Parachute payments aren't a bad thing in themselves, it's the use of them by the relegated clubs that is the problem. The EFL say they want changes but the EPL say that they aren't a problem and aren't going to change anything. Surely the EFL should put in their rules methods that will force the clubs to use these payments as a "parachute" and not as an escape rocket.
Instead of allowing bigger losses they should limit them to at best the same. This would reduce allowable spending. If the club doesn't get promoted within three years then they will have to reduce their squad and running costs accordingly. Also it should be a written rule that any club breaking FFP when promoted (exclude promotion bonuses for example) will receive a points penalty in their first season on being relegated. The size of the penalty should be on a running scale for the amount of overspend.

Although I agree that he probably will be gone, waving to the away end , even twice, doesn't necessarily mean that he is. Showing your gratitude for the support given to you personally can be just that.

I dunno - I saw it the same as Jram in that it looked a bit more than that. It had a look of 'au revoir' about it for me.
Unless he goes for £3m (which transforms our summer signings (but is unlikely)) I sincerely hope we keep him. Proper grafter.

I for one am proud of the effort and performance today there gk was mom 
we gave it everything and you can’t ask more than that…ultimately this game was decided on a crap decision but the lads gave it there all 
Jason Knights wave to fans I think means he’s off and some strikers are required …love my team and appreciate the effort they have all given 
also Thankyou David Clowes for saving our club we go again next season

You forgot to mention that Didzy failed to score again.

Some horrible tweets going Curtis' way I can see.
If any of you are doing that then stop it. Consider doing something constructive instead, like throwing yourself in to the sea.

Curtis has been a great servant of the club over the last 6 years, let's not forget that.
To end his Derby career like this, it's just hugely disappointing for everyone.
We can argue all summer over what he was doing there, end of the day it should not have been a penalty nor a red card.
Even if you give them the soft penalty, who knows what would happen with 11 men on the pitch.
It's over now though. Wish Curtis all the best in what comes next for him, be it on the pitch or in a studio.
Great guy. Massive shame.

Is there a rule against one team taking the kick off and then both teams running around a lot but not touching the ball?

Blimey Rich, has your wife got hold of your login.... I've never heard so much common sense....🤣

Thanks to everyone who has kept us informed about the progress of the Academy teams this season. Although it's been a tough slog for the youngsters, all the teams seem to be ending the season in a much better place than at the start of the season. Onwards and upwards!

Didn't she sing Buffalo Stance?

Is it connected to a camera? 👀

Stopped posting as no-one reading. We won 3-0, two clear penalties and the referee didn't hesitate in giving them. 
The final scoreline was more reflective of the dominance of Derby. Jack was a spectator most of the game but came out with a great save when he needed to.
Good to see the under 18s finish the season strongly.
Fapetu was my MOTM.

I don't know whether it will influence anyone to attend, but we can go to watch the under 18s play against Middlesbrough tonight at Pride Park , 6 pm kickoff.
@Brailsford Ram mentioned it a few days ago, but there has been nothing official put out by the Club. Anyway, a friend has rung and we can attend. I'm assuming East Stand as usual. 
It's a nice evening and young Jack Thompson will be playing in goal, hopefully Lennon Wheeldon up front too.
I've not had chance to see the under 18s this season, but they are playing well. 
If you do go, be kind to the young team. It will be the first time for many of them playing at Pride Park.

Why would they need drawers to overhaul the system?

I think you would have more chance if was a radio programme 😜

You're planning on sitting? 😲
Ye gads man, don't announce that in here!  👀
