With the state of the pitch I’m doubtful it would recover by next season
-
Where do you think we'll finish this season?
davenportram replied to IslandExile's topic in Derby County Forum
As things stand we can’t finish lower than fourth. -
All we’ve got to do is get better results than those around us and we go up. Simples
-
But the guy on twitter having read the report says 7.3m and under the target of the EFL agreement.
-
Doesn’t it call that a salary cap - what’s available to spend not what actually was spent
-
The cap is the maximum allowable under the plan - doesn’t mean we are spending it.
-
That would be the maximum allowable I’d say,
-
Dominic Dietrich’s tweets states 7.3m after he’d read the report. Either way it’s significantly less than the £17m Maguire is using as it’s spurious headline grabbing figure, otherwise we’d be in breach of the EFL agreement

Thanks to Mucker pointing out not everyone has Facebook here is the just giving link https://www.justgiving.com/page/mark-marriott-1708380118868?utm_medium=fundraising&utm_content=page%2Fmark-marriott-1708380118868&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=pfp-share

Hi On Easter Saturday I will be swapping the luxury of my own bed for a night under canvas to raise awareness and funds for the British legions work with homeless veterans. At a time where we reflect on sacrifice I will be remembering the sacrifices of the few for the many, one of the few being my father who spent his retired life working with veterans and family. If you are able and want to help please donate via the fundraiser below https://www.facebook.com/donate/249109924916258/?fundraiser_source=external_url

Maguire misrepresenting wages. Gives wage bill as £17m and 84% of turnover, but fails to say that’s all employees and players wages are only £7m and 35% of turnover (much lower than the allowable percentage for players wages) guarantee gump fans will be bleating about our high wage bill breaking the rules

Dwight Gayle - Signed until the end of the season
davenportram replied to Topram's topic in Transfer Forum
maybe just maybe the EFL haven’t held anything up maybe the deal is just a bit complex and not a quick approval against the agreed business plan. -
Really? Lack of pace really has done for us in the championship in the past lack of hard workers tracking back and defending Too
-
Not right now they’re not. To judge possible success in the championship now is ludicrous. he has a four year deal, if we go up this season he has two years left. Stay up twice would be the realistic expectation but only after we get promotion. Until such time my only expectation of him is to get us promoted.
-
The standards he has to live up to are simply to get promotion. The expectation of style of play is too high and irrelevant. We play in equal parts during matches - fast paced attacking, one touch, free flowing football alongside the hard working defensive workmanlike play.
-
No fit strikers but we still managed to be the better team and have a threat in front of goal he’s a crap manager
-
The jocks were robbed
-
He was injured - struggling with his knee so sensible with two games in a week coming up

Embargo and Transfer restrictions lifted
davenportram replied to B4ev6is's topic in Derby County Forum
Yep no transfer embargo - but there’s still a registration embargo in place with every deal under financial scrutiny -
Has DC lost faith in the recruitment process?
davenportram replied to sage's topic in Derby County Forum
Every signing still has to be ratified by the league financially which is more than other clubs have to go through - en extra level of scrutiny, a registration embargo and agreed wage caps and transfer fee caps. Hardly a free reign for DC to set his own budget -

davenportram replied to sage's topic in Derby County Forum
A simple google yields this https://www.efl.com/news/2022/july/efl-statement-derby-county-exit-administration/ but of course doesn’t fit what you think or your complaint of Warner’s actions -

davenportram replied to sage's topic in Derby County Forum
Nope agreed with the EFL so they have input on what we can spend -

Go back and read around the conditions for leaving administration. We are operating under an agreed EFL business plan for two years. Every transaction has to be within this business plan.
