TheresOnlyWanChope got a reaction from Foxy Ram in Suggestions to Save Derby County
I think you’re overstating any feeling against. The benefit to the economy is obvious. I doubt many fans of other teams will be alienated as it’s obviously beneficial to the city to safeguard Derby County and it’s stadium.

I think the council would have majority support from residents in the city. Hooliganism in the 80s shouldn’t be a factor in this. The council should absolutely explore the option of acquiring the stadium from MM. The loss of DcFC to the city would be disastrous financially, culturally, emotionally. I would argue the council spending money to acquire PP with the obvious economic benefits in future years would be ALOT more popular in Derby than the Arena/Velodrome construction.

A lot of people don’t care about lots of things the council spends money on... taxpayers paid a lot of money for a velodrome/ arena which has been divisive....
You will never get a plan that will please everyone. The majority of city residents I’m sure understand the importance of the football club

Hasn’t millions of taxpayers money been spent on the velodrome? Think there would be more support to save the local football club.

Residents of Derby have had little say when they built the velodrome at almost £30mil.

Derby County is too important to local economy and has massive cultural significance to the area. Similar to Rolls Royce, it’s a big name in the area. Probably not a big employer (I guess more medium scale) but the revenue created must be significant. Council spends money on things all the time and every big outlay will upset some people who don’t appreciate investment in the arts (questionable whether the council has been investing properly in arts but that’s beside the point) or sport or whatever.

What fans don’t want this?

I’m not sure that’s true, most people in Derby/Derbyshire will realise the benefit to the county in keeping the football club going, and securing the stadium so it can’t be used like this again.
It would be more benefit than building a velodrome, how much did that cost?

It’s this tactical by Ashley to force pressure on Morris?

TheresOnlyWanChope got a reaction from RAM1966 in The Administration Thread
Disappointed with the tone of Q statement with threats about fan demonstrations. Will it impact potential bidders? Doesn’t seem like there are any, Derby fans have been patient. Feels like fans have been let down by Morris, EFL, Quantuma, Gibson etc. Quantuma should not be making promises ‘imminently etc’ Morris has pretty much made the club unsellable. Good case that EFL should not have docked Derby the 9 points. Definitely seemed to have been a vendetta against Morris/ DCFC.
Feels like everything has come at the worst time- COVID HMRC bills, Morris has made mistake after mistake. Crazy really. Sounds very bleak

What I take from that statement
1) telling Ashley to stop stirring the pot very much a directed at him
2) no idea who the PB is
3) no bids satisfy creditors
4) don’t criticise us or we’ll sue you
5) basically everyone else means more then us fans
