I could deliver a fantastic free kick when I was 12, but I was normally using one of those plastic balls that turns anyone into Roberto Carlos.

Can still remember the echo sound and the sting when one of those was bladdered straight in your face from 6 foot.  Ahh memories.

I left school in 1971, My 1st wage packet was £6.50, After insurence I came out with the huge some of £5.93, Gave my Mum £1.50 for board and the rest was mine.

Then life dawned on me, I had to buy my own clothes ?

I believe that Liverpool paid one of the highest win bonuses in the 70s, Just as much as their weekly wage ?, Jimmy Hill broke the professional footballer wage cap when threatening to strike.

Read this...wow

In January 2018, Mesut Özil signed a new contract with Arsenal Football Club. The German midfielder would enter a three-year extension with the Gunners worth approximately £55.9 million including an annual average salary of £13.975 million, equating to £350,000 per week.

' You greedy kit '  Paul Kitsons transfer to Newcastle on the brink as he makes demand to be the highest paid player at £250,000 per year'.  Sod all now and that was maybe 26 years ago.

Headline when he left us us. 

Every things gone mad since then.  Think Scott Parker was getting 3 million a year at Chelsea whilst Veron was on 8.  I can't remember them even playing.

Jesus.  The amount of **** **** from down the road commenting on this, from one of their own purporting to be a journalist, is quite frankly, embarrassing.  We should all contact our mates at the EFL, regarding their ******** flogging of failed assets to their Greek feeder club to avoid FFP failure every transfer window.

It doesn't always work. Last Sunday I was at my grandsons junior match, as I have been every weekend for the last 8 years, and ended up in a heated debate with a Stoke fan on the touchline. He had seen me flicking onto Skygo on my phone for the Rams match and had to come and tell me that he didn't like Derby, we were cheats and should be relegated no matter what. Whilst I know I should have ignored him, I had to try and educate him but the gaps in his knowledge were so vast and the gap between his ears was making him so hard of understanding that it took me half the match!  We have got an away game on the outskirts of Rotherham tomorrow, goodness knows what reaction my Rams bobble hat will provoke from the troglodytes up there. 

I would suggest finding somewhere inconspicuous  next time you get your phone out, then punching him in the face to save you the bother of trying to train a silverback to make fire.

The anti climax will be they reject the offer just stating we have a claim against DCFC and will progress with that.

Seeing as everyone knows there is no chance of getting cash from a club in our state, whilst turning away from a perfectly viable cash source on offer, they will then show themselves up for the poo bags they are.  Proper little issue for them this is.

Derby fans need to protest in Derby. That way all the press is positive. Our supporters groups should be focusing on this 

Nah.  Bit like the Apollo 11 mission, people aren't interested in the sequel.  Need to shake it up like Apollo 13 and that keeps people interested.  March to EFL headquarters sounds good to me.

Well that was an interesting day. Depression from the EFL statement despair with the revelations on Festy going to Udinese, Bamford further sticking the boot in with another statement. Then in comes Mel to (possibly) change the game. 

It’s certainly a positive and pragmatic move by Mel to try and resolve the impasse. However he couldn’t resist the grandstanding, bringing up once again how we have been the victims of EFL and Boro collusion in the FFP case (despite the fact even the IDC who found in our favour ruled out the possibility of collusion between Boro and the EFL and dismissed all Mel’s claims that he was the “Enemy of the EFL State”). Whether we agree with some of his points or not (I actually back him on the FFP thing) not sure this prodding of the EFL helps our immediate term objective to save the club, though it might serve to underline to the world (and the people who interviewed him as part of the independent review into football governance) how incompetent and not fit for purpose the EFL are - that might have been his intention.

Interestingly surprisingly few people have commented on Kirchner’s various tweets tonight on the subject, he’s been very vocal saying claims weren’t an issue to him as they would go away (I’m not sure he understands the convoluted nature of the EFL and it’s rules which are above the law though) and it was basically the price is way to high driven by Mel wanting back his guarantee for MSD. He was also very critical of Quantuma saying they’ve made the club impossible to sell and he sees this as pure grandstanding from Mel, blaming everyone but himself again and that it isn’t necessarily the magic route to getting a deal done. I see BAWT have got him on their Twitter forum on Monday night - that should be an interesting watch.

FWIW I think this is a step in the right direction, but I feel Boro and Wycombe won’t go for it and the EFL will support them, I think they will still try to force it down arbitration which gives them more of a chance, will Mel do the ultimate thing and indemnify the buyers for any losses - this we don’t know as he’s more likely to lose in arbitration, he knows he’s very likely to win in the high court

The plot thickens…….

 

It won't.  After tonight they should bin him off.  He turned tail and ran when it looked like he had to put in another million pounds, then he started shaking his rattle.  Speaking to this numpty at this stage helps no one.

Quite a few people on here suggest that MM is duty bound to fund the club until he’s got nothing left. Can understand why they might want him to do that but the idea he’s obliged to do it,  after pouring in £200m,  is bonkers 

I would suggest he's duty bound to clear it's liability and make it an attractive concern for sale rather than sticking it in admin.  Sure he would have got a decent asking price for the club, especially with a number of highly sellable youngsters, thereby getting a large if not all of the 50 million back.  He could have even sold one or two to cover wage deficit whilst selling if that suited.  Derby would be staying in this league as well.

Appears that's exactly the case you Wycombe numpty

Not being in the Championship this year has cost us, on the surface, around £10m," Couhig told BBC Sport. "It has probably cost another £5-10m in residual monies that would have come from us being in the Championship for a second year. It is a £15-20m loss.

I don't know if there is a viable claim or not but there is no question we will look," he added without saying who any claim would be against.  I don't know about English bankruptcy.

But what has it got to do with him ? Get your beak out Gibbon….

Nothing.

When you have an organisation representing league clubs telling a member ' your administrator can't do their job using administrative law in dealing with actual creditors only, or we won't let you sell the club and service the creditors.

When you have an organisation representing league clubs telling a member' you were cleared of said charge but were going to to let another club use it to hold up the club sale regardless'.

It's over.  Nowhere to go.

Time to reform after the Boro game when everyone's let them know how they feel.

They've decided MFC are a football creditor- despite previously advising they weren't getting involved as  it was a civil matter and before any arbitration.

Whatever happens I hope this man burns in hell

https://www.mfc.co.uk/news/mfc-response-to-efl-statement-on-Derby-county

A significant focus of MFC’s claim against Derby County relates to the sale of Derby County’s stadium and the belief that it was done in a way which manipulated the Profit and Sustainability Rules. The same transaction is now a material reason why the administration cannot be resolved. MFC, and many other stakeholders in football, do not understand why the administrator refuses to acknowledge this problem and, instead, chooses to unfairly blame us, Wycombe and the EFL.

What ?????

Who are these other stakeholders.

This sale is a killer for me, we should have been selling Lawrence who’s out of the door in the summer. Now we’ve let a greater younger striker go for peanuts. Can someone tell me why this is a good deal exactly?

To be fair, it's the EFL that have let him go for peanuts by stopping us negotiating a longer and better contract before he became noticeable.  Once his agent was aware of interest it was game over. It is a crap deal because of this.

Palace have been in the PL for half of Plange's life. In that same period of time, Bielik has spent more time injured since joining us than we've been in the PL.

Palace have the 14th highest revenue in the country and have a social media following more than 3 times greater than us. They may not be historically big, but they are certainly an established PL side.

I'll take that as agreement then.  Palace aren't a big club.
