StaffsRam reacted to RoyMac5 in Wayne Rooney
"Footballers are not always empathetic by nature. The world they know and come from is competitive, cruel and often unfair. It pays to be selfish. Rooney thrived at the top end of it on the back of rare talent and an insular streak. Now, as he prepares to lead his team in an East Midlands Derby game at Nottingham Forest today, he is relying on something softer and deeper.
He has already spoken to parents of his players about their mental health, asking them to look out for red flags. Local supporter groups, he revealed on Friday, have his phone number.
Rooney has paid for vital training ground equipment himself and has promised football staff made redundant over the last 12 months that, if brighter days do return, they will be the first ones back through the door.
In short, Rooney has vowed to carry the load of Derby’s troubles on his own shoulders and on the field at least there has been a revival."

StaffsRam reacted to Tyler Durden in The Administration Thread
I have to say that my total contempt for Morris has grown at an equivalent rate as my total admiration for Rooney as a person.

Could/would any true fan be able to walk away from the club in this state? Especially if you’re the one who put it on the brink of extinction?

StaffsRam got a reaction from Dordogne-Ram in The Administration Thread
The only thing really that can be levelled at the Admins is that the MFC/WW claims should have come to a head much earlier. That being said they were likely working on the basis that the EFL are a reasonable organisation, which we know of course is a wildly inaccurate assumption to have made.
Other than that it’s just the lack of comms, but given how the EFL, MFC and WW have put their collective feet in their gobs every time they’ve opened their yappers, perhaps radio silence wasn’t so unwise after all…

Brian’s contribution to the game will be remembered forever.
If Birch and Parry are extremely lucky, their’s won’t be.

Front and centre for all these interviews;
1. EFL and MFC collusion
2. Liquidation completely on Steve Gibson

I took a huge breath and exhaled. Felt like I’d been holding my breath for the past week without even realising it.

True, I'm just not getting over-excited until there is confirmation of acceptance and the wheels get put into motion.
