    I wouldn't say it's quite that simple when said update could be used in court later down the line. Also when your waging a PR war against someone and trying to keep potential buyers on the hook you want to make sure you get your wording right

    Yes. These definitely should be made public. I have emailed the EFL and requested they do so.

    Sorry for repeating myself, but I gaurantee, we will be the last club to be treated by the EFL the way we have, they will change rules and procedures after this, the first team to benefit will be Boro

    Good point, I think part of it is because the EFL did a great job of branding us as cheaters. I think it really has affected the perception of the club by the football world

    Plus he made out like it was all fine and said we wouldn't fail P&S. People assumed Mel was telling the truth. From a guy who sold himself as a fan of the club I can't see where actual fans did too much wrong.

    RammingStone66 reacted to MK-Ram in Steve Gibson trying to liquidate Derby   
    It would help if any of the players we had overspent on had been any good. Apart from Vydra (who left at the beginning of that season) and Bielik (who joined the season after and has been injured ever since), anyone else we overpaid for has been mediocre at best.
    Our best players were always those at reasonable fees (I e. Bryson, Keogh), on frees (Martin), or who had come through the academy (Bogle).
     
    If we had signed Mount, Tomori, and Wilson on permanents then I would see the point.  At the time, however, all three were reasonable championship loans.  Wilson and Tomori had just been at Hull, not Barcelona.

    You would think it could even set the precident for clubs to be making claims against each other everytime accounts are released. You could have clubs demanding be moved, fined, promoted, demoted etc. 
    It's an insane situation for the EFL to put themselves in. If they kill us off, the government probably steps in and kills the EFL. If we survive, Boro sue them, their horrible governance is exposed and maybe the government step in and kill them anyway.
    Sort of feels like, "well if we are going to die we are taking Derby with us"

    I've never known any fanbase, anytime, anywhere, call for their owners to stop spending money on the squad. 
    Stop beating yourselves up over this. It was up to the club's owner and senior executives to adhere to the rules and manage the club's finances. They failed Derby County, not the fans.

    The whole thing stinks to high heavens.
    When Gibson exploited a loophole to comply with FFP the EFL just closed the loophole, no sanction.
    MM interprets the vague regulations in a manner beneficial to DCFC and we are retrospectively punished to the point of oblivion.

    I'm really surprised Neville hasn't been more vocal yet after how vocal he was with the Bury affair. I know he had family connections with Bury, but the the principle remains the same.

    Agree with the point above. How can clubs be expected to be 100% compliant, 100% of the time when even the EFL aren’t entirely clear on their own rules, and can interpret them in numerous ways depending on which way the wind is blowing?
    It would also help, immensely, if their rules complied with/were aligned to, the latest legislation.

    We need to put pressure on the EFL. As the Boro and Wycombe chairmen are chancers. Just how do we do so ? emailing them? continue to ask our MPs to put pressure on the EFL?

    RammingStone66 reacted to StaffsRam in The Administration Thread   
    This is the biggest danger. It seems that Boro, the EFL, and likely Wycombe think the Admins are engaging in brinksmanship and will cave at the eleventh hour to save the club. That’s a hugely dangerous assumption. If they’re wrong, we’re finished, and it will lay squarely on the three of them.
    A couple of days ago it was said that they were hating being perceived as the bad guys in this. That’s the angle to intensify on, make sure everyone knows who’s fault it’s going to be if we go under. Mel got us into this mess, but we’ve been punished for his transgressions already, the club being liquidated will entirely be the fault of Boro, of Wycombe, and through complicit collusion, the EFL.

    Surely our creditors are seething seeing this all playout. There is a deal in place, they will get what they need, but if this farce continues to go on, they surely aren't anymore. Middlesbrough killing the club at this point just comes across as vindictive, particularly as the claim appears to have limited actual legal basis. 
    The EFL using Derby as a shield to protect themselves is also abhorrent. Again, I don't see how the EFL can continue in its current form after this. They are clearly not fit for purpose, such a body is there to manage and protect the clubs, not use the clubs as a shield to protect from their own incompetence.

    No if we are liquidated it's another club, you may as well rename Mickleover Sports.

    Absolutely Roy .. what I mean is .. don’t pay the bankers a cent ! They are due nothing ! No surrender 
    But the EFL are the ones who hold the golden key .. they need to be attacked on all fronts and exposed for the cowboys they are. Everything else is just padding and happenstance.

    Sky's sports news is not a news service, it's a rolling advertisement for sky sports coverage of sports that are covered by sky sports.

    True but who in the media cares. It feels like we need more pressure on the EFL but Rooneys interview and Lukaku being crap is more important the them.
