    Mick Harford reacted to Sparkle in Who will be our first signing?   
    To be honest so would I - I would have liked Jagielka as well

    The most important player we could have signed is Curtis Davies. If that's done, any others are just a bonus. Would rather play Sibley and Watson than Morrison and Carroll.

    Utterly pointless exercise - he wants to sell - someone needs to actually buy ( and hopefully it’s an improvement) 
    support the lads wearing the Derby county Shirts

    Mick Harford got a reaction from Animal is a Ram in The latest from the club via Chris Coles   
    Found the RD interview pretty interesting, more because of what was not said than what was said.
    My take on it, my thoughts after I've looked at what is in the public domain.
    I posted a while back about what I'd heard re: an American consortium taking over, I have heard nothing to suggest that this is no longer the case.
    I've experience of dealing with due diligence for American companies, and boy do they love an NDA personally I've signed around a dozen, and what Mel couldn't talk of last night leads me (hopes) to believe that the silence through official channels is as a result of an NDA between Mel/DCFC and the consortium. The NDA between the club and bidders will also be separate and differ to the one between Mel and the fans groups last night.
    I understand that a  lot of us are upset/frustrated/disappointed/angry and it's only human nature to want to point the finger and find someone to blame, but I'm hoping that it's more a question of cannot rather than will not when it comes to the lack of direct engagement with the fanbase.
    I'd also suggest that the consortium are waiting for the accounts and actual level of debt to be finalised before moving forward, as I understand the accounts have to be submitted at latest in 13 days, so I reckon that it's more end of month/transfer window rather than start of season before we see proper movement.
    I know we all want answers ASAP, but it might just be a question of wait out on this and when there is news then there is news.
    I'd also ask that we remember what we have in common, that we are all Derby and want the best for the club, my view is that sniping at each other, different groups, posters and dismissing with terms such as wrist slashers or happy clappers does nothing good bar possibly making you feel better for a few second., Whilst people may have a different view debate is good, sarcasm, anger abuse in my view is not. I feel the club, with the dire straights we are in, need the fanbase to step up show why we are amongst the best in the country and support the club, manager and players during what is going to be a testing season.
    Jesus, I've rambled a lot for a post that is just my opinion and not fact. Sorry.

The NDA between the club and bidders will also be separate and differ to the one between Mel and the fans groups last night.
    I understand that a  lot of us are upset/frustrated/disappointed/angry and it's only human nature to want to point the finger and find someone to blame, but I'm hoping that it's more a question of cannot rather than will not when it comes to the lack of direct engagement with the fanbase.
    I'd also suggest that the consortium are waiting for the accounts and actual level of debt to be finalised before moving forward, as I understand the accounts have to be submitted at latest in 13 days, so I reckon that it's more end of month/transfer window rather than start of season before we see proper movement.
    I know we all want answers ASAP, but it might just be a question of wait out on this and when there is news then there is news.
    I'd also ask that we remember what we have in common, that we are all Derby and want the best for the club, my view is that sniping at each other, different groups, posters and dismissing with terms such as wrist slashers or happy clappers does nothing good bar possibly making you feel better for a few second., Whilst people may have a different view debate is good, sarcasm, anger abuse in my view is not. I feel the club, with the dire straights we are in, need the fanbase to step up show why we are amongst the best in the country and support the club, manager and players during what is going to be a testing season.
    Jesus, I've rambled a lot for a post that is just my opinion and not fact. Sorry.

    Mick Harford got a reaction from Dimmu in The latest from the club via Chris Coles   
    Found the RD interview pretty interesting, more because of what was not said than what was said.
    My take on it, my thoughts after I've looked at what is in the public domain.
    I posted a while back about what I'd heard re: an American consortium taking over, I have heard nothing to suggest that this is no longer the case.
    I've experience of dealing with due diligence for American companies, and boy do they love an NDA personally I've signed around a dozen, and what Mel couldn't talk of last night leads me (hopes) to believe that the silence through official channels is as a result of an NDA between Mel/DCFC and the consortium.

    Mick Harford reacted to angieram in v Huddersfield (H) Match Thread   
    Totally agree with this.
    Those supporters saying it will turn toxic are just stoking the fires by putting the idea into gullible fans heads that it ought to turn toxic, imo.
    That is not going to impress any prospective purchasers (of whom we now appear to have three, that's three more than we thought we had yesterday!)
    The idea that players can differentiate between criticism of the club and criticism of them is a non-starter.
    I want to see how our young team will fare against Huddersfield,  who aren't full of confidence themselves, tbf.
    We have enough flair to win this one if we can harness it correctly. Getting behind the lads will surely help.
