    As much as I'd like him to sign a new contract with us, I doubt that will happen and he'll become a free agent at the end of his present contract.
    The best we can probably hope for is that he has a good world cup and we get some money for him in the January transfer window.

    Dane Scarlett from Tottenham on loan. Highly rated and Conte wants him to go to a league one club. Who better to develop a young striker than Rooney.

    With us being under restrictions (EFL business plan etc),  that's the sort of imaginative thinking we need. A former Man United legend helping to guide the son of a former Derby player. One of the few bright spots to emerge from the last two seasons is that young players may get thrown in the deep end, but they also get  plenty of support from the manager/coaching staff.

    Random one, but wouldn't be surprised to see us get Charlie Savage for the season.

    Colleen saved him. From an early age is was a proper scallywag and could quite easily have ended up with a life on the wrong side of the law, but she was there to steady him.
    Even through his many indiscretions as a footballer she didn’t desert him. Without her forgiveness and guidance he could well have gone the way of Best and Gazza.

    Well worth watching, makes you realise how he manages to get 100% out of the players,
    his determination and will to succeed is infectious.
    We are going for promotion next season, either from league 1 or the Championship!

    Same page as you.
    However, if the manager only gets to know by text, rather than a reasoned discussion and agreement, it’s bad form by those suits running the club right now.

    I think he's one of our most creative and talented players then just needs to be more consistent. He has had moments where he rips teams apart and then others when he goes missing. He certainly is a useful asset and very much needed given our sqaud depth.

    I like Roos. You wouldn’t expect Tom Lawrence to perform like KDB so you can’t expect Roos to perform like Ederson 
    When I see the keepers we play against, I actually think Roos is above average for this league. 
     
    Didn’t realise he was out of contract in the summer- like so many

    Norwich, Fulham and Bournemouth are interested, but noooooo our fans say he's rubbish. Almost as though he's a good goalkeeper... but our fans aren't willing to admit they're wrong.

    As a preferred creditor they are entitled to more than normal creditors.
    Generally in football admins 25% is the usual payout so theoretically we could offer HMRC 26% and we are still within the rules as "Preferring" them

    Quick update: I have just left the meeting which is still ongoing otherwise I would miss the last train.
    A decision was made not to release minutes for this meeting in the end, but I am free to get a write up out to you all as soon as I can. 
    I do not have a laptop with me and would prefer to wait until tomorrow once I’m home and can go through all the notes.
    I will aim to have it ready to post on the forum tomorrow.
    Please do not bombard me with questions across the forum by mentioning me, PM, DM or text if you have my number.
    I don’t want to be putting bits and pieces out there all over the place.

    Dale The Ram reacted to Andrew3000 in Super- fan Chan-young Lee   
    Just wanted to celebrate this kid who has introduced himself in the  rams around the world section of this forum. Many will know of his super-quick goal clips provided on Twitter, this South Korean lad appeared recently on Rams Review Podcast (where he politely tolerated being called Lee the whole time, which is his surname/family name)
    Somewhat bizzarely, he became a passionate Ram since the play-off final against QPR (must be drawn towards injustice and tragedy) and gets up at 3 or 4am to watch matches.
    He also writes pieces promoting our club in South Korea.  I'm not on Twitter but I'm sure many have welcomed him already. Hopefully we can reach out and help him visit Pride Park one day. I think he will feature more on ramsreview pod so a relationship is developing there.  Hope the club are aware too and might assist.

    Dale The Ram reacted to Leicester Ram in Keogh Sacked   
    I'm not reading through 51 pages of this so I know what I'm going to say has hopefully already been said.
    People who see Richard Keogh as the victim here are wrong, Derby County are the victim.
    I'll preface this by saying I think all three should have been sacked. I would rather that have happened but I think Keogh is fully deserving of the sack.
    Keogh's 33 years old, I've worked with/been responsible for young people in a professional capacity who have the same age gap between me and them as Keogh did to Bennett/Lawrence. He should have known better.
    He got into Lawrence's car inebriated, knowing full well Lawrence was well over the limit and then didn't even put his ducking seatbelt on. The club captain. "Mr Derby County".
    By doing that he's pretty much ended his career,  he can't perform his job and he should consider himself lucky to be alive.
    Derby are right to sack him. I just don't have any sympathy for him. I think they were generous to offer him a chance to stay on a reduced contract.
    Just because he wasn't driving doesn't mean he's the victim in any way. He's dug his own grave by getting in that car let alone not putting on a seatbelt. It's not a situation where you can say 'well if Lawrence wasn't driving drunk Keogh would never have got injured!'. Keogh could have still got himself a taxi, the bloke can't drive, I'm sure he knows the number for a taxi company.
    He's damaged the club in a way the other two simply haven't. He's completely eradicated himself as an asset to his employers through his own irresponsible actions.
    I'd rather we'd have let Lawrence and Bennett go as well but if you see it from the clubs perspective, while their actions were equally as irresponsible they didn't go as far as to injure themselves. I don't know if they were wearing seatbelts or not but they can still do their job. The fact they were driving doesn't make them more responsible than Keogh.
    It's upsetting because Keogh was easily my favourite Derby player of all time. Shame he's been such an absolute clown.
