Generally, I don’t mind the “We’re having a party when Derby County die” chant - but these lot singing it… Let me summarise my opinions:
 
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHHA!
These lot are up poops creek with their current owners, ground full of asbestos, in big debts, etc.
I would have sympathy but they’ve shown today what they’re truly like.
Just find it funny how they found our situation something to laugh at, when in a year or two time they’ll be in the same situation.
 

I'm not sure why anyone would be surprised at the brum fans today. Always been the same. Yes all teams have some nutters but generally, most tend to only target like minded fans.
Brum, Millwall, Leeds and Stoke to name a few, have a long history of attacking ordinary fans and families.
Massive bankers, always have been, always will be.

Is there a collection bin? Happy to throw a note or two in to help cover costs of any flags, parking, club donation or towards the incoming forest fine. If not I'll spend it in the shop and tell them to put the item back on the shelf if that money goes directly to the club.

I’ll be marching with this flag. Give us a shout if you see it ??
 

This is inspiring.
 

Got a season ticket in South Stand but bought one in North Stand for Sunday
(asking about if anyone wants it )LOL

Come on if anyone is two minds please buy a ticket for Sunday the club needs you !

Are they bringing their flag, that’ll be a big plus 

Of course, this is today now.

? Oh good. What use is that?

You’ve got more chance of getting a reply from Orson......personally I’d prefer Larson.?

Currently talking with various members and fan groups privately to compile key points that can be pinned on the forum to be shared with the media and MP's.  

Three parties have made offers, any one of which would allow the club to exit administration with a substantial payment to creditors.
These offers need clarity, that the claim by Boro and the potential claim by Wycombe do not qualify as Football Creditors.
The football creditor rule is not defined in the EFL regulations, it is part of the Articles of Association of the Football League Limited, of which all clubs are minority shareholders (the golden share).
The football creditor rule is in Article 48, which clearly defines what constitutes a football creditor, copied below from Companies House.
The rule clearly states that it is to cover payments of "debts due". How possibly, can an unproven, unquantified claim such as Boro's be consider a debt due?
If the EFL is suggesting that any claim by a football club or employee, which is unproven, should be classified as a football creditor it would create mayhem. And, bona fide football creditors with debts due, and other preferential and unsecured creditors would lose out as a result.
The EFL can't have this both ways. If they choose to say Article 48 does not qualify Boro's claim as a football creditor the EFL are suggesting they might be sued by Boro.
However, if they choose to say that Article 48 should be interpreted (which is a wild stretch) in a way that Boro should be classed as a football creditor then it is almost certain that the EFL would be sued by the Administrators and the creditors including genuine football creditors, and HMRC for their easily quantified losses. 
The EFL also risk being sued under section 994 of the companies act for acting prejudicially against the interests of a minority shareholder of the football league ie. DCFC.
We need to apply pressure on the EFL to get off the fence, see that their actions alone are preventing the Administrators from getting a deal agreed. 
Article 48 says that Boro's claim cannot be a football creditor and the EFL must state that and stop this nonesense.
"48         FOOTBALL CREDITORS

according to the date and time of registration."

This needs supporting by as many people as possible. 
Also, why not encourage as many people and businesses as possible to put scarves/flags/shirts in their windows? We need to be visual too, show that the support isn't just online.

It's only an hour and twenty mins on the train from Bradford, I'm in if I can get off work.

I will go to Preston 

I'm up for a trip to Preston.

I`ll come

I meant I`ll come to Preston Lol

I meant I`ll come to Preston Lol

Who's available for a weekday meet at the EFL office in Preston. Pointless doing it on a weekend when there's no one there.
I'll take a days annual leave to go. Can we get enough to go to make it worthwhile and newsworthy?
 

I've found a crowd funding page which aims to raise 500k for the club. I hope it is legit.
 

Could Crowdfunding be arranged for an appeal for DCFC,I would certainly contribute and I am sure there would be thousands raised.
