    Hit the woodwork twice, ten men and a bizarre handball. Anyone seen Gibbo recently.

    Exactly this, there was always a big chance we would lose today. We have showed at least a little fire and matched them until the sending off. Silly mistake in the final minute and a loss but let's keep behind the lads, on to the next game and let's keep the fight going!!

    we deserved a point at least - even with 10 men we tried to get forward..self inflicted sadly but again the players have done the club proud..

    Apparently a strange handball from Curtis. I'm really surprised. Was he pushed for that to happen? Not the sort of player to have a rush of blood to the head.

    I honestly wouldn't. The clubs been hammered and will be further.  His whinge has been addressed twice and was deemed unchargeable. All he's doing now is trying to but a club that's been around 137 years out of business by driving up legal costs.  What a thoroughly horrific piece of pond life.

    Even the BBC website's headline yesterday was about how Rooney wouldn't have taken the job if he had known the full financial situation.
    The headline should have been that the administrators are positive about finding new ownership - but that doesn't get as many 'clicks'

    Simon Jordan is bang on the money 90% of the time. 
    I don't think he likes Rooney or trusts him with the job, because I believe going by his comments that he sees Derby as a club who shouldn't be a starting point for first-time managers. He had similar reservations regarding Lampard, I believe. 
    I think what has happened here, certainly going on a few comments on TalkSPORT today, is that (like our fight with the EFL) only half-truths are being spoken, considered and taken in the completely wrong direction. The Championship is an afterthought of a lot of these stations and it shows in their level of research. 
    Mel Morris has clearly closed the tap off and put us into administration when he didn't have to. He could've paid the debts himself and got the club back to a good starting point. However, as he admitted in his interview with Radio Derby, once he decided he would not benefit from any of the finances he put in, he decided against using his own money. He put debts on the club. It's as simple as that.
    Rooney was given the opportunity to start his career here, obviously not in these circumstances, so he has every right to feel coerced into a position that he didn't sign up to. The lack of communication has been painful for us, never mind the manager of the club. I just think he's not completely factored everything in. 
    People still look at Mel for putting money in the club, the £200m comment is utter drivel (and we know it) as nearly half of that accounts to the stadium that he has in his possession. He's still coming away with this as some unlucky person who gave his last ££ to the club in order to achieve success. He didn't. He gambled and when he decided to want out then he decided to pile debts on the club. I guess he said he doesn't want any of the money owed to him back, although I'm not entire sure that is 100% the case. I guess we will see.

    Because he was being employed by MM does that mean he should be barred from criticising him ? Employment is a two way straight and on that MM hasn't exactly done his part with his completely inadaquate amouunt of communication to the staff. Thing is what did Rooney say that was so wrong yesterday, he was critical of Mel's behaviour in recent times and critical in particular of his communication to his staff after being asked directly about it in an interview whilst also commending MM for the money he'd put in and that it was time to move past him. Everything he said was within the realms of reasonable professional criticism.
    It should be also said that on the other hand that MM (in the brief appearances he's made) has made comments that are thinly veiled criticism towards Rooney.
    Is this accurate, especially the last line? He said something to the effect of "We need to move past him" not that he was glad he was gone right ? In my opinion it was very different tonally than what you are trying to represent here. The comments about insincerety and dishonesty were about MM's speech to the staff and his interview in particular not necessarily about the guy in general (although I'll concede that isn't much of a stretch).
    Honestly I can't help but feel Rooney's comments were perfectly in the realms of reasonable about an individual, robust maybe but from everything that's going off at the club it's not exactly uncalled for. I can think of plenty other managers that would have absolutely torn into MM here.

    I've never listened to it, probably just as well from what I've read in recent months. I get the impression the occasional good discussion is seriously outnumbered by garbage - are they the radio equivalent of the Daily Star?

    He doesn't need excusing for what he said.
    When MM goes on Radio Derby and sings Rooneys praises pretending everything is ok, he deserves to be called out.
    Its actually good to be getting some honest news from inside the club, probably the first time in 3 years that we have had it.
    Plus if it galvanises people behind Rooney and helps create more of a siege mentality, even better.
