Raminphilippines

Warne out
Warne must go, I have been looking at the states  and his record is terrible at Derby. We have not had a single win under him, not even a draw, in fact we have not even scored a goal under Warne. 

Welcome to the Derby way Warne. We will give you until the Cambridge match to prove yourself, if we do not win 5-0 we will be screaming for your head.

Where did they get these people from ?? Premiership?? Whos thinking premiership lol… i Mean really .

right now we have 5 players and tea lady whos only still here because of her love of the club 

Maybe they think we are getting Clough and Taylor back. 

News now in Quantuma will be running the club this coming season and they will be appointing their own manager and players. 
If you are planning to go to the first fixture at Bradford on July 9th it is expected to take place sometime in May 2023 as Quantuma will be trying to sort a few final details about the transport for the team.

There will be no news by 9pm?!?!?!?????

Sorry to tell you, where I am it is already 11:15pm and still no news. Only 45 minutes and it won't happen today. 

I am gutted he is leaving, I really can't see us going straight back up without Rooney, we will not be able to attract the same level of players that Rooney could. 

Does anyone know how many staff Q has working on the club and how many hours they have worked? 
From what I can workout it seems they only have 3 administrators working on the club, which would mean they are earning over £1,000 an hour each and that is if they are doing a 40 hour week, I suspect they do nowhere near 40 hours a week.

I’ve often thought that would be nice. But I’m not sure it’s practical. Just like national teams, where do you draw the line of someone being local. Can they have lived there for several years, can their grandma be from the place. Transfers have been around since literally the beginning when these Scottish lads were poached by one of the first football clubs (can’t remember the name, but it was on that series on prime or Netflix).

but I can eventually see something like a rugby league va rugby Union breakaway. I’ve never really understood the difference, but my impression is that one is very much all about the super league and the razzamataz, and one is more for the purists. 

I do find that this thought goes against everything I believe in, but then it should be considered as a sport first and a job second as it is not like other jobs. Maybe it could be done on the basis of you must have lived in a set radius of the club for at least the last 5 years to be eligible to play for them, and no Grandma rights.

I have been thinking for a few weeks the way to go might be a Phoenix League not just a Phoenix Club, A League that takes football back to its roots, where clubs only can play players from their own region. It would create more local interest and stop big transfers and salaries. 

Keep filling Pride Park to show any interested buyer that Derby will have big crowds no matter what happens to us.

It’s 5 o’clock somewhere soon

It is 1am here and I am still waiting to hear. My mouse is going to be worn out soon I have clicked to refresh so many times. Pointless going to bed as I won't be able to sleep.

Noon is noon whether you are in north or south. Unless you are in North Dakota or something. 

I am in the Philippines and noon was 8 hours 38 minutes ago. So I have known who the prefered bidder is for the last 8 hours but did not want to spoil your fun.

Unless you live under a rock whenever neutrals talk about our club they refer to him being a great owner and how you couldn't ask for better as a manager. I'm aware that as a Boro fan I'm more likely to hear and pick up on these things, but to deny it is just ignorance.

I guess you have never had any real dealings with Gibon. I come across him through work back in the 80s and he really was not a nice person to deal with. 

For me it has always been the never say die attitude of the supporters. Win or lose Derby Supporters always give their all and never stop singing. 
I remember one game at Norwich many years ago. We were getting relegated and Norwich had had a pretty good season, for most of the match all you could hear was Derby Supporters. The one time Norwich did make themselves heard they were trying to taunt us by singing "Going Down" Derby Supporters replied by Singing "We're Going Down" while jumping up and down celebrating. I am from Norfolk and people were asking me for weeks why the Derby Supporters were celebrating going down, they just could not understand it. For me that is the Derby Way.

Was Own Goals part of the deal with Gibon so they could reach the play offs?

Rooney will give him a very firm handshake, crack. 

I have inside information about the meeting.
Mel: OK Gibson what is your problem is it with me or is it Derby?

Gibson: I can assure you it is not with Derby.

Mel: So it must be with me?
Gibson: Indirectly it is with you.
Mel: What do you mean?
Gibson: Well you owned this stupid game?
Mel: What are you talking about?
Gibson: This Candy Crush game.
Mel: Yes I used to own it, what has that got to do with this mater?
Gibson: I am addicted to it.
Mel: You should speak to a doctor.
Gibson: I have but it did not help, it is the most exciting thing in my life.
Mel: I can understand that as watching Boro is not much fun.
Gibson: Yes, but it is worse. I have been stuck on level 1230 for the last two years.
Mel: Are you paying to play?
Gibson: Yes I have spent millions and I am still stuck on level 1230.
Mel: Millions?

Gibson: Yes Millions of pounds.
Mel: It wouldn't be the same as the amount you are claiming from Derby would it?
Gibson: hhhhmmm yes.
Mel: What if I show you a hack?
Gibson: Would you do that for me?
Mel: Give me your phone.
Gibson hands Mel his phone and after 5 minutes Mel gives it back.
Gibson tries it.
Gibson: YYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS I am now on level 1231 I love you Mel.
Mel: OK calm down.
Gibson: I am so happy I could hug you.
Mel: No need for that just drop the claim against Derby.
Gibson: OK but I still love you for getting me past that level. Wow I just completed 1231.

Gibson vs his Senior Chauffeur
Claimant: Mr Gerald Glover

Respondent: Bulkhaul Ltd (Gibsons Company)

The claimant was unfairly dismissed;

i. as the respondent used a sham reason for dismissing the claimant.

ii. it did not follow any fair procedure before dismissing the claimant.

I am sure I read a comment of your that said he was honest. Thats two cases I have found that show he is not. Incase you missed it the other one was Bulkhaul Ltd v Rhodia Organique.

Just to point out once again, the action began long long before you were in administration. Are you saying Steve Gibson is prescient and knew that you were going into administration so started the action in preparation for such a situation?

You do know that Gibson has a history of making claims that do not stand up in court? You should read up on Bulkhaul Ltd v Rhodia Organique Fine Ltd. 
The truth of this is Gibson is pi**ed off that Pride Park is worth more than Riverside. Something anyone with any common sense could work out the reason. For one property in Derby is worth more that it is in Middlesbrough, also Pride Park is in a better place to hold events, 8 minutes from the M1, only one hour from Britain's second city, and surrounded by many big cities.  Compare that to Riverside that is not really close to anywhere apart from Newcastle. 

I you are going to Middlesbrough make sure you give a long hard breath out before you leave, we don't want Gibbon making a claim that we stole their smog.

Well said, i don't suscribe to sky sport, my only interest in football is the rams and england occasionally. If we go under i will be finished with football.

When people ask me if I am a Football supporter? I always have replied "No, I am a Derby supporter, I follow Derby and have no interest in watching any other team." 

Ssssshhhh we don't need to mention that bit.
