    Maybe we can give him first team experience so he can earn a move back to Palace?

    If he wants out let him go. If he thinks he's too good for us then see you later.
    My only interest is in players that actually want to be here.

    You could not make this up. The club that is now funded by a murderous regime says of Mike Ashley :
    “his cloud continues to hang over our great football club.”

    There are going to be a lot of clubs in trouble next season, the same fans that are jumping for joy at our predicament will be the same ones throwing a hissy fit toward  other fans laughing at their club when it happens to them. 
    Birmingham is a prime example, Bristol are in big trouble, as are Boro 
    chickens are coming home to roost ladies and gents, I hope you had a good laugh at our expense because it’s coming for you to

    Whilst CK is being (unusually!) diplomatic in saying the the EFL have been 'very supportive' so far in the takeover process, the smug blazers should get off their butts pronto, now that DCFC have been relegated, all according to their silent drawn-out plan to appease the parasites and other hypocrites to torture club, manager, players & fans.
    If we are not seeing progress by late April, we should pressure the EFL and Q to get their skates on - because time is now of the essence to Wayne & Co if we are to overcome yet another wrecked pre-season & transfer window.

    Answered my own question . They offered 250k to my knowledge.  He supports that team with a 70 million pound wage bill ,5 players on loan and with 4 players in the squad signed for over 57 million and all this on attendances averaging around 9000. Yep, everyones forgotten FFP breakers Bournemouth.

    We had a great bunch of guys and we came home with the 3 points to make the day that bit sweeter.

    I am getting some bizarre replies from Parry today. Can anyone fathom this:
    ‘If we’d changed the rule to say clubs don’t have to use straight line amortisation I could understand the confusion but nothing has changed.’
    But there wasn’t a rule to say they had to! Surely something has changed - it’s a new rule!

    Every club in the country has used the straight line club apart from one who used the other method that was not outlawed in the rules, that's better P rick Parry.

    That's the same Derby with a £16m player wage bill, averaging out at £13,400 for 23 first team players. You can take a little bit off that for wages paid to youth players too.
    Versus Reading who 18 months ago had a wage bill of £38.8m...

    So, had another response from the EFL, asked when they would be charging Middlesbrough with bringing the game into disrepute with regard to their unfounded allegations of another member club 'systematically cheating'. 
    The EFL response:-
    Generally speaking, if any Club wishes to bring a matter to the attention of the EFL in relation to any of our regulations then they can do so.
    So it appears that you can do whatever you want as long as another club does not report you?
    I have responded asking why they need someone else to point it out to them, when the statement was released into the public domain.

    Bristol City bastions of the championship trying to offset FFP failure and fast track changes on the grounds that they could have sold 30 million quids worth of players but for covid .  Jog on cheats.
    Under the ownership of billionaire Stephen Lansdown, the West Country club has long been perceived as one of the most financially stable regimes below the Premier League.
    However, Richard Gould, the club's chief executive, described to Telegraph Sport how the Covid-inflicted collapse in transfer values in the second tier has cost the club £30 million alone.
    The executive has now taken the unprecedented step of warning they could be left with no choice but to take a points deduction next season unless the league fast-tracks reform.
    EFL executives are exploring allowances for Covid-losses, but City are among a host of clubs concerned that the increased wiggle room will only cover matchday losses. For most clubs at City's level, a matchday-only saving might allow only around £5m on top of the current £39m upper-loss threshold for losses.

    ... and it may not seem like it but I also think it is useful to have a sensible if slightly tetchy discussion about this. An issue discussed in the closed confines of a partisan message board (yours and ours) will always have a huge element of bias so I am genuinely interested in your take on things even if I don't agree with a lot of what you say. It was always unlikely that folk would roll out the welcome mat but you've popped on here and made your case regardless so fair play for that at least.
    The why's and wherefores of the key issues that we are facing have already been covered by others over the last several pages so I won't go over old ground but if you take anything away from here then understand a few key things. I can't speak for everyone but hopefully this will give you a flavour of some.
    1) We understand completely who put us in administration. There seems to be a misconception amongst Boro fans that Derby fans are somehow living in denial over this. That is simply not the case, we feel badly let down and abandoned to our fate.
    2) Derby fans feel very strongly that the club has accepted its punishment handed out by the relevant authority but that this was incredibly badly and inconsistently handled by the EFL who just seemed to be making it up as they went along and appealing their own panels decisions and that separate legal actions from other clubs just feel like a pile on when the club is on the brink of oblivion. The language from the EFL was very much that this would draw a line under things and that we could hopefully move on and rebuild. You may not see it as you track our results because the patchwork squad has done amazing things in very trying circumstances but our squad has been decimated by embargo, contracts expiring of the majority of our senior pros, and cheap vacuuming up of our the young players that we invested in and have brought through the academy. We have not been able to offer contracts to either senior players nor professional contracts to younger players who have left the club now and will continue to do so. The financial impact of all this is immeasurable and even if we survive will take a long long time to get over. You may feel from afar that we need further punishment, but given what I have just outlined we feel that we have been absolutely hammered.
    3) Gibson is the bogeyman to Derby fans because in one of our darkest hours since I have supported this club that having been thrown under a bus and bleeding to death in the road that it now appears from a Derby perspective that we have someone who has wandered out of the pub opposite and is loitering to see if he can have our wallet because he thinks he's still owed a round (trying to avoid too much emotive language but that's how it feels). An existential threat to our club is completely pre-occupying Derby fans and you cannot be surprised that this is creating resentment as two wealthy men continue their feud but the club that we have supported through thick and thin just seems to be collateral damage in that ongoing battle of wills.
    4) We have a narrow window to try and ensure the survival of this club in its current form not as some phoenix club in god knows what league. It feels that multiple parties don't give a damn about that due to their own agendas are on the brink of ensuring that we are running out of cards to play. In terms of rescuing the club there is precious little to buy apart from a lot of debt and a name so anything that adversely affects the attractiveness of any potential deal if a serious worry. Legal actions on top of punishments handed out by the EFL just feel like the last straw, regardless of when they were originally thought of.
    We know how we got here, all that fans want now is for an opportunity to climb out of this damned hole and rescue this sometimes infuriating and mostly bloody marvellous club of ours. To do that we need the club to get out of the stranglehold of administration and that means somehow clearing the barriers to a sale.

    It means that the EFL would rather give credence to vexatious compensation claims than run the risk of being sued themselves. In so much, they make it abundantly clear that their continued existence matters far more than that of the member clubs they claim to serve.

    Seeing as they broke FFP in 14/15 and took 4 points of Boro, who finished 5 points behind, they clearly robbed them of an automatic promotion place - no claim for compo though . hmmm.
    Turned down bids from us for there two best players as well.  CAN WE SUE.
