If this is on morals I'm not sure that horribly exploiting a large group of foreign workers (allegedly) makes MA a saint either ? I worked at his HQ and with MA when he first bought Newcastle. In my opinion the way he treated people was horrific.
Some entitled rich kid said stupid things on twitter 10 years ago, that does not bother me anywhere near as much. 

There are some very judgemental people on this forum. Let's just wait and see what he says and does from now on. At least he has made the effort to actually watch us play and if he is prepared to buy our club I for one welcome him.

I am not going to look for what he may or may not have said 10 years ago. What is important is what he says and does now and in the future.  Being one of the older posters on this forum I look back with a degree of disgust at some of the things I did in the 70s and 80s. However many of these things were the social norm at the time. I am not making excuses but we are all swayed by the attitudes of our peers at that time.

I think Wayne has behaved admirably and been treated appallingly. As far as I'm concerned, although I would like him to stay, he can leave with his head held high. I believe that if we could have kept the squad we had at the start of the season we would have survived but with a depleted squad it really is an enormous challenge now.

Never been on any football pitch in 53 years and I don't intend to start now! Focus on Wayne and the players before and definitely during the watch. We are still with a slight chance of survival so let's not do anything to jeopardise that.

I am extremely annoyed about the phrasing of that paragraph about the supporters. How about acknowledging how patient we have been up to now  and how it has got us, the ones who really care about Derby County, absolutely nowhere.  Are we supposed to just sit and smile and say take your time administrators, bidders and anyone else who is involved in the decision making whilst our club goes swirling down the pan. Fans are desperate, passions are running high. What do they expect. People can only take so much and everyone has a breaking point. It is not the fans fault. The administrators are the ones who need to sort this mess out. They are getting well paid for it.

I remember once when we in 6th form one of the boys had passed his test and got a fiat Uno. He gave me a lift in it. Started the engine and what a noise, wow, from 900cc..."oh the manifold is loose" he says.....

Way back in the early 70s we were coming back from West Brom in our old moggy minor when the exhaust pipe became loose. We were chugging along when we saw an old couple walking along in slippers. My partner, rather naughtily, put his foot down on the accelerator and this couple nearly left their slippers on the path. We made it home though.

I'm sitting here having read this forum and wondering why after testing positive 6 days ago I am still self isolating. It seems that many people aren't bothering, aren't going to buy tests and are prepared to let the virus let rip.  However we still don't know the long term effect of this virus and I am very suspicious about what is happening to my brother in law right now. Before Christmas he could walk with ease.After catching covid at Christmas and being double jabbed and boosted he is currently in Derby Royal with severe unstable angina. He can't walk from his bedroom to the toilet without angina. The decline in his health is staggering!! Is this a coincidence or covid? No-one can say. If by staying at home I can perhaps prevent this happening to someone else then I will do so, but I appreciate that I am lucky that I am retired and can afford to do it.
