    Yeah, and I think they'll release their bits tonight as will others I guess.
    Unfortunately David is going to get the wrath of some of our worst fans for the crime of wanting to go home and go to bed before reporting back on what was said.
    Pure brainlessness

    Easy tiger, it's not that kind of meeting!!! ??

    Agreed. 
     
    Even if the best those attending can say is “I can’t share any of the details but I feel more positive now than before the meeting” we’d all surely have to feel a lot better even if still frustrated.

    Looks like the club have to have these meetings as it’s EFL rules. 
     
    I take your points though.

    I think that will be the most important element - if those who attend can give general overviews about information, even if we can’t know all of the details.
    I’m not one of those who needs all of the nitty, gritty details. I’m happy enough to be given an overview from unbiased sources that help me to understand what’s going on and whether I should be worried. After all of the silence, along with worrying developments in the media, it will be good to get some clarity from those who attend.

    I hadn’t seen this topic prior to writing a lengthy post. Yes I questioned it, and was given assurances this was not to gag us. Please don’t jump to the worst conclusion.

    r4derby reacted to Day in Supporters Charter Meeting Questions   
    Ok, submissions and voting is over, below is the order of questions to try and put forward to the club.
    I say try, as I must stress again, there is no guarantees over how many I will personally be able to ask.
    That’s not because we’re yes men, brown nosers who will be sat around laughing and joking which I’ve seen accusations of on other social media platforms.
    I always knew the supporters charter meetings would draw criticism, but we have just a couple of hours with the club with several fan groups, all with a list of their own questions which they are looking to raise.
    Some of which will quite possibly turn into lengthy discussions/answers given the current situation. 
    I know we have a lot of fans that appreciate what we do, and I thank you. Tomorrow I will leave my house around 1pm and not be home until gone midnight, trains, taxis, £50 odd at my own cost, more than the price of a Huddersfield match ticket some of you are moaning about, to take questions that you all were given an opportunity to submit and vote on.
    These are not questions I have come up with by myself, but that we have all contributed to.
    I will do my best to represent you, and if my best isn’t good enough then I can only apologise. All I ask is be respectful.
    Finally please be aware that there is an agreement in place that the meeting will not be discussed until the minutes have been released to us all to share within our groups and on the club website.
    This is in my view the most important meeting since the formation of the Supporters Charter, with widespread frustration and anger at the lack of communication, it’s imperative we get the information out there to you all asap 
    Questions
    David: Mel, how are you and how is your health? (81 votes)
    Rev: Can you give a cast iron guarantee you'll continue to fund the club with the minimum amount needed to ensure survival as a club, until any takeover how ever long that will be? (38 votes)
    G Star: It would appear that insufficient due diligence was carried out on the prospective sales to BZI and Erik Alonso.
    Who carried out due diligence and what measures have been put in place to ensure that we are not sold to such an unprofessional outfit? (38 votes)
    Tombo: Supporters are aware that the club is very much up for sale, but what is the plan for the next few years should a takeover not come to fruition? (37 votes)
    I-Ram: Upon completing the sale of the club, will it once again have a stadium that it owns? (28 votes)
    Ambitious: I think we need to get answers to every point on this, including the details behind each one. Why are we the only club in the entire football league default in payments to the HMRC. Do regulation 16.2, 16.3 and P&S non-submission of audited accounts really relate to purely amortisation or is there more to it? (27 votes)

    Ellafella: The name of Derby County has been radically sullied in the press of late, some of it very unfair. Does the Club have a communications strategy to set the record straight over some of the issues eg how we cheated relegation? How we fixed our accounts? How we sold the ground to ourselves? What we value as a Club eg fairness, community spirited, ambitious. (27 votes)
    Anag Ram: What can we, the fans, do to help at this difficult time? (27 votes)
    Carl Sagan: Derby County Football Club belongs to you, but also to the people of the city and the community of fans around the world. And many are very worried for the club's future. What are your plans for the club if the worst happens and you cannot find someone to buy it off you? (22 votes)
    California Ram: Have you considered selling a small shareholding of the club to fans to bring in immediate capital while continuing to make the club attractive to majority ownership buyers. (19 votes)

    Yeah. I agree there were bigger names for us that aren’t on there. But the fact that Rooney is a massive name in world football, and he both played for and manages us means it makes sense to have him as the current face of the team.

    Lots of people on Twitter losing their minds..:nothing new there then.
    Its a young team, with all of them currently under contract at our club. It’s a preseason friendly. That’s ok!
    Good to see how some of these young lads do, with a couple of older heads to see them through.

    horizon is in the top 3 games I’ve ever played and managed to get it for free thanks to your heads up. Currently on 75 hours and over 90% completed.
    can’t wait for the second one.

    Born in Bromley, Kent and then lived in Bedford (rugby town) until adulthood. All of my mates supported big teams, as Bedford has no decent football teams locally (Luton at a push…)
    Dad born and bred Derby, and his family, so it was a case of glory support like my mates, go local to my birth (Crystal Palace) or support the Rams. And you know what, in my 30+ years of watching football, I’ve never once regretted choosing Derby.

    r4derby reacted to Nuwtfly in Wayne Rooney   
    Interesting to see a decent number of you say that you don't really have a problem with the manager of your club getting pi55ed up to the point where he falls asleep in the hotel room of a group of young woman (and gets subsequently snapped doing so) just a few hours after saying he was looking to bring some "dignity and pride" back to the club.
    I was expecting more to have a problem with it considering our recent history with staff members getting drunk. 
    Is it now a problem for Wayne and Coleen? Yes, but let's not pretend this isn't a problem for us, too.
    Once again we are having our name dragged through the mud. When is this going to stop happening?
    Does he deserve to get the boot for this? Probably not. He deserves to get the boot for nearly getting us relegated to League One (thanks again, Marlon Pack). But it certainly isn't going to win him any supporters, in my view.
