My opinion is that this is just going to be the start of a few clubs announcing losses above the already massive norm and going into admin.
I know I'm biased, but surely this should have been taken into consideration by the EFL when we went into admin as the period without fans has caused all clubs major financial problems.
 

Boro and Stoke also getting a mention in this

There's 6 I believe.
1 from Boro
1 from Forest
Risdale from PNE (ex-Leeds)
Jez Moxey at Burton
Fleetwood
and one other.
You could make an argument on bias for 3 of those people, although you would hope and probably believe that they are beyond partisanship.

First choice Sonny Dieng is away at AFCON and deputy Jordan Archer hurt his shoulder in the FA Cup, so they are left with the option of an untried youth player starting.
Obviously no club should be forced into that ?

This has appeared the case all along. It's internal football politics. The EFL people hate us and also want a big scalp.
Meanwhile, here's an open letter from a blogger called Ollie Wright who might be on here: https://derbycountyblog.com/an-open-letter-to-supporters-of-middlesbrough-football-club-and-wycombe-wanderers-football-club/
It could be something to tweet to both clubs whenever they tweet something out (as was suggested earlier in the thread)? I've used #UTB in some tweets on this to try to draw the Boro fans' attention to what their owner is doing.

It would be nice if some of the other EFL clubs started saying how ridiculous these two claims are - every dog etc 

I've got zero in my PP account and it's letting me watch Boro v Mansfield already, so hoping that it works for the Rams.

If Rush is part of this deal, there is no way Morris is handing over that stadium with no cash involved.  

Stalker?

So Mick your saying you don’t know that much about her ?

The Southampton figure is also 'only' 80% of the club, the Liebherr family still hold 20%, interestingly the family had a caveat and veto over who Gao Jisheng could sell to, presumably to avoid another Wigan fiasco.
Slight difference, very slight in fact, but my Southampton mate who runs their website and often writes for the Guardian about Saints has said:
The £100m is for Gao Jisheng's 80% (He paid £180m for that, money leveraged from his Chinese companies) the new Serbian owners have also taken on a £90m loan from MSD which was taken out by Gao to cover pandemic costs.
The money is Serbian, but teh driving force is Rasmus Ankersen the former DOF at Brentford.
So as @CBRammettesays it's essentially £200m for 80% of a club.
Makes Derby cheap at half (the speculated) price(s)

selection of btl comments from the BBC and Guardian match reprts, weird seeing some non-hatred of us to be fair:
MIllwall fan:
Respect to all at DCFC (except Mel Morris & cohorts). To have to sell best players, sign no-one, have to cope with 2 sets of points deductions totalling -22 and to lift themselves from Rooney to players to fans to give each game their best shot. Remarkable effort and puts the plastic glory hunter fans who moan their proverbial off when they don’t win every game well and truly in perspective 
Coventry fan:
Anything other than bottom would be a massive achievement for Derby. Dare to dream rams fans......
Wolves fan:
Well done Derby. Low quality game but important points and I hope Derby pull off the miracle. Albion are dire with a one tactic manager and a team lacking any real quality. I think most neutrals would agree with me when I say I hope Albion don’t come back up as they’re just a waste of time in the top league.
Leicester Fan:
Great club with a great history. This LCFC fan would have you back in the prem in a heartbeat. Good luck.

Tell you what if Derby had a out &
out goal scorer, they could pull off the impossible. Have not been outclassed in any game this season & are playing for Wayne Rooney, the supporters & the shirt. All Derby supporters I am sure must be really proud of this team for not giving up.
Stoke
Well Played Derby... From a Stokie
Bournemouth
An AFCB supporter here. I was pleased for all the Derby fans to see you get the three points. We know what is feels like to have points deducted and us the fans not able to do anything about it other than support our team. Hope you make it and stay in the championship. Good luck
