    sonofmidnight got a reaction from Miggins in The Administration Thread   
    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 think the fans have been very very patient but we are only human and not everyone can be as calm as you appear to be. The administrators have used words like imminent and repeatedly fobbed us off and this is what really annoys me. I know it is complicated but it's like they dangle a little string in front of us and then jerk it away over and over again.

    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.

    It just sounds like Quantuma are losing control of the process. The idea a fan led demonstration outside the ground 90 minutes before kick off could lead to the abandonment of the game is such nonsense. People are losing patience because of consistent complaints of a lack of communication from not just fans but numerous interested parties. This statement is not going to help and could even put fuel on the fire.

    sonofmidnight got a reaction from Turnstile in Wayne Rooney   
    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.

    Let's again try to summarise our position only this time using visual metaphors . The first one depicts where we are right now.
    Imagine all the 'good guys' are pulling on the lead and that the dog represents all of the current potential buyers...
     

     
    For clarity, here's the same metaphor would look like if the buyers could actually
    see some value in the deal and were keen to buy at the prices being quoted...
     

     
    And to fix this problem, here's the erstwhile admins trying to persuade Morris (the dog in this case)
    to drop the stadium cost and make all these problems go away forever...
     

     
    Meanwhile, here's what we're all doing....
     

     
    Hope this helps! x

    So impressed with the way Rooney motivates these players. Great effort by all the players and the fans were amazing.  Well done to all.
