What on earth would that achieve? He gambled, he lost, he is trying to unload the club. Venting your spleen isn't going to speed up the process.

The original of that is:
"The secret of success is sincerity. Once you can fake that you've got it made." (possibly) by the same (French) bloke as:
"Only the mediocre are always at their best" - Quite like that one.

Rest in peace Greavsie, great player and great entertainment alongside Ian St John too.
Sad day ?

Less 20 million lost revenue on Covid and catastrophic player re valuations because of that .. Derby won’t be the first with this problem. It remains to be seen if the EFL chase others with the same vigour. I am not excusing Mel. His failures are huge and demonstrable but perspective is crucial. 

On the contrary, I want to hear what he has to say. Then I can make my own mind up about it before it is twisted, misinterpreted,  slanted either way to suit people's agendas before posting on here.

If HMRC were set to lose £26m - which would be the case if what you are saying regarding administration effectively 'wiping out the debts' were true - they would issue a winding-up petition immediately. 

We might only have finished second

Not sure there are any people defending him. 

I take it back what I said about Rooney.
I've said his presence undermined Cocu - actually another mistake by Mel.
I've said his performance last season was really poor and that we avoided relegation despite his tactics.
But, forget all of that.
This season, tactically it's been much better and I've been looking forward to seeing the team and performances develop.
But more than any of that, far more, the way he has dealt with the problems at the club has been immense. First the post season, under the embargo. And, now this, he has handled everything with decorum, dignity and the highest degree of professionalism.
Rooney, you have my full respect and gratitude. Thank you ?

The bile spewed at Rooney from some corners was disgusting. I didn't desperately want a high profile player-manager to begin with. However, he's clearly doing his best and responding well under a lot of pressure. The way he has talked about pride and determination aren't made up, he clearly has the support of the players and genuinely cares about doing the best by the club. I wouldn't have blamed him for jumping ship but credit to him for sticking with it and fighting! 
The whole club needs our support, particularly on the field. 

Don’t get the dislike towards Waghorn. Not the greatest player, or the smartest, but he always gave his all & scored some very important goals for us.
We overpaid for him, but that’s not his fault. He’s moved on now & doesn’t really deserve  the grief to be honest. Marriott seems to get a lot less grief, and did very little for us compared to Waghorn.

As I said yesterday he has blown it, but we have to turn the anger into something positive. The only people it will hurt is the fans, players and employees if we don't. 

Bring Graham Richards out.
He didn't mind being banned.?

"This is probably the high from the game n the beers lol but foooook me this could be a hell of a season if we pull this off n stay up!! This is why none of us support city, liverpool or united because were Derby thro n thro! We take the highs and the lows because were proper supporters! The lows make the highs feel all the sweeter!! Glory supporters will never understand this!! We will get thro this one way or another!! Up the rams ????❤️"

What news? Did I miss something?

It was the one before (Ostigard on 77 minutes)!
Derby to win, both teams to score, 2+ bookings each team, 4+ corners each team, 50/1!
Confess I took the cash out and settled for £550 on 80 minutes. Wonderful we won and I'll forego the extra £200 for that. Watched us throw away a lead too many times. Brilliant win and I'm very happy. And contacting the administrators first thing Monday morning!

Stellar
