It’s a worry that anyone would be taken in by ‘fans’ calling for such ridiculous & dare I say stupid action? 
 

Doubt it’s even Derby fans trying to organise it. Just trouble makers & stirrers 

not up to going today but it’s this kind of thing that puts some  fans off anyway, I just can’t bear it.

how can anyone think it would achieve anything but harm for the club

Wrong thread perhaps ? 

Definitely; I wondered why I had to do it twice.

will blame it on having covid for the 3rd time 

on a positive I’ll be out of isolation in time for Saturday’s game 

Don’t leave me this way 

(if there’s no news)

to cut a long story short 

(any day of the week for Derby fans) 

Don’t leave me this way (if there’s no news)

(seems to fit any day of the week as a Derby fan) 

Chris Coles  was very good on commentary. 
 Trying to think of positives 

Apart from anything else, more police & stewards will be used at each match which costs money the club doesn’t have, or  money that could be better used.

The bigger picture is player safety. One day it won’t end well. 

We don’t need it 

Watched Huddersfield play the other night ,(on sky). 
 

some truly awful challenges that should have resulted in sendings off. 
 

hope there’s none of that tomorrow night & if there is, that the referee manages it better 

I have subscribed to Ramstv audio for matches - £5 a month; I always listen to commentary inside the ground.

at a fiver a month it’s got to be cheap way of helping whilst crowd funding isn’t in place? 

I’ve just subscribed £5 monthly for audio through Ramstv 

every little helps & all that 

run out of things to buy from the shop although I can recommend the car air fresheners…..

Telegraph trying to get answers, like Radio Derby 

Ed Dawes on Radio Derby said he knows fans who are getting quick replies from the administrators (whereas they haven’t been answering the media) who said that they have deliberately kept a low media profile but will be communicating more (well they couldn’t communicate less) 

Derby Telegraph on Radio Derby 

profile of this continues to be raised 

we’ve definitely got a collective groundswell of support from those in positions who can make an impact 

Derby City Council on Radio Derby 

definitely not going down without a fight

he’s contacting his counterparts in Middlesbrough & Wycombe about their claims

What happened re the meeting with Derby council?

So much had happened today that I hope I’m right with this.

Pauline Latham was back on Radio Derby between 5 & 6; she didn’t sound at all impressed with the administrators. I think she said they’re meeting again tomorrow

Pauline Latham raising a question in the HoC today apparently. Not sure what it will do, but at least it's more exposure

It’ll be between 2 & 3 & will be live on Radio Derby 

Pauline Latham is asking an urgent question in the commons between 2 & 3 today - will be live on Radio Derby 

sorry if this has already been noted & if this is the wrong thread!

Great feedback @Nishfan thanks. The EFL REQUEST TO HER ORIGINALLY not to speak up actually speaks volumes doesn’t it & her ire is fuelled by her realisation now why they said it. I’m feeling slightly more assured now thanks @Nishfan. EFL are screwing down their own coffin lid -  the point that they realise this will be the point their tack changes.

You’re welcome; I appreciate it when others do this with interviews I miss. I think the MPs on the case will be a force to be reckoned with. Pauline Latham is my MP & she speaks her own mind.

MPs are used to working collaboratively across parties , we just don’t tend to hear about it. 

it is hopefully reassuring for Wayne Rooney to feel all this support 

She’s definitely got a handle on the issues & of course what we didn’t know, is her previous conversation with the EFL asking how she could help. They told her the best thing would be for MPs not to make public statements, so now we’re in this situation & she’s not been contacted by them 

very good that she’s on board . We shouldn’t worry that these MPs don’t have a handle on the issues 

She & others are meeting later 

she hopes routes will be identified with the EFL on how it can be yandled

good point - in her view Middlesbrough sound like they have a grievance not a claim

lots of resentment against Derby, but people who the grievances were with are no longer at the club 

So she expected to hear from them if there were problems & that they haven’t acted in good faith with her 

that they’re on Middlesbrough’s side 

so she’s written to the minister 

she feels there’s levers for government- shouldn’t be standing idly by while we’re put out of existence 

EFL should be sorting things out; role of the club is hugely important 

she’s very cross; she met them at the start of it, said what can we MPs do that will help

EFL said refrain from making public statements 

Says that pressure needs to be applied on the EFL 

she is dismayed by the EFL & has been for some time 

feels the EFL has it in for us 

Margaret Beckett MP will be on radio Derby in a few minutes

i just missed an MP on there, might have been Heather Wheeler 

If that guy had a contents label, it would say 100% Derby County

Sounds like a good plot for Pride 2, the sequel.

We haven’t had many appearances from the corner flag lately 

perhaps been busy auditioning for the part 

(I know it may not be the time for jokes but hysteria may be setting in. I was okay until the EFL statement, couldn’t sleep after that) 

I missed the start 

I just love that guy - he’s so calm 

Loved the EFL comment
