    We put a lot of work in to developing players and then play them in half a dozen different positions they're not suited for and then wonder why they do better when they leave us. May as well not bother developing anyone if we're just going to ruin their development as soon as they get in the first team

    I usually have GoC on block, but i knew he'd come and try and justify our misdemeanours with a boatload of irrelevant statistics, so i had a little look to see what he said. Nothing he said changed the fact that we breached FFP. You can try and twist the sale of the stadium however you like and moan about how much the efl hates us, but we only had to sell it because we spent too much - ie - we cheated. Selling the stadium is just another method of cheating same as selling players to yourself. We knew the ffp limits and still failed to stick to them. Justify it to yourself however you want, but dont try and pretend we're whiter than white.

    Nah - we cheated and got caught out. We don't have a long list of wealthy Derby millionaires willing to buy us regardless of how much debt we were saddled with. One way or the other Mel was going to take us down the toilet.

    Or any athletics competition really. Just got to find one of the cheating methods that is totally fine with the EFL such as transferring failed players to another club we own or using a super agent to get everyone at knock down prices and then we can cheat without fear of repercussions

    We cheated as well. They just cheated better than us. We breached ffp for the period that covered the final and now we're where they would have been if they'd lost to us

    I wouldn't want to sit with someone banging a drum right next to me for 90+ minutes either. You can't just tell people don't sit in the south stand unless you want to go deaf.

    Did you read my post? I said "I" throughout.
    You highlighted "the high expectation of the supporters". That's not speaking on your behalf, that's my perception of our fanbase... Our supporters do have high expectation IMHO.
    Sheesh, are you saying you don't?

    I think this will probably happen.
    Let's be honest. His contract is up in a year. Even if we go up, the fact he's getting linked with teams like Brighton would probably suggest he's going to have some offers from top end championship and Prem teams meaning it's probably unlikely he would sign a new deal here.
    Getting £3 million now would enable us to add 3-4 new signings whilst getting to keep Cashin for the last year of his deal anyway.
    If they are offering £3 million we just cannot turn that down.

    Would be a good signing if ditching 352, or at least make us more flexible between formations. He also played for Barnsley which is only 12.7 miles from Rotherham.

    When did we become a top side in league 1? We have a lot of fans for a league 1 side, but we've shown nothing so far to show we're a "top side" in this division. Warneball is going ruin Cashin and Bird. Let them go so the damage isnt permanent

    How many have played loads of games for us and gone onto bigger things? 
    If he goes to brighton they'll be sending him out to play in the championship or a top side in league one. Playing in our current team is no good for him - brighton will be better for his development

    Max Bird is the last remaining player in our squad who can actually play football. He is calm under pressure and can pick a pass.
    It’s not his fault he’s surrounded by less talented players.
    He is one of those who will be a better player elsewhere. He was at his best learning from Rooney. He won’t get better in a hoofball side.
    I’ll be gutted when he leaves but I guess it’s all part of our transition from a chrysalis to a slug.

    Agree.
    If Percy's info is accurate and we're saying the only deal is with a loan-back then I can't see a 'footballing' side showing an interest.
    Cashin can defend and win headers....and he's as tough as nails and committed. He's a very decent player in league 1.......and a much better 'footballer' than the current system allows him to be.
    But he would develop more by training alongside very high calibre players for a year than lumping long diagonals in league 1. Why would you buy a player you think you can develop and then watch them stagnate?
    Let's not forget that they binned Roberts after a year of 'development' with us.
    I wouldn't be surprised if the loan-back is the sticking point rather than the fee.

    Nope. If you don't like someone banging a drum in your ear you shouldn't be forced to move out of a seat you may have had for years just because someone wants to tunelessly smash a drum all game. Find him somewhere he can sit that doesn't present a detriment to other fans enjoyment of the game and you can bang the drum as much as you like. Either that or buy all the seats around the drummer - problem solved.
    As for your third paragraph don't be silly. Anyone sat next to that who doesn't already have significantly damaged hearing is going to be bothered by it. If you can clearly hear the drum from the other side of the stadium - which I assure you we can - then there is no chance its not damaging peoples hearing if they are sat right next to it. If you and your mates don't mind a bit of deafness by all means sit next to the drummer boy, but don't be surprised if other people don't share your lackadaisical views.
