    The vast majority of season tickets are not that price at Pride Park.

    I'd support Derby and have a ST in the Conference North, and it would be every bit as much worth it as a season in the Prem. It's about the support, not the 'product'.

    Give him your money?
    You do realise he is putting £x £x million of his own money into the club to keep it afloat. 
    Do you think not putting your money in is going to help improve the squad that you think is already underfunded?

    I honestly don’t care if it is a bunch of kids .. They are, or will be the Rams .. they get my support and I’ll be buying my season ticket even if we are down to 11 players and a number 12 plus a reserve goalie and in league 2. ….BUT … I will only buy my ticket when I can go to a stadium that is as close to functioning normally as is reasonably possible. I don’t want lotteries for games where only 5k can go and it’s masks and stewards and you can’t do this or you can’t do that as far as the eye can see. .. The thing about football and watching it live .. it’s about letting your hair down, forgetting all the every day stuff for a couple of hours, getting away from it, downloading with something simple and straight forward .. us V them, give it your all. And afterwards, either basking in the moment or deciding to pick yourself up and have another go next week. … So I am not waiting for a new owner or the EFL and Machiavelli to do their stuff.. que sera sera … but I am waiting for Covid to be kicked in to the long grass.

    I support the Rams thick or thin. Ambition has nothing to do with anything they are my club and will go whether they are top of the Prem or bottom of Div 100. 
    That’s how I feel others may differ

    Football is a Saturday afternoon with your brother or mates.
    Football is about arguing about the team, the tactics, the players, the manager and the oppostion.
    Football is the banter, the sounds, the smells(!!), the andrenaline of walking to the ground - it's an emotion of highs and lows within just 90 minutes, and the next week, whatever the previous result may be, you go again.
    Once you have committed to a club, it's yours for life, whatever division the team plays in.
    I'm 69 years of age, and next Easter Monday 2022, will be the 60th anniversary of the first time I watched Derby County, when my dear father and uncle took me and my brother to the Baseball Ground.
    I've stood on terraces, in all weathers, sat on hard seats, been treated to the hospitality suite, and even played on Pride Park in a charity game and football have given me despair at time, but also much enjoyment over the years.
    I even bought a season ticket when I was working overseas and only saw 4 home games a season for 3 years, but I still supported Derby County from afar.
    Whatever division The Rams find themselves in next season, I will shout at them, criticise them, moan until I'm blue in the face, but I'll support them because they are my club from my home town.

    Football is more than watching a game. You can do that on TV. But it’s the match day experience for me. Many a time the game is incidental but sometimes it’s all consuming. Meet your mates or go with family it’s where memories are made and if you don’t by a ticket what have you got?
     What else are you going to do on a cold Tuesday night in February?

    Did you have a season ticket in the infamous 11 points season? Turned over every week but the fans were still class, plus many still renewed for the following season!

    Well,I've already bought this year's by virtue of buying it last season but i spent thirty years on shifts not being able to buy one so to be honest,I'll keep on subscribing,whichever division we are in,whilst i can.
    I enjoy the whole experience not just the football served up.
    And if we go into league 1,at least they will be cheaper.

    It's not the doing it that is the issue, it's actually perfectly sensible. The issue was they way they put it in the statement on DCFC sanctions and then released both sets. The sensible and neautal approach would have been to add "the EFL note the disciplinry process against Derby County has not been concluded and a contingency situation has been prepared for if needed" has a far more professional tone than "we've got the fixtures all ready for when we get you!!!"

    This really is a calamitous mess and could've all been sorted ages ago now the EFL will appeal ducking Wycombe are on about suing us and we don't have a pot to p*** in ....This could all have been avoided and as much as we've been guilty the EFL could've nipped this in the bud ages ago...its a ducking joke and as usual has Zero to do with the actual game we love...I'm sick of all of this .....the EFL are a bunch of complete *******
    How about trying to help clubs stay afloat during tough times,,,No!!!! instead lets look at books from years ago!! complete and utter joke!!
    Why don't we now go after QPR and Villa for breaking FFP and beating us at wembley ( not that I'd want us too! ) 
    This has spiralled out of control and not sure how its going to be resolved now but one thing I know is....the EFL could've handled this much better....bunch of *****

    Completely not true. Our amortisation method was accepted then the EFL changed its mind. The DC found a minor finding that we should have made it clearer. Everything else we were accused of we were not guilty. The LAP disagreed with the finding, and said at worst we misled the EFL, didn’t say deliberately. That’s now what the LAP will need to determine on the inevitable appeal. 
    As for the key question - did we gain an advantage? If we breach FFP and resubmission then yes, if we’re still within limits then no we didn’t!! 
    So no the Wycombe chairman’s comments are complete and utter baalocks and also libellous.
    Starting to think you’re just a WUM, you may as well be a red dog with some of your comments

    So for adjusting our amortisation method to another perfectly legal method, it warrants the phrases "systematic cheating and years and years of violating the rules" Really? Considering the process is not even complete and the majority of accusations against us have been disproved, I would say it is "unfairly" disparaging, particularly when you see what Leicester, QPR and Villa did.

    A few points for our friends at Wycombe.
    1. You shouldn't even have been promoted in the first place.
    2. You were in League 2 during the period that is being covered as part of our current disciplinary process.
    3. Throwing around words like 'systematic cheating' isn't going to help and is most likely slanderous.
    4. Enjoy League One next season, perhaps you might actually be able to earn your promotion this time instead of being handed a playoff spot on a technicality.
    For what it's worth, I like Ainsworth. He seems a good bloke and I've nothing against Wycombe on the whole. Your owner can get back in his box though.

    Didn’t the EFL and Boro hold the process up in the first place? Should they be sued. Also where were Wycombe during these seasons? They weren’t in the Championship.

    I live very local to Wycombe and have been to most home games the last few years so I guess I'm sort of a part time fan when not watching Derby, and I'm really disappointed by Couhig with these comments. Everything he has done since coming into the club has been spot on, but these comments are really ill-judged and opportunistic.
    I think the majority of Wycombe fans will be feeling the same today, they were not good enough to stay up and really only went up due to the covid situation and I think most fans would feel very uneasy staying up like this. If anything, Couhig should be mad at the EFL for delaying their own preparations for next season.
    Way to blow all that good will they've created this season as well.

    Oh duck off. You only got into the championship through a technicality yourselves. Wycombe weren't good enough to stay in the division, simple as that.
    When this was all going on, you were probably a non League club. But now you want to jump on the bandwagon because you might have a chance of shithousing your way up again and profiting off our mistakes. Our mistakes that were cleared by the EFL years ago, which actually haven't even given us an advantage.
    How about we go back to the clubs that have actually cheated and gained an advantage? What about them? Oh no let's all gang up on Derby. What a joke.

    I'm no lawyer, but I'd have thought the use of the phrase "systematic cheating" is actionable. We've been through a disciplinary procedure that cleared us of any wrongdoing re. the sale of the stadium, and that censured us for using unusual but entirely legal amortisation procedures. Publically accusing the club of cheating is a very serious claim, and if I was the club's lawyer I'd be writing to this bloke pretty sharpish. The EFL have already dragged our name through the mud; we don't need every other gob***te joining in.
