How it feels coming onto a League One clubs forum.. 

That was me too......although strangely I didn't have a bottle in my hand ?

Adding only frees and loans to a squad which would have ordinarily avoided relegation from the Championship, will be at risk of being relegated to League 2?
Paying fees is not a must. After all, we haven't paid a fee for any player since Summer 2020, yet would have avoided relegation from the Championship.
Who said we'd be giving multiple year contracts to players with only "a season in them"? Signing players younger than 32 on long contracts who won't be good enough for the Championship would also be senseless. Getting someone like Jagielka signed up for a year would be very good recruitment. It would mean we can sign a better and more long term player in when we return to the Championship.
Again, where do you get "35 year old striker" from?
35 year old winger McCleary scored 11 this season.
35 year old Cameron Jerome scored 13 in 20/21 (34 apps).
35 year old Joe Jacobsen scored 11 from LB in 19/20 (33 apps)
40 year old Akinfenwa score 10 in 19/20 (35 apps)
Can't be bothered to search further back than that.
Frees vs fees in the past few years, I know which list I'd pick.
Frees: Plange, Baldock, Stearman, Allsop, Jagielka, Ravel, te Wierik, Ibe, Marshall, Kazim, Shinnie, Rooney, Cole, Ambrose, Ledley
Fees: Jozwiak, Byrne, Bielik, Waghorn, Marriott, Jozefzoon, Holmes, Malone, Evans, Lawrence, Wisdom, Huddlestone, Jerome, Davies, Vydra, Anya, Nugent
Give me many more frees please!!!
I'll be very surprised if we're allowed to pay a fee to sign players this summer.
And they're still in League 1. That suggests they're no better than clubs who have never been in the Premier League

I think you’re overstating my position though.
Whilst have to accept have a high profile in the football finance side of things today, in 2018 that was not the case.
The EFL told me to get stuffed as took the view I was a tin foil hat wearing nobody crank. 
The one thing I got most spectacularly wrong was in relation to Morris.
 
Thought that he was trying to game the system with the unusual policies but never thought that he wasn’t really a fan and would put the club (but not the stadium) into administration. No one of that wealth, who is genuinely a fan, would take such an action. 

I think that we should have a mass debate over this.

I'm sure some fans will say "so what" and continue to play down his ability.
Buchanan is what he is. A young full back who is having to learn his craft in the pressure cooker of our first team in the midst of back to back relegation battles.
The nature of the beast means he will have patches of massive inconsistencies. Just ask sibley, bird, ebosele and Knight, all whom I have seen called out on here and social media with regards to performances and their merits of being in our first team.
A young, English, attacking fullback, who may well have a long term role change to centre half, who although prone to drops of form and concentration lapses, has also provided superb balls winning penos and setting up goals this season.
Another year? No brainer, even if we immediately sell him to generate funds. Better than £0

At least we'll have something to lift at the end of the season. 

Have a day off pal! ?

As far as I see it, every time there was an independent panel decision; Derby were deemed, at worst, to have played a bit of a game / been a bit crafty but were largely in the clear. 
The agenda to turn what should have been a deserved slap on the wrist in to particular vengeance, came from voices in the EFL who had a no place swaying what should have been a procedural even handed process. It was done for their own gain/ vindictiveness - levering decisions and policy with the threat of legal action against the EFL itself.
It simply should not have been allowed. 
 
 

Have you apologised to Billy for knocking him over on your haste to get home so you could post on here ?

We can't afford a Rolls Royce especially one that  regularly needs new parts.  We'll probably trade him in for some cash and a couple of reliable Volvos that keep running under constant abuse.

Same value an orl.

I very very very much doubt that mate.

"The EFL will continue to work with the relevant parties to ensure the best possible outcome for Derby County, its staff, players, fans, and local community."

I apologize whole heartedly.
If my speculating that the Mel Morris follicles are in any way connected to his stewardship of DCFC caused any offence. It is obvious that it's not acceptable.
I will take a mod ban willingly. Please. For my own bloody sake as much as anything.

Please don't let facts get in the way of a gold old recruitment team bashing.

So do we ?

Chill your tits love. It was just a joke ?
