Kicking the can a month down the road gives the EFL exactly what they want. “Oh look at us, we’re compassionate, we’ve given them another month”, then let the noise created over the past week the chance to die down, and then kill us quietly in a months time.

Steve Gibson pulls off his mask to reveal he was in fact Mel Morris all along?
 

Cancelled my Sky Sub a few months ago, I miss the odd movie and the sport but not enough to justify the cost especially as the 'old' Soccer Saturday crew got kicked off the show a while back.
Recently cancelled the TV licence as well.  Apart from adding to the 1.7m cancellations this year to make a statement we barely watched it anyway - so haven't missed it.
So long as I don't watch live TV or iPlayer I get almost everything I need on Amazon Prime, DIsney+ and Netflix.  Much happier ? 

I think you've  completely missed the point of my post and to be honest I found your reply a little snarky.
I posted it for people with an open mind and Interest in the subject for their consideration with a link to the video, should they care to watch it.
I drew no conclusions just posted the main points from the video as I saw them.
Of the 17k+ people that unfortunately died they, on average died at or around the average life expectancy for a UK citizen.
I have no axe to grind on the subject I try to follow the data from reports and research on the subject, now being in an extremely high risk group to any infection I have a vested interest in it.

I'm from South Derbyshire, the only times I have been to Derby in the past 20 years is for the football!

I wasn't overly impressed with Gary Neville when he made his first steps into punditry but over the years he has grown on me, especially re. his opinions on the governance of football.
I may be slightly biased ? but I think this is one of his best rants yet.

Just thinking out loud here but with all interested parties seemingly now throwing statements and questions around like confetti, should one of our official supporter groups try to engage with Gibson and put some questions to him?
Im thinking of something along the lines of:-
1 - Please confirm how much your claim against DCFC is for, how it is calculated and on what basis it is made
2 - Please confirm why your claim is against DCFC and not the EFL. You will be aware that an IDC found that Derby had not 'systematically cheated' as you claim and had fully acted within the rules.
3 - How many clubs are you aware in recent years that have breached P&S rules and been promoted? Why have you not made claims against any of these clubs?
4 - Is it true that in the year ended 30 June 2016, your club surrendered its tax losses to another of your companies and used the tax saving as profit for P&S purposes? If so, do you believe that this was in the spirit of P&S rules?
 5- If your claim is successful, how do you see it affecting the future of the football league, when league positions are decided in a courtroom rather than on the football field.
6 - In light of your recent statement, it appears that you seem very aware of the intracacies of what is happening behind the scenes at DCFC. Given that, by your own admission, you have not been in contact with the administrators can you please confirm how you are obtaining your information.
 

Ah this thread never changes lol.  Comparing country A to country B is pointless.
I see the Netherlands has been mentioned a few times so I checked to see how many over 65s they have in their country.... 3.8m, compared to 12.5m in the UK.
As the average age of death with covid is 80+ guess which country had the higher number of covid related deaths?
Unless you are going to factor in everything, including politics, the media and the publics willingness to follow the rules, its all pointless.  I'm just happy its all over and we can start getting back to normal.  I pity those living in other more authoritarian countries.

Agree. 
I commented in an earlier post that we'll never have as much support as we'll generate in the next 2 weeks.  If we manage to raise the cash and limp on until the end of the season with nothing resolved we'll just run up even more debt and will still face the exact same situation - only next time some people it will be, 'oh its Derby again'.  Now is the best time to resolve this.
Take it to the deadline, generate and much noise as possible and put the EFL and Boro/Wycombe under enough pressure to cut us some slack, else be forever remembered as the ones that liquidated a founder member that had rescue bids waiting to go.
Its a mexican standoff that we can't afford to lose, but imo its coming sooner or later and we'll never have as much support and sympathy as we have now.
