Papahet got a reaction from Inverurie Ram in How It All Went Wrong At Derby County Explained
I'd argue it went wrong when we replaced hardworking, grounded players who gave a poo from the 13/14 season with overrated, overpriced crap who didn't fit into a system we had set upon playing
Add that to the manager merry go rounds, a arrogant chairman who believed he could buy us to glory and stories about Butterfield missus toes, Drones, Thornes continued injury layoffs, selling our star players for peanuts (Hughes, Ince, Vydra...) and replacing them with dogshite and then the whole FFp drama.
It's been a circus since 2014 when DCFC is concerned.

Rochdale and Bury seem pretty decent and sympathetic towards us

Just a suggestion for the EFL rather than keep moving the goalposts, as confirmed by tweets for current dcfc employees, if Gibson does not take up MMs offer what about charging Middlesbrough of bringing the game into disrepute by bringing baseless charges against a league founding member. Either he takes MMs offer up or he is making it up and causing unfounded mental anguish on dcfc staff and fans

We’re on the brink of liquidation, and we’re still a bigger, better club than Palace.

All I would ask is, what can the admins realistically achieve in the next 4 weeks that they have failed to do in the last 4 months?
I think the likely outcome from this sorry affair is liquidation of Derby County as we know it and we start again in league 2.
There are too many things that need to fall into place and 3 bidders getting frustrated all for different issues.

Don't want to lose festy. If we went down he would steam roller league one. He is destined to be a top player and it is about time we benefitted on one of our young stars.

3 things I've learnt from being in administration - I don't like Newcastle Fans, I really don't like Middleborough supporters and where Wycombe is in the UK.

This week is absolutely massive for the club, 3 interested parties, 2 of which not willing to take on the liabilities with the 2 leeching clubs...
This week really is where the administrators earn their fee.

Papahet reacted to Ram a lamb a ding dong in The Administration Thread
Tbf isn't everyone overreacting? We have 1 registered bid, hopefully with another 1 or 2 in the next few days. Admin will then determine best in terms ability to pay creditors. Beanies are proposing Mel keeping ground (at the mo) and deal with spurious claims at a later date.
Can't see why everyone so twitchy

Papahet reacted to Ambitious in The Administration Thread
The absolute clown show that is the EFL would be at its absolute peak if they allowed us to liquidate and then start again in League Two. Talk about wanting their cake and eating it too.
I would hazard a guess that Derby County have been on TV significantly more so than any other team in the Championship this year? It seems like we've been on TV for roughly a third of our games. We are a cash cow to them and they're willing to throw their entire league structure so that they can guarantee we would be a league club and they can continue to milk us?
It's obviously good for us, honestly if it's a case of League One with a ton of debt and potential point deductions in the future due to the administration process or liquidation and a start again in League Two with a clean slate then obviously the latter makes a ton more sense. I just find it laughable how badly they're trying to screw us, now they're worried we could go bust they're wanting to protect their own investment. Rancid.

Papahet reacted to uttoxram75 in Steve Gibson trying to liquidate Derby
If we go out of business it will be because of a dick-swinging competition between two multi-millionaires enabled by a clueless and cowardly fellow multi-millionaire who had the power to stop it.
Morris, Gibson and Parry - see you next Tuesdays of the highest order.?

Papahet reacted to ITSD in Steve Gibson trying to liquidate Derby
It's interesting reading the Boro thread from the final day of the 18-19 season. https://www.oneboro.co.uk/forum/topic/8276-boro-v-rotherham-a-1-2-assombalonga-mikel/page/19/#comments
I think throughout the whole thing there's one mention of our alleged 'cheating' and endless discussion of how rubbish Boro were that season. Apparently they even took inflatable dinosaurs to the game in a protest against Tony Pulis' prehistoric football.
Surely, if our 'cheating' was so instrumental in determining the final league standings, Boro fans would have discussed it to death at that time. Surely, their fans wouldn't be saying how rubbish Boro were.
Some highlights:
AdamBoro: "Boro dont deserve playoffs, and if they did make it would no chance get promotion." [Pg10] Dan1234: "Let's be honest, who on earth wanted to sit through a season in the prem under Pulis." [Pg11] Jimmy: "Ah well that was 45 mins of fun anyway. Now get rid of Pulis at 5pm. Failure to get top six is a massive underachievement no matter ‘how much he’s done behind the scenes’." [Pg11] Hanzino: "Hahahaha, get in. Did not want to see us get smashed in the playoffs anyway, get this idiotic dinosaur out the club right now" [Pg11] Pikerman: "Taxi for Mr Pulis all the way back to Dorset please and definitely one way. Who can honestly say we deserve a top six place after losing six on the trot" [Pg11] Jamie-H: "Hope we kept the receipts for all those overhauls and renovations he did in January hopefully they're still in warranty. When he walks away the excuses and tales we'll hear about how he was so unlucky and how he never could get a striker in that he wanted. There's bright spots for next season Britt and Fletcher look good McNair's been decent the past few games and we have Wing/Tav who could really breakout next season." [Pg12] Borodane: "It’s more or less the only way you can tell the club what you feel. They won’t be looking at message boards and they won’t be asking fans. They certainly won’t be paying attention to letters like the one Will wrote. The only way you can show the club that you aren’t happy is by protesting in numbers at a match or outside the ground. As paying costumers we have the right to criticize the product." [Pg14] BegStealOrBoro: "Except they haven’t. They are really struggling to sell anywhere near the amount they did before this season. Either way the argument is getting a little dull. Pulis finished 7th with one of the most expensive squads in the league. He has alienated large amounts of the fan base while not delivering the results he needed. It’s Gibson’s call on whether to keep him, but I cannot see how anyone can view the season as a success - and because of that I do not understand any desire to keep him. It’s not like we have been playing better and better through the season." [Pg14] Rioch's Braves: "I wish to *** Frank Lampard was our manager set his side out to play good entertaining football and regardless of the play offs what a superb 1st season for him. Football wins today for me. Times up Pulis you have FAILED with your dated boring lifeless poor excuse for football." [Pg15] Ash: "Desperately need to invest in new players and a new manager next season. The truth is, we were never good enough to go up and didn't deserve to." [Pg15] JamesP: "Would have been so undeserved if we had finished sixth, and Pulis would have embarrassed us again. Worst season in memory. Please get rid" [Pg15] Duvel: "This hasn't been the lowest finishing position I've seen but it's by far and away been the worst football I've ever seen as a Boro fan. Even in season's where we've been relegated I've seen some flair players or the occasional game which was enjoyable, this has just been dire to watch. I'll be glad if Pulis goes but I've got no faith in Gibson anymore to make the right changes, the final straw for me was Gibson putting up prices after the season we've just watched. It's clear that they see us as customers now rather than supporters, well if you want to treat me like a customer then you need to provide a product. Until then I won't be back at the ground." [Pg17] Rioch's Braves: "Never thought I'd be saying this but if Gibson hasn't got the vision, ambition and direction to take this club forward then though his been a brilliant chairman/owner perhaps its time to hand over the reigns to someone else. I have felt for a long time that its not just a case of Gibson making poor decisions but that he really has ran out of ideas and that's t a sad time. I would love Steve to prove me wrong but I can't see it happening, we are a club going backwards." [Pg18]

Papahet reacted to papa_lazarou in Steve Gibson trying to liquidate Derby
Not posted in a while.... The stress is killing me.....
I'm sure some have you have stumbled across the amusing reading I found and attach below.
Boro fans wanting our demise might want to be careful what they wish for. SG is far from the clean cut business man they believe he is....
Boro apparently £35m in debt for this season alone ???. Only allowed £39m over 3seasons. Pot kettle springs to mind.... and the bit of extra reading I've done tonight was that Gibson sold the club's debt to his own haulage company to get around FFP which the EFL have now closed the loophole on..... What an absolute twonk!
So by his logic any club Boro beat (unfair advantage due to over spending) this season could sue due to cheating...and if they get into the playoffs or promoted the same would apply.

I'll go back to my dark room and crack the single malt open again to try and forget this never ending nightmare.
UTR!

Papahet reacted to Cook1988 in CALLING MEL MORRIS
Any can they get a message to mel Morris,
Pay up for your mistakes, you caused all this not the fans
Us Derby fans follow Derby through and through, we live for Derby County
He is wealthy and surely he can pay 50 mill if it saves us
According to the Sunday Times Rich List 2020, Morris is said to have amassed a fortune of £515m, making him the joint 268th richest person in the UK, and the joint 11th richest in the East Midlands.
Alot of people's mental heath will be at risk, mine certainly will be
