Boro should have tried winning a few more games that season. Didn't they lose five on the trot in March 2019?

Edit: They actually lost six on the trot in the spring of 2019.

With the sports minister not being available, but then pitching-up too late to get involved, is there anything that points to him being a F*rest fan?

Maybe it will get some coverage in the MSM now?

Calls for govt to get EFL Boro Wycombe Derby in a room quickly. Lots of “Hear! Hears”! 
 

Minister being given a proper grilling! 

Minister (deputising), is a total asswipe.

WTF doesn't the sports minister get on his feet.

Total pisstake.

Pragmatism, pragmatism, pragmatism.

Bozo's next three word slogan.

?

The administrators are making a poor fist of this. Strikes me they are as bad as the EFL in wanting this to magically  "all go away"?

Christ we all have some lazy buggers ruining (sic) our lives ATM?

I think (hope) that is slight journalistic overstatement. The sub-heading says Everton have a shortlist of four and "will" interview them. (i.e. assuming those four want to talk). Doesn't say Wayne has turned up with his CV and is sitting outside the Chairman's office right now.

In a shirt that looks like it's his dads.

This is what she said - but why would the EFL even ask a member of parliament not to make public statements about them - simply staggering 

Remember an MP can speak in the Commons chamber without fear of being sued for slander/defamation, etc., (Parlimentary privilege), the EFL are poo scared and rightly so.

If Everton want Rooney and Wayne really wants the job we have to let him take it …we owe him that for sticking this nightmare out …but….if we got a few million compensation and a deal that Rooney only goes in the summer that is surely acceptable if he really wants the job ….then hopefully keep this group together until end of season and have a real crack at staying up …would leave a massive legacy here and if he pulled it off we should let him go with our blessing and good wishes ??

We let McClaren go "with our good wishes" to Man Utd when he was Jim Smith's no. 2.

I know he didn't have long left on his contract, but the Derby board must have been star-struck, as Utd did us bugger-all favours afterwards.

Make the barstewards pay-up, we need the dosh and they're rolling with money.

Great news if true, Everton have made an approach to the Belgian FA:

I'm going to raise a petition on Merseyside to have Steve Cooper installed as new Everton gaffer.

Nowt like a proper "win-win".

I would get the UK business established first of all and target the US remotely via your website.

Although it is difficult to know without being privy to the details of your business.

Good luck.

Stoke fans in raptures over Jags today.... It really is infuriating 

+1 ?

When six teams sign-up to a novel ESL, it think it tells you what they think of all their 86 "compatriots".

My god, somebody sign-up whoever "identified" Big Dunc to MI5 immediately. Not that you'd miss him if he was hiding behind a double-decker bus!

No he didnt !! It took him 2 weeks he spent the previous 2 weeks ummmminggg  and arrrringggg  . Which single handedly destroyed the squad moral . Just like if wayne goes now it will do . But something tells me wayne has a lot more moral fibre ( well where footies concerned lol ) . We shall see . 

I agree.

There's more "backbone" in Rooney's little finger that in McClarens entire spine.

They have only been interested in Rooney not the club.

As is evidenced by always starting a report with the phrase "Wayne Rooney's Derby Coun....................." ?

Jagielka the biggest loss so far. Hopefully we will have enough to see us through the season once the vultures have picked through the remains.

Jags loss is massive and can't be understated, I'm furious.

EFL have strategically weakened our defence with this single event, barstards.

I'm hearing Wigan?

A train of thoughts is Gibson might settle for 10 Million but even that seems too high with the other debts .

You could have 10 bidders but none of them will proceed until Boro/Wycombe sorted .

I wouldn't give Gibson the steam off my pi$$.

Have these administrators worked with a footie club previously?
