    I believe that our younger players far from being demoralised have been lifted, motivated and enthused by the experience of playing the major part in beating all of the arm chair critics, doom merchants on twatter, media experts, and bookmakers , by coming back from losing 3 times during the match to win against a very physical bunch of cheating aoles and showing a will to win, their superior skill, and a determination to prove their manager was correct in showing his faith in playing them.
    I think you owe Rooney an apology.

    As he is worth £100 million I doubt that the £90k a week is the main decision driver, which in my opinion is the need to be successful as he was as a player. For a lot of driven people it is not about the pay cheque, that is one of the reasons why they are successful.

    Rooney has had multiple interviews now, where he has been asked the question about walking away. He consistently says no. We have been crying out for stability and loyalty from a manager since Nigel Clough. He arguably has the toughest job of any manager for as long as I can remember supporting Derby (22 years) and despite having a bare minimum squad and having all the problems above him, he continues to show that he cares and wants to do well. 
    We are starting to see a style of play which is exciting and attacking with the handful players he has. 
    I think it's about time everyone starts to show respect to him instead of wanting him out. Any other manger would have left us in this mess. 
     
    He's sticking with us, we need to stick with him !!

    No chance of Rooney being sacked or walking this season. When the going gets tough, Wayne gets tougher. He is utterly determined to succeed at Derby and I think that he will.

    Investors are not purchasers, for your further information they are investors, also any SPA would have a clause that the club was debt free at the point of signing that SPA.
    Selling the club does not circumvent FFP, in fact if it was sold debt free that would render FFP non applicable.
    Your faux outrage at everything to do with the club is very boring.

    I highly doubt that, agreeing to talk to a middleman who comes to you wth a potential buyer is not really the same as saying "find me a buyer"
    but with Mel wanting to sell up / at least have some of the burden shared being well known around the industry presumably even longer than around the forums any and every middle man will be going "oh yeah, you can buy Derby, i'll get you a meeting with Mel" and Mel is probably not going to be going "no interest unless the buyer is a shining beacon of virtue who is highly regarded by business and the public alike"

    Loans from Mel, who offers to write them off as part of the deal.
    You're not very good at properly understanding financial matters are you?

    Only listened to end of part one but I don't see anything hugely wrong here.
    Presume you're talking about the way Morris agrees to write off money to benefit Derby. I would say that should be applauded rather than pilloried.  Also goes to fill I  some of the blanks from what came out of the supporter meeting. Effectively that would need to be agreed and ratified by the EFL in order for it to go ahead but in reality it isn't illegal and isn't against the rules really.
    The fact that they met someone who appears to be less than legit is also no real surprise. The meeting was set up by a known fixer and would appear to have not gone further than an initial meeting.
    It's like selling your house...do you ask to see all the details, background, CRB checks of everyone that comes to look around?
    Absolute none story.
