Rooney is doing it through necessity though, not because of some grand philosophy. Just look at the striker situation last year, was CKR, then brought in Gregory, then he played Lawrence... all over giving any of our own a go.
Now, I agree that Mel is being a bit of an arse with this statement giving the fact we have zero prospect of signing anyone so we're forced to play the youngsters due to his own actions, so it doesn't actually make sense. But the entrusting of our youth players to Rooney is frighteningly bad.

Mel playing 4D chess. Keeps breaking promises to sign players to Rooney until he walks, then replaces him and suddenly signs players. Genius really when you think about it.

The same article that said we were selling him to West Brom said we were buying QPR's Tom Carroll. Says all you need to know about credibility.

There's some absolute wronguns in this thread already.

Think it's a sell out for Forest's first. I have no doubt whatsoever that ours would be too if we weren't a basket case.
I could go, but I'm not. Rather go watch Belper v Mickleover in a friendly. First time I've willfully not been to a home game in 20 years.

Rory was at Belper v Burton last night, with Rob Kozluk and our u18s manager (forget his name). There was a Delap on the bench for Burton and Harley Kozluk on the bench for Belper.

We, here, are all Derby. But this is to protect Derby from those that aren't "all Derby".

Might be slightly down in places but no, it's this bad because the club is. We've had bad teams before, but I don't ever remembering being this disillusioned.

Avoid the haddock and go for a fish cake?

I think we need to get answers to every point on this, including the details behind each one. Why are we the only club in the entire football league default in payments to the HMRC. Do regulation 16.2, 16.3 and P&S non-submission of audited accounts really relate to purely amortisation or is there more to it? 

This is as of this morning.

He was excellent when he first came, then he had an injury and missed a few games then was never the same. Was even worse after the season resumption post lockdown. 

I think we’ve seen many times that overmatched squads can still be competitive if managed to correctly with a good spirit. Problem is, can’t see that being us.
