Archied reacted to G STAR RAM in EFL appeal
They paid off the stadium? That is just blatantly untrue. MM paid the £15m mortgage off after taking over the club.
And despite GSE getting rid of the high earners we were still losing £9m per year, a loss that they no longer wanted to cover and they could not wait to get rid of us.
I had no problems with GSE but its amazing seeing their tenure being praised when people were protesting against them and 'the Barker type fee' jibe was used against them on an almost daily basis.

No but Im not led to believe it will be a points deduction either, other than by the media who also were saying we had lost the original case and were going to be deducted 21 points.
MM said in his only interview with the national media that he would continue to fund the club until a buyer was found, not sure what more you want him to say? Does he have to keep on saying it every payday?
There isnt really a circle for the conversation to go round in, you want people to help you protest but you dont really say what they are supposed to be protesting against or exactly what it is you want, other than what has been said already?
I'm not sure any director of a company could guarantee things will be alright when there are so many unknowns in the current situation.

No. There has to be a balance. It’s the people claiming that GSE were almost godly that I’m getting at. It was never that good. A good base to work from yes but they weren’t messiahs.

So how can I assess what I feel about something your not prepared to tell me ??♂️,,, isn’t what your doing / expecting , exactly what you accuse Morris and the top brass of ??♂️

Archied reacted to BramcoteRam84 in El DerbyCo
And in both those finals we had no right to win because of what the other teams had at their disposal and the money they spent to get there. Even the Villa game whatever money we had spent in the years leading up to the final, it pales into insignificance with what Villa threw at it.
This season given Bournemouth’s form right now there is a strong possibility the teams that came down will all go up. Next season there is a very good chance it will be the same and so on. The premier league will become a closed shop due to the disparity between the finances unless clubs are prepared to face ruin or break FFP just to compete!

The situation is clearly concerning. Personally, I'm more worried about Alonso actually completing the takeover than either relegation or administration. He's too close to Matt Southhall and he deliberately wrecked Charlton to enrich himself.
My question to the OP, is what do you hope to achieve by demanding that Mel speaks? If things are OK, he'll say that things are good. If things are terrible, he'll say things are good. It's a complete waste of time.

So, ok, no "alternative agenda".
You just want to come on here and basically say: "you should all be really afraid of what I know, not that I'm going to share it with you. Just be afraid, really afraid."
So, bit like religion, no proof just banking on people's blind faith.

Then why don't you tell us?
Otherwise you just sound like other posters who don't know anything but are fearing the worst.
If you do know stuff and are trying to rally supporters around a campaign, then shouldn't you be telling folks how it is?

At a loss as to what you think you can achieve , if the owner was hanging on to the club for grim death whilst milking money into his own pockets then fair doos let’s open people’s eyes , let’s all get up in arms together and try to drive him out , but the bloke wants out as fast as he can already??♂️, you want words from him saying all will be ok ? ? ,,, pointless pointless pointless,,, means nothing ,it’s actions that matter and we will only see that as things unfold ,,, you accuse fans of having their heads in the sand ?????, I suggest you are the one with head in the sand believing you have the slightest ,power ,influence,say,in what’s happening and will happen between the club and its owner who’s in for multi millions

Archied got a reaction from ziggyram59 in El DerbyCo
Growing less and less , I’ve backed him up till now and been fairly understanding of mistakes behind him wanting the best for the club??♂️,,, what’s going on now is a whole different ball game ,,, if , if ,, he lets Derby go down the crapper then that’s unforgivable in my book ,,, well intentioned or not we are at the point we are under his stewardship so suck it up and do what it takes to get us right again, don’t just take your doe and destroy Derby county FC

Archied reacted to MackworthRamIsGod in Mental health of the most vulnerable fans ... if Derby are relegated
I thought 2020 was a tough year, 2021 has been absolutely mental so far.
5 weeks ago my brother-in-law committed suicide and then last week my wife lost our baby whilst 4 months pregnant and we spent a rough couple of days in hospital having to still give birth. Tough times.
I was at least hopeful Wayne Rooneys Rams would cheer me up slightly on the Saturday, but it wasnt to be.
My escapism has always been the Rams, but at the minute it's like going on holiday to Normanton to get away from it all.

A win on Saturday is the only result certain to keep us up and we MUST set up and play for that win ,, anything else is just water torture

You really need to knock that stuff on the head mate, perhaps some people cope with the situation by being convinced we are down in the same way you cope by being certain we are staying up ,,, personally I feel it’s bloody written we are going down but I would give my right nut to be wrong and stay up ??♂️,,

Archied got a reaction from I know nuffin in Melvyn Morris fan club
So sad for Morris but also sad for the club ,,, ultimately mel has to carry the can no matter how well intentioned ,the club has been brought to the brink of disaster and that’s the bottom line , the balance between profile raising of the club and solid football first decisions has been the downfall, mel wants out now so there is no saving his legacy/ reputation as Derby owner , he will be seen and remembered very negatively by the majority of fans ,, such a shame really as it could have been so so different ??♂️
