One of the worst things is, it almost encourages the non-parachute clubs to cheat if they want any chance of promotion.

You get more than £100 million in prize money, etc even if you finish bottom of the Prem. Then you get another £100 mill in parachute payments over 3 years unless you go back up in that time in which case you still get a bumper payday from the Prem. Fulham are a yoyo club and so keep getting massive payouts and are allowed to lose more money than the rest of us plebs. If anything i'd say their squad value is quite low really.
Fulham are operating entirely within the terrible laws of the game. We bent and twisted the rules to try and compete, but competition is banned by the EFL, so we were punished instead.

Alright mate nobody asked for your life story 

So Mel and our entire recruitment team weren't involved in which players we signed? it was just 100% Lampard? I'd say the more likely scenario for example would have been: he said he wanted and new LB, and the club came back with Malone. (he didn't sign Jozwiak, who I also don't think is poor)
It would have been impossible to replace those loans anyway in any scenario, they were that good. We were lucky they were here at all.

All Rams games should have a Red Button option. You know, like the ones on escalators that you can press when you need it to stop.

Someone posted earlier in the thread direct from sky sports. The DET reported it would be on red button as well, but the above is straight from sky sports themselves

Can you do an executive summary please?

“The Taliban you say...you’ve just given me an idea”

Excuse me, you don’t speak for all the supporters. I hold him primarily responsible but I don’t hate him and, in case you hadn’t noticed, he is trying to sell up.

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

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

Can he play centre forward?

We looked far better from an attacking perspective when Sibley came on, but i don't think he'll start either. He was more of a direct threat, but we'll have to wait until 60 mins to see him again

On the money side its not even like we weren't doing the same in our glory days. We were setting transfer records ourselves under Sir Brian. Chelsea had won less league titles than us until Ambramovich came along, Man City were doing nothing until their takeover and as you say Leicester are now in the mix as well. The likes of Tottenham and Arsenal are falling down the pecking order and being replaced. The "big clubs" group is always changing.
As for what would i do if Derby cease to exist i'd just gi and watch the phoenix club in tier 16.

Thompson's so small he doesn't count towards the 11

Drop all of the senior pros? 
Radical, but maybe the left field solution we need. 
Well, that and fielding 12.....?

Sorry to burst your bubble but i suggest you do a little bit of basic research cos you look a bit daft here. He could NOT have played for free (for Barcelona), he couldn’t have even paid them to let him play. Rules exist.

I said in 1984 that if Derby go to the wall I'd never go to another match, nothing has changed for me. 

Is that what you told Mel? ?
