One way the fans can help is to get as many bums on seats as possible for all home games…….. and bring with them the same positive support that we’ve seen so far this season ?

Come back and back the team like the fans are doing now, they're welcome. 
Come back and destroy the players confidence with moaning and booing, they can stay away. 
The players will have enough on their minds right now without having to worry about pleasing fans that expect to see them play like the champions from the 70's.

In a weird way the harder the job has become the better he seems to have done. The way he's gone about his business is truly commendable and he deserves a hell of a lot of respect for it.

We need him.
"He also revealed a touch of man-management before the game when he put up the date Saturday, September 18, at the end of the pre-match team meeting.
"This club has had great moments in the past, in the history of the club, but I said to the players, 'Today could be a big day in the club’s history. It’s on you to decide how the fans look back on this day'," Rooney said.
"I think the fans will look back and realise what a huge effort the players gave.
"For them to give that performance, they do deserve a lot of credit, a lot of praise, and I know the fans will be proud of the team."

Asked what it would take for him to walk away, Rooney said:
"I've said before, I care. The football side of it I'm enjoying. I enjoy trying to improve players. If you look at the difference in some of the players to maybe a year ago, it's massive. Even some of the older players, Curtis [Davies] and Jags [Phil Jagielka], the performances they're putting in. And then seeing the likes of Max Bird developing. Louie Sibley, who's had tough moments. He's come into the team the last few weeks and we've seen a steady rise in his performances.
"I'm enjoying that side of it and I wouldn’t forgive myself if I walked out on them players because I'm asking them to sacrifice a lot, and give everything. So for me to leave them in the lurch and walk out, that's just not in my nature."

What a man ?

I’m not a Rooney fan. I don’t think tactically he’s been that great at all and I wouldn’t have shed a tear if he’d been given the boot in the summer. 
 
That said the character he’s showing in the face of adversity is unremarkable. Fully got my backing now. 
 
Maybe in the long run this might be a blessing for both us and him. Start a fresh in league 1 with hopefully a decent owner. Wayne gets a full season to continue to learn the managerial lark and further cement his hold in the dressing room. 
 
Now where can we find a decent owner? 

Most others would have walked away I'm sure. Credit to Rooney. Got the team playing, working hard, faces the media, has been promised lots of things that haven't materialised. He is showing true leadership qualities. If we go down fighting this season, Rooney can hold his head high as can the players. 

You dont seem to be standing behind the lads and fighting all the way, my last comment to you

It is but he doesnt have to do that and who knows what else he and others may be doing behind the scenes to help.  

Give the bloke some credit.you hav'nt spent your 50p, he has.

Because i say so.  You have a problem with that?

Well roony been doing stuff mel should been doing providing coach for away travel and place to stay over night he been paying for it all out of his own money.

I dont think club will go bust but I do think roony will take care of us fans and staff and players would I love If roony became new owner some that actually loves this club.

The day i care what Leeds fans , Bristol City  fans etc think about my beloved Rams is the day i give up on football itself

He literally got lied to by the club and kept getting fit again but not played. Didn't find out until Rowett told him towards the end they would owe a fee so didn't play him. I don't blame him for being aggrieved to be honest.

nope

Might have more of an idea of what Mel is like than any of us?

He's right and that's one of the most upsetting things.
I've said on another thread, the promise of the youngsters coming through has been the one bright spot in the last couple of difficult years.
To lose them for peanuts instead of seeing them fulfill their potential at Derby is heartbreaking.

"...And Rooney has warned that any sale must be completed before the January transfer window or he risks losing his young players...
“We’ve got a few months now to try and get some investors in,” Rooney said. “If we get to January, the administrators can sell my players and there’s nothing I can do about it. That will be very difficult, a hard one to take.
Hopefully we can get new investors in as soon as possible and try and get some stability at this club.
This club is a big one and it will bounce back. We’ve seen teams go into administration before and bounce back. Look at Wigan now, they are at the top of League One."
“We have to be strong, we have to be resilient, and stick together.”

As you assert, Morris has awareness only for himself and not the club, the fans or Rooney. If Wayne were to resign the situation of the club worsens dramatically. It has to be a priority to ensure he knows how much fans appreciate what he has done and that we will back him in whatever way we can.

What struck me was how Mel said he didn't regret taking over the club because he'd 'rather have tried and failed' than not tried at all.  So that's alright then - he's managed to tick an item off on his bucket list even though it hasn't worked out the way he hoped it would.
It seemed an incredibly egocentric response to the question in the circumstances. All about the how it affected Mel Morris and no reference to the impact on the club's employees who would still have a job if Mel hadn't gambled with the future of the club by tripling the wage bill.  He just doesn't seem to have fully grasped the fact that he's put the very existence of the club itself at risk, trying to pretend that administration as being "in the best interests of the club etc. 
Put that together with the fact that he didn't even bother to let Rooney and the players know what was about to happen and a pretty clear picture of his character starts to emerge.
 

I think he's making the youngsters believe they can play football. He spoke last season about how they need to learn to be brave on the ball, as in take responsibility, accept it in tight areas and don't be afraid of trying a trick or two.
Some nice passages of play in-between the graft of tough championship games starting to appear.

Last thing we want is for him to walk. If he wasn't here then Jags or Ravel wouldn't be here. Its probably him thats attracting players to play for us.
Its certainly him thats creating a bit of the work hard, leave it all out there mentality
Back end of last season was frustrating but so far this season he has done a good job under very difficult circumstances 

This is probably the high from the game n the beers lol but foooook me this could be a hell of a season if we pull this off n stay up!! This is why none of us support city, liverpool or united because were Derby thro n thro! We take the highs and the lows because were proper supporters! The lows make the highs feel all the sweeter!! Glory supporters will never understand this!! We will get thro this one way or another!! Up the rams ????❤️
