I understand your sentiment but please don’t forget the fans. We ARE the football club. I remember Clough on ITV, speaking in front of fans protesting against Maxwell, saying that we would be here long after Maxwell was gone. He was right.
Maxwell, Morris, Keogh, Glenn Skivington...we have and will see them all off and will be left standing. We are Derby. We are here because we care and all the mud and poo being thrown at us from all sides can slide off as far as I am concerned because, as much as I dislike it at the moment, I am bonded to and love this football club. So Gibson, EFL, bitter Leeds fans and the twitterati can all sod off. 

Unfortunately this happens with everyone and everything now - innocent until proven guilty has gone by the wayside to social media and 24 hour news. Everything I have read seems to really be a rehash of the Daily Mail article with nothing new. Slow football news week and the problem Mel has is that when you raise your and the club's profile with the celeb type stuff, then people then want nothing more than to take you down. He is reaping what he sowed unfortunately. Main reason I dont want Elonso to buy club (but many others) as will just be more of the same. I just want our Derby back. Only thing giving me hope this week is the feel good story around Bolton rebuilding from the depths of despair

Hopefully there’ll be a follow up statement in words that I can understand

Butter wouldnt melt. They will always find the poo. Fox and goose worst! Loving the spiky look though

The sad thing is, while this takeover deal is still “on”, whenever Alonso embarrasses himself, it embarrasses us.
Once we know the outcome of the appeal and the future is a lot more clear, there must be more parties that are interested. It’s been mentioned by journalists in the past that various parties are waiting in the wings. It’s immediately more credible for a party to come forward with an offer once they knew if we would be Championship or League One, and when they know what deduction or fine we face.
I would much rather have a group of owners who are willing to bide their time and consider them circumstances than a chancer who hopes they can fluke their way through the tests and get to the reigns first.
The plug absolutely has to be pulled on this deal by Mel. We’ve got enough bad publicity at the moment, let alone by making more for ourselves by entertaining embarrassments like Erik Alonso, and trying to invite him into our house.

Rubbish... And I will ask Mel later, I'm due to phone him as I want a refund for the party he was supposed to have organised for me at Morris Brewery where there was no drink... 
Seriously though - how tiresome is this getting. Really can't be bothered with it dragging on all summer, just want closure and to look forward. 

That's what I am saying. Surely taking six points and moving on is better than fighting over it all summer and jeopardising a whole lot more points by not being able to plan? 
I would take anything up to 6; any more and we should fight it (if we are allowed to.) 
I can't believe that I am typing that because I think the EFL are bang out of order in what they have done, especially the way it has dragged on and already affected us BUT they seem determined to make an example of us sooner or later, so I think we need to get on with it.
You'd think their ridiculous FFP/ P&S rules have got to change soon, or as @Ambitious says, there will just be a procession of clubs falling foul of them every season.

What I dont understand is if the club knew about the appeal loss (even if not the punishment) why the constant release of posts on social media etc about staying up and the obvious relief from MM on Saturday. If everyone has known for days this makes no sense at all if there is even a chance of a points deduction for this season? Perhaps reason for "basket case" reference

Assume decision must be made public very quickly now due to how it potentially effects next season for us/Wycombe and any legal challenges they kick off. What a total mess.
