TheresOnlyWanChope got a reaction from angieram in WHY
I think people tend to go for extreme views regarding Mel Morris and his tenure. There have obviously been mistakes made, there seemed to be a lot of meddling, frequent sackings etc which I wasn’t a fan of. Now we have this EFL fiasco, although whoever is in charge of finances, CEO? Or financial director should be scrutinised also. On the other hand, fine margins, had we gone up against Villa or not crumbled in seasons before we could be a Premier League club now. If we had beaten QPR, Morris could have enjoyed the financial clout of Prem football. He backed his managers in transfers too. How many chairman don’t? If recruitment hasn’t been up to scratch, it can’t be all on Morris, has to be recruitment team or managers who need to shoulder the blame also. He’s also invested heavily in the academy, we are producing good young players now, surely more than a decade ago for example.
I can’t agree he’s been a disaster for Derby, neither has his tenure been a resounding success.
Aside from all this, hope his health improves

Any deduction would be a massive blow. If we get fans in, may be able to avoid another relegation scrap though with a few signings

I'd say there is a greater chance of that happening than Derby being in the Premier League for the 22/23 season, sadly. ?

It will be played every year for the trophy that is called the Rooney Cup

There is no one in all likeliness due to our debt but no one sounds better than Alonso.

Quite a frank and open interview here with Jordon Ibe, mental health discussions start around the 20 minute mark.
Hope he's getting the support he needs and that he can continue to work his way towards the team for next season.

Surely no one wants Alonso in charge. This takeover sounds like it would be a disaster.

If you don't want to see us play in the Champions League, that is your choice!

If Alonso doesn't buy the club, that's me done. I'm off to support Forest and Leeds.

Didn’t Saint Simon Jordan say Alonso was a kosher guy??????????

I don’t want this idiot anywhere near this football club.
Pretending a house is yours when it isn’t to counter rumours of not having money is an embarrassment.
I do not want him associated with this club.
