Efl continued embargo has killed us 

No, Mel Morris did that, the EFL just helped us on our way.

The main reason we lost yesterday was the fact that we had only 1 shot on target. Lots of possession, pretty passing but no end product. Nothing to do with refereeing. 

100% this.

Chris Wilder got Sheffield United a top-half Premier League finish. He’s a fantastic manager.

Then he spent a shedload of cash on dross and they got relegated the following season. My point is that he is a decent manager at a certain level but has never had a situation to deal with like Rooney so it’s unfair to disparage what WR has done aleady.

Wilder seems to think Wazza hasn’t had such a difficult time as manager compared to others. Warnock said a similar thing. Rooney has the chance today to prove he is the “real deal”.

Wilder and Warnock are decent lower league managers but neither can cut it at the highest level as has been proved and neither have ever inherited a club in such a mess as Rooney has so I’m not really interested in their views. Wayne is going to be a top top manager and I suspect they know it and there’s a little bit of professional jealousy there.

We are currently an easy target for a corrupt organisation like the EFL and it’s puppet masters Gibson and Cuhig to push around. However Morris is an individual of their ilk - a ruthless businessman who is more than happy to pursue a scorched earth policy to win at all costs. That said I’m not sure Gibson or Cuhig have the balls to go up against him. To be honest they all deserve each other - as long as our club can move forward….duck ‘em all!

So threats now is it?

I’m not talking about physical violence Andy; I'm talking more about direct action - protests at EFL HQ, Gibsons businesses etc. Remember, these people are driving our club to extinction - why shouldn’t they be made to suffer or feel uncomfortable for their actions? They are not being reasonable in their approach so why should we?

You can exclude me from the Derby 'fans' you're apologising on behalf of Brian, you rick! ?

And me! My response would be ‘Tell your arrogant Yank chairman to go duck himself and that goes for your tinpot clubs 23 supporters as well’.

If that’s the best the Red Scum can do against a Derby County team at its lowest ebb in terms of squad depth and quality they are welcome to the win. We’ve got bigger fish to fry and they are not going up so it’s a bit of a free hit in my opinion - next weeks game is much more important to me and I can’t wait to be there. COYR.

What's with all these insults about Steve Cooper's appearance? 

He can't help how he looks and he's a good manager. Outthought our management team today.

True but still he does look like something from the Jurassic period..

I didn’t realise the red scum had won automatic promotion today with that result! I assume that’s why they are celebrating so manically. 

Ah well you’ve got to let the inbreds celebrate something - they’re not going up and their one decent player will be gone in the summer. ?

God I love my club! That was the least we deserved though. COYR.

Where? (County / Country)

Nearest league team? (If not DCFC)

Why the Rams?

I’ll start....

West Midlands

Wolves

50 years - just the way it is!!

Oxford/Oxfordshire

Oxford Utd

Coolest kid in my year at school in Leicester was a Rams fan and I wanted to be his best mate - 42 years later I’m still smitten.

Happy New Year everyone! I wish you all a happy peaceful new year. Whatever 2022 brings for our club, we’ll be there come what may! 

I’m just so proud of this team and our supporters - I tell you something - the great escape is on! COYR!

Absolutely gutted by this. My mate and I held off on buying Reading tickets because of the uncertainty over the govt bringing in restrictions and now because we don’t live in Derby we miss out on our nearest away game! Surely a ‘print your own ticket’ option could have been arranged between the clubs? 

I had the cracking day at PP yesterday. I won a competition for 2 seats in an executive box, 4 course meal, great seats and free parking outside the main entrance for the game. Had a great time chatting about our mutual love of the Rams to the other winners and to top it all a deserved win over one of the supposedly best teams in the league! Made my Christmas it did! COYR.

1-1 Lawrence

I’m looking forward to this one, especially as I’ve won a VIP hospitality package so I’m getting a meal and one of those fancy padded seats for the game! What’s the betting it’ll be postponed because of covid and be rearranged for a Tuesday night in February?!! ?

Without question the best manager of my Rams supporting lifetime. Made me so proud to be a Derby County fan, especially after the chaos of the early 80’s. Happy birthday to a genuine DCFC legend.

It's very obvious isn't it? Keogh sued our already financially troubled club for a large amount of money. Why on earth would any Derby fan not boo him for that? 

Because our poohouse of a former owner enabled him to sue us by not following employment norms and thinking he could act how the hell he liked. If you had been Keogh and had been treated in that manner you would have done exactly the same as he did. 

We are heading for League One regardless so he deserves at least another full season with freedom to sign players he wants at that level. If we are in a similar league position this time next year then a discussion needs to be had but right now no manager would be able to save us - we have a rag tag bunch of promising kids, has beens and old stagers trying to do the impossible. 

We’ll I’m originally from South London, my family are Millwall supporters and as a kid living there I supported Millwall so….nah duck that - I couldn’t face another eternity of watching Rowettball..

Not for me. Mels business failure at DCFC is hugely upsetting but he has been a long time charity donor and despite what anyone says .. he tried with Derby, he failed spectacularly, has been unwise, but to engage in petty spiteful revenge is to me small minded and unworthy. Yuk !

Long time charity donor who left St John’s Ambulance (a charity) £9,000 worse off.

Exactly this!
