TheresOnlyWanChope got a reaction from Kathcairns in The Administration Thread
Most fans of other clubs I have spoken to (even Forest) have been sympathetic and understand how disgustingly the fans of DCFC have been treated. Some also agree the EFL have been awful with us- eg accountancy experts agreeing with Derby’s view on the amortisation plus EFL failure to stop Gibson. I don’t know about other teams boards but they often attract people who don’t know the facts.
That Bristol guy may have specific problems so maybe it’s best not to mention him. Anyone joining multiple fans forums with this weird agenda shouldn’t be thought of as coherent.

He's very frustrated as someone has produced this
I assume it's being ironic, but they are taking it very seriously.

Derby County. Saved.
The joy, the relief.
Mine won’t be the only story like this, but after the passing of my Dad, who was a dyed-in-the-wool Ram, former steward home and away, the love for Derby County takes on another meaning. It’s a link to family - past and present - for so many, and to lose it would be heartbreaking all over again.
To see it saved means the world. And I’m celebrating with a Derbyshire whisky.
I was listening to the 'emergency' Sportscene. I shed a tear when Ed Dawes came on in tears. I fully lost it when the Punjabi Rams representative (who's name escapes me, my apologies) was talking about the laying to rest of another member (again apologies) whose proceedings mirrored my Dad's. I'm in tears again, typing this.
I really hope we as Rams never have to go through this again. I hope no fan ever has to go through this.
We have our club back. Don't EVER take it for granted.
Much love to one and all. My only regret is that I wasn't first to break the news ? I'd just got home from work, but seriously, this forum has been a haven - to know I'm not the only one who's life has been dominated by this one subject.
I can't wait for that 30th July vs. Oxford. Win, lose, or draw - it's going to be one hell of a party. Let's sell this mother out.
Peace ✌️ love ❤️ and Derby County ?

So...
I went to the shop shortly after the announcement to grab some 'celebration juice' for tonight and met a guy in a Derby shirt holding a 4 pack of Bud and asked him if he was celebrating as well.
'Celebrating what?'
'Takeovers done mate'
'Seriously?'
'Yeah, just been announced'
He then puts the 4 cans back on the shelf and picks up a box of 24 ?
If you're on the forum mate, have a great evening!!!

Did Amanda Solloway just break the news first? All I can see in my head now is her pole dancing around the corner flag.

TheresOnlyWanChope got a reaction from Kathcairns in Rooney leaves
The guy will handle management long term. He was facing another stint of losing players and managing with one hand behind his back. Nothing but respect for Rooney. Last 18 months he’s had way too much to deal with compared to other managers.

TheresOnlyWanChope got a reaction from angieram in Rooney leaves
Rooney couldn't prepare for the season. Cant blame the guy at all. He needs to be signing players not losing more. I think the timing probably makes sense. He may have waited long enough to see if there would be a takeover which would allow for signings and its obviously not moving fast enough. The Kirchener deal falling through maybe dealt the final blow. Disappointing to lose Rooney, he's done well to galvanise the team and work with what he had.

TheresOnlyWanChope got a reaction from Rammy03 in The Administration Thread
Need a striker. Every club that did well last season had a striker on 15 plus goals. I fear if the club loses any more players it will be a season of struggle. I',m not expecting much from next season unless we sign some players including a goalscorer.

TheresOnlyWanChope reacted to CaptainOx in 2022/2023 Fixtures release
As a Derby based Oxford fan - there was of course two fixtures I was particularly looking out for.
And sods law, I'm on holiday for the first game of the season. Gutting.
We haven't played you since April 1994 and therefore have never played at Pride Park, so I'd expect us to bring a decent following, though the early away game followings are always affected by school holidays.
This league is really tough to call this season. Ipswich and Sheff Weds have strengthened really really well. MK, Pompey, Bolton, Wycombe will all go again. I expect all 3 relegated sides to do well when you guys are eventually allowed to sign players. The 'underdog' type status really seemed to work for Rooney's style last season so I would expect it to do so again.
We haven't done anything yet which is a big concern having lost a couple of players and a third expected to join Burnley in the next few days.
