    More than anything, though, it is the spoiled and self-entitled response of a club whose owner has a history of this. It is only three years since Olympiakos, also owned by Evangelos Marinakis, criticised the “darkest days of Greek refereeing ever”. A specific target of that criticism was the president of the “central refereeing committee”, who Olympiakos said they were withdrawing “confidence” in. The individual? Mark Clattenburg, who by 2024 Marinakis had enough confidence in to employ as Forest refereeing consultant.

    It'd be grand if it could be Derby lads (or lasses) retaining full ownership. I think part of football losing its way has been as a result of too many owners who treat clubs like toys for the billionaire boys club. Lose interest and your club that's been around over 100 years is all of a sudden teetering on the edge.
    I see Gadsby and even more so, our own David Clowes, as custodian types, as much as owners. Clowes' prime interest was and I think will likely always remain, the longevity and sustainability of the Derby County Football Club. In all honesty, I'm fine with that, though I suspect many won't be.
    @Boycie has reminded us that Morris was popular and regarded as 'one of our own' prior to dumping us into admin and he's right. I was very much taken in myself. That said, I can't see any similarities other than their Rams ownership at all. The two men are worlds apart in everything from actions to demeanour. I think it's already safe to assume that Clowes is the owner we needed, arriving precisely when we most needed him to.

    If I worked at Forest I’d be up, showered, dressed and out the door already. The office is going to provide unrivalled drama. One of those where you stare at your screen, pretending you’re not listening, but loving every minute of the sideshow

    I remember when everyone chanted that MM was one of our own.
    But, Mr Clowes deserves his own credit too, invested in Derby when it wasn’t looking a good investment return to the premier league like MM did.
    Well done David.

    Boycie reacted to sage in How is that offside?   
    Once you do a VAR check, it's either offside or it's not. If you allow a 1 inch buffer then what if someone is 2 inches off? It's a mathematical measurement.

    If you use technology then you have to accept the gnats knacker decisions.

    Offside is offside.
    It doesn’t matter how you draw it up, whether daylight between attacker and defender or not, it is simply on or off.
    It’s incredibly harsh but get rid of VAR and you end up with Coventry in the final via an offside goal.
    We either accept humans (officials) make errors (something that managers, pundits, fans etc. can’t seem to do) or we use technology.
    Many prefer the days of none VAR. but I also remember in the days of no VAR teams like Man Utd would bully referees and you’d never get a decision at Old Trafford.

    I really hope that we get promoted on Saturday but I’m not sure that I want to ever go back to the premier league. Never being able to properly celebrate a goal until all checks are complete is not what football is about (for me, anyway).
