Well thing the longer he thinks he can push us around he will but I hate this man for what he has done to our club.

We have to remember that the EFL's conduct in the DCFC disciplinary case has stoked media frenzies and emboldened gobby hypocrites like the Boro and Wycombe chiefs to dip their bread, to make a lot of spurious noise to allege misfortune caused by the 'guilty' party, their aim being to further damage a competitor. 
* Dragging out the proceedings for over a year and a half, allowing a fellow club (Boro) to engage in actions against DCFC whilst the disciplinary case was in progress (thereby extending the torture for a year, though the actions were thrown out)
* Drip-feeding negative updates to the media without consultation with Derby (positing 'alternative' Derby/Wycombe fixture lists for a Championship <> League One swap if a 2020/21 points deduction was applied)
* Stating their 'regret' that their appeal resulted only in a £100,000 fine for DCFC's amortisation technicalities
* Not reprimanding the Wycombe cowboy for publicly accusing DCFC of systematic cheating
Now we're in administration, minus 12 points with the prospect of further penalties, most even-minded people would surmise that Derby had copped their just desserts and a reset had been enforced.

The idea of spending it is probably nicer than the reality of dishing it out!
Would be nice to find out, mind.

All jokes aside id probably keep £5 mil for myself and my family to live comfortably and my kids to live comfortably, the rest I’d give away.
money isn’t everything, i’m not rich but I’m very lucky that I have a roof over my head, food on the table and 3 amazing children that think I’m the best thing in the world. 
 
there’s people in this world that needs that £106 mil a lot more than I do ?
Would still be nice though wouldn’t it? ?

Happy birthday Boycie! ?

This threads over ten pages long, but we’ve had to hide most as they’re telling me to go forth and multiply.
51! 
Only seems like yesterday when I was 50.

Just listened to the interview - thanks @RoyMac5 for the link. 
Have to say it got me a bit emotional which surprised me. Rooney's comments, attitude, support, empathy and God knows how many other superlatives was nothing short of outstanding. 
100% cleared up questions around communication with Mel confirming Mel's ignored him since early August - utterly shameful behaviour. 100% cleared up questions about Mel's total lack of care, simply repeating his cold, insincere radio speech to staff and players whose livelihoods he's put at real risk  100% cleared up the questions of whether he's personally funded some things - he has, so the players and staff have what they need to progress. 100% cleared up questions around what he thought of Mel - and as direct as he still was, he was clearly being diplomatic. 100% cleared up his commitment to this club, the players, the staff and us fans.  We've had other threads opining views on Rooney but in my honest opinion, this bloke is already a legend just for sticking by us and for doing what he's done with the team despite everything going on.  He seriously could afford to walk away, but for the council estate lad who fought for everything he has, he simply won't unlike our esteemed previous owner.  Credit too the players who could so easily capitulate.  And credit tot to LR & Co who resolutely stand by Rooney. 
What I do get out of this, and the Administrator's press conference, is that there is a huge belief in this club, regardless of whether we remain in the Championship, or, more likely L1 and that mid to long term we will come again better, fitter and stronger.  
I have honestly been doom and gloom this past few days, but today, there's a ray of light for me, that those in the wings might, just might genuinely want to see us good, and not simply cash in and see us fade ingloriously away.

Players taking pay cuts.
working people losing their jobs.
fans in distress as they see their club go up in flames.
all the while Mel bails out wiping his arse with £50 notes…
an absolute disgrace, I hope he never gets to step foot in pride park ever again. 
I couldn’t care less how much money he’s spent… Mel Morris will go down as my most hated person to do with Derby County! 
And I witnessed Nigel Pearson as manager and Mikkel Beck play so that’s saying something! 

My dad made me when I was a kid… 
I genuinely got an apology text from him this afternoon.
