Thomas? Oh I say!

I'm not necessarily at the same level of disenchantment, but I just wanted to say this is probably the best written post I've read on this or any other forum.

With the exception of Danny Ings most tribunal fees are pretty rubbish. I'd say £200-400k with a few add ons IF they count him as a contracted player. 
Our best hope is they wanted to beat United and Spurs to his signature so they offered us a few to negotiate whilst he was still under contract.
If on the other hand we're talking a solidarity payment/development fee then it's pretty minimal and both Arsenal and Rangers will get a share too.

He hasn’t got to bed yet.
