Derby blood

Mel is a Rams fan and currently making up the shortfall in income each month to keep the club operating. It’s easy to use the word hate on social media, but would you say it to his face......unlikely. He has done as much as he can to turn us into an established Premier league club, but unfortunately it hasn’t come to fruition. He is now trying to secure our future by bringing in new owners. Football comes down to fine margins as we know and there was another Keogh moment yesterday when Byrne did a triple toe loop on the penalty spot.
Massive mistakes with recruitment of both managers and players has been our downfall, while trying to chase the dream of Premier League football and I’m sure Mel would agree and do things differently if he had a time machine.
Forum members posting hate comments should be banned in my opinion.

It’s a club who don’t own their stadium or training ground. Have over 50 million worth of debt. 9 senior players. A threadbare league 1 stands red squad. Mel wants someone to buy a house at full price when it’s needs at least 2x more money spent on doing it up 

I don’t hate him. 

Mel Morris you’ve single handed destroyed my beloved Derby just sell up an go before we go into liquidation you are hated by all the supporters just go away Mel Morris 

Derby County Football Club are my team and we just need Mel Morris to sell up and go away before he puts Derby into liquidation please sell up and give Derby a chance of survival 

See above. Had two good wins has Mel as a businessman. Well done him. Royally ducked up his third effort. Tough luck. With investments some you win, some you lose. No need for him with his wealth though to bring the whole club to its knees.

One has to ask why Mel bought the club 6 years ago in the first place. 
I’m absolutely amazed that a so called “business man” couldn’t see that if the gamble to get promotion failed, then he’d lose money. 
He can’t be surprised by it. 
It needed to be a long term project; it wasn’t and he is bearing the consequences. 

Where will Morris be on yours? DCFC's death by a 1000 cuts is down to him.

What a ridiculous post, welcome to the Forum by the way. 

He says it's a "guaranteed £1.35M rising to £2M".
Can't see how this would solve any of our financial problems, although Mel might think that Dylan Williams is now a fully blooded Championship left back. 

I know attendances haven’t been great, particularly at home. But the singing has been pretty much non-stop for the first three games this season. 
When Stretton scored yesterday, it genuinely felt like the biggest ‘limbs’ since Leeds away. I fell over the seat in front of me and had to get dragged back up to our row.
I imagine it’s a combination of proper football being back after so long and the less passionate fans being ‘filtered out’ by our current woes.
Whatever it is, it’s working and we need to keep it up.

No he's only worth c.£500m fair comment. There's lots of owners out there inc. Gibson who are worth much less.

The first is no more than a potential buyer would expect and the second is what Morris said he'd do - keep paying the wages. So why won't he show the EFL evidence, he's had long enough to sort something.

The more I think of it the more I realise that only time will sort this out. 
 In the mean time we fight on match by match .
Even if we get relegated the most important thing is that DCFC survives as a Club. 

Apparently by Derby fans a homophobic slur at a Peterboro player and racist comments aimed at our own player Jozwiak.
Hopefully the brain dead morons are identified and banned for life.

We have made a signing knowing Beilik was injured and chose not to cover that position. This is a new injury so EFL will allow us to cover it. EFL may have a million inadequacies but this isn’t one. When you constantly play with fire you tend to get burnt in the end. Morris probably not looking as smug anymore 

He has been sitting back watching us drift towards relegation for ages. 

Something has to happen this week. The accounts are out. So we'll know one thing or another.
Would be lovely to hear from our chairman.
More chance of us winning the league than hearing from that bloke.
Think to let the fans know what is going on would take caring and I think we've all established he doesn't care about us.

One we should have won, I hope it doesn’t come back to bite us. I’m not going to have a go at our lads I think they are playing better a than I hoped for. I think we are almost there, apart from someone to put the ball in the net and pace at the back, unfortunately they are two fundamental issues when you are trying to win a football match.
we really need to get behind them and be positive , no booing just positive as we can make a difference 

I thought we all understood that the squad and management were up against it and it was time for better or worse to stick with them? Didn't last long did it. 

Still 17th as the table stands at the moment. I'd take that at the end of the season ?

Not much I can say after that. Apart from the fact I’m gutted and that our fans were bloody brilliant yet again.

Do you think at the time of appointing a manager after Cocu, Morris was interviewing people? We were skint. The obvious choice was Mclaren to take the helm but he handed it to Rooney. 
That appointment is beyond me but Mel thought it was better for the club than let's say a Wasall or even Bowyer. Rooney should have walked the day he kept Derby up but he didn't and (from the outside view) Morris does not want to accept he is the wrong to the EFL for his own stubbornness which is costing our football club in the long run. 
The sooner someone shakes Mel and says “what are you doing” the better. I know he wants out we all do. It's not sustainable for him anymore but he's messed up and needs to take it on the chin 

You have to say that everything that could go wrong is going wrong. Makes Cocu's tribulations look like a walk in the park ?
But how can he change things when we can't bring in any players? This is down to Morris, he could have sorted things with the EFL by now. Even the bloke at the Wendies got his act together and paid off the players so they could get players in. Don't see how we can compete with this squad now CKR is out too. One junior striker...

Its desperate stuff. Utterly destroyed the club.
