    gccrowdpleaser got a reaction from The Scarlet Pimpernel in The men who sell football   
    Only listened to end of part one but I don't see anything hugely wrong here.
    Presume you're talking about the way Morris agrees to write off money to benefit Derby. I would say that should be applauded rather than pilloried.  Also goes to fill I  some of the blanks from what came out of the supporter meeting. Effectively that would need to be agreed and ratified by the EFL in order for it to go ahead but in reality it isn't illegal and isn't against the rules really.
    The fact that they met someone who appears to be less than legit is also no real surprise. The meeting was set up by a known fixer and would appear to have not gone further than an initial meeting.
    It's like selling your house...do you ask to see all the details, background, CRB checks of everyone that comes to look around?
    Absolute none story.

    'Enormous pressure' is being a neurosurgeon, a midwife delivering babies day on day out, or an ambulance driver arriving at the scene of an accident.
    Enormous pressure is not worrying about whether Derby may or may not sign anyone ahead of the first game of the season or how to tell people what was said in a meeting.
    People need to get a grip on reality. 
    Derby have been in various messes before and come through them...fortunately they were pre twitter and fan entitlement or there would have been armageddon.

    This is a reflection of David’s sense of duty to the forum and to the club. If only there were more like him. This has been a farce:: 
    - the club is pilloried by fans groups for lack of communication. So they try to manage the situation very sensibly - they spill the beans - carefully - to one media source, who tells us everything that can be told
    - fans seem unable to understand what that are being told, or why, and they are utterly unable to comprehend that in a fast moving situation involving purchasers, EFL and HMRC they can only have limited information. But they are insistent that they get their day in Mel’s court
    - what a waste of Mel’s time. He’s got purchasers to talk to, a disgruntled manager in a transfer window that he’s at war with, and he has to instruct Pearce how to deal with the EFl and HMRC. All complicated things. A club that is appropriately staffed and fit for purpose does not begin to have the bandwidth to deal with all of these things as it would want. And opening another front on fan comms with this meeting is a ridiculous use of resources. Not least because any vaguely sentient individual knows that there will be no revelations - everything the club can and wants to put out there is already out there for us to see
    ... and fans are up in arms because they think we are a laughing stock !!
