The_Sheriff

My original post seems to have been deleted, which I think tells us all we need to know about what questions will be allowed to be asked or answered by DCFC.  I wonder why there has been so many negative posts about the club deleted, we already know that the Derby Telegraph are on the naughty step.............   
Wait until the accounts are all published, I believe that the fans will be up in arms when you realise just how much debt we are actually in.  Lets face it failing to pay the HMRC and the players on time is hardly a resounding vote of confidence as to the state of the clubs finances.  I'll happily have a £100 charity bet loser pays if we are in a better financial state (Debts) than when Mel took over. 
Mel Morris who once courted the media has been conspicuous by his absence since it has all; gone wrong!
I'd like to know why was my post deleted, are we too frightened to ask the difficult questions or has a certain moderator been told that certain questions can not be asked therefore deleting them?  My post was made in all seriousness and I'd happily meet Mel and calmly ask him lots of questions, the trouble is, I very mush doubt Mel would like to answer questions about recklessly stewardship of our club, which includes selling our biggest asset the stadium...
 

Bookies not giving us much of a chance.
Anyone thinking of fluttering on a win to Derby?

Is anyone else on this forum actually born and live in Derby like myself? ?

Thinking logically, if you live in Derby and are surrounded by Derby fans at home and at work, you're possibly less likely to use this forum, compared to people who are distanced from the club.

I agree mate. 
I think another striker is an absolute must. 

Nah, it's not the EFL we should blame. 
It's the fans. 

EFL regulation 24 covers the fielding of a weakened team in a championship league game see below,
Regulation 24 The Requirement to Play Full Strength Sides in League Matches 
24.1 Each Club shall play its full strength in all Matches played under the auspices of The League unless some satisfactory reason is given. In the event of the explanation not being deemed satisfactory the Board shall refer the matter to a Disciplinary Commission which has the power to impose such penalties as it shall think fit.
My preposition  is that if the EFL forces DCFC by means of this Embargo, to knowingly have the Rams field a weakened side at the start of the season, then they will be guilty of breaking their own regulations, and to my mind if we some months later we were able to strengthen the team, and go on a good set of results, we could seriously affect both relegation and promotion in the league.
My view is that given we only currently have without any additional players a team that will find it very difficult to get results, then the EFL is playing with fire, and for once maybe it could be Mr Gibsons team that could be adversely affected.
I am going to write to the EFL to point out they will transgress their own regulations if they do not see sense.
 

All Nixon’s tweets are cryptic or stating the bleeding obvious. It’s almost like he’s got a pack of cards with random comments on, which he uses to answer tweets.

The ultimate blame lies with the supporters, demanding new players twice a year, demanding seat prices to be lower and demanding promotion to the premiership whatever the cost. So the richest man in Derby has run out of cash and the will to carry on subsidizing a club where a  cohort  of supporters want him to “walk away now” and to “eff off” but are evidently not prepared to put their own hands in their pockets in any meaningful way. The facts are (for the benefit of corporal dictionary).The wages are being paid as evidenced by no new charges from the EFL, new potential signings do want to join the Rams as evidenced by the quantity of triallists, previous foot balling debts paid evidenced by the removal of that charge by the EFL, but no this is not enough, the fans want see Mel bankrupted all his money gone and living in a cardboard box under a railway arch, the loss of hundreds of millions of his personal money is not enough, he should be made to eff off so the baying rabble shout. My last word is be careful what you wish for you might get it, he or MSD would still own the stadium, wages would not be paid and more than a hundred employees of DCFC would lose their jobs and the club would be liquidated.
Would that give you satisfaction?
cutting ones nose off would appear to be the plastic surgery of choice for most on here.

He played for Southend before we signed him.

Wycombe Chairman, Rick Parry, Steve Gibson, Coventry City fans forum, Rod Liddle, Kenneth Williams, Kieran Maguire, .........It’s all gone quiet over there.

Bye bye Jack.
 

What's it got to do with him? 

But the problem is that we are competing with clubs with ludicrous parachute payments giving them an unfair advantage. Clubs have no choice but to gamble in some way in order to compete.

I’ve emailed the sports minister and my MP for NW Leicestershire :  Andrew Bridgen, he’s replied to say he will raise the issue with the EFL…..

In 2 days?
Get a grip.

I have emailed the sports minister and the football governance review body and my local MP, in case Crouchy won’t deal with my email as I’m not a constituent.
I think all Rams fans should do the same, as the EFL is out of control and not showing any fairness in its approach.
Every bit helps !!
 
I would ask you urgently to intervene in the witch-hunt being undertaken by the EFL towards my football club, Derby County. 
Having been fined £100 000 yesterday and warned re future accounting practices, following investigation by an independent panel ( for the second time), the EFL continue to press for a points deduction, with an unprecedented aim to relegate the club after the season has finished.
What is the point of an independent panel if its decision is not respected by the regulator ?
I feel the EFL is out of control, is being heavily influenced by third parties and is therefore not acting in a fair and unbiased way.
The EFL needs to be warned by the government about its behaviour towards its member clubs. Currently its approach is verging on bullying and I suspect it will end in the High Court, with the destruction of a founder member of the football league and hundreds of associated redundancies.

Set up a crowd-funding site?

I really don’t see why the EFL are a disgrace, we “bent” the rules, I think we would all agree we broke a number of rules. Therefore we should take whatever punishment they want to dish out. I think only one party is a disgrace and it’s Derby County Football Club. 

Clarke is not average at all, he's a top quality CB and is easily one of the best in the league. He's certainly one of the best LCB's in the league. The reason we concede "stupid goals from crosses" is because of who he has to play next to. If his LB isn't closing down crosses or the fact both our keeper don't come out for crosses, we're always going to concede goals from crosses even if we had a prime Terry at the back.

Really?    Out of interest when do you believe we stop being scared and live decent lives around a virus that is never going away and is dangerous to only a very small percentage of the population even before vaccines which we are lead to believe cuts that number greatly ??‍♂️
