Then why don't you tell us?
Otherwise you just sound like other posters who don't know anything but are fearing the worst.
If you do know stuff and are trying to rally supporters around a campaign, then shouldn't you be telling folks how it is?

Lets hope so..read this this morning so maybe good news
'PHE scientists think with "moderate confidence" that it spreads at least as quickly as the version of the virus first found in Kent last year - known as B.1.1.7 - which is currently dominant in the UK.
But a source has told the BBC there is no evidence this version of the Indian variant is resistant to current vaccines.'

I think I'd rather have Fawaz or Marinakis.

Despite the eccentricities of some on the forum, and massively passionate emotions - and despite knowing how terribly upset so many of us will be if we get relegated - we are lucky to be able to have this forum to get the stresses off our chests. 
But I have just realised that with relegation being a real possibility - and with lockdown associated isolation, reducing the resilience of many - that for a few Derby County fans, they may be at much greater risk than would be usual when a team gets relegated.
Derby County goes to the core of some, and for anyone more vulnerable than they might normally be in normal times, the risks may be higher for those few. (There will be some left feeling bereft by relegation - with this being on top of other problems - and with relegation pushing them over the edge - maybe.)
Maybe the club might want to arrange counselling for the worse affected fans! Or something!
Truly, maybe the club could subscribe to a helpline service for a few weeks - and advertise the number somehow - even during the match - in case of relegation!
This is not a normal season, when the gut wrenching moment of relegation would be shared with thousands of others. For some, it will be felt alone. And for some, it will be on top of having vastly reduced resilience.
It is a good job that we have this forum - for us lot to get Derby related stress off our chests! But, there'll be some isolated fans out there with no release!
I know that I spout nonsense sometimes - and have terrible attempts at humour - but I don't think we should laugh about this.
I might be worrying too much - but if others agree - and there is sufficient consensus - maybe David could pass on any such consensus to the club.
I don't think that I am being unrealistic or over dramatic ...
We fans all go through highs and lows - from minute to minute in games - match to match - season to season. That's part of being a fan. 
I just wonder if lockdown might make it dangerously worse for a few fans out there? I doubt that it will include people on the forum.
Maybe others can see the risks more clearly, or have good ideas about how best to reach out to anyone that might be at risk of we get relegated.
(Basically, I have noticed how forum members are seemingly protecting themselves mentally - preparing themselves for the emotional roller coaster that would come from relegation. Many say that relegation is inevitable. They will be delighted to be proved wrong. But, they will cope with relegation better if it happens, I think. But, if so many forum members are doing things like this ... it made me realise that there will be some, out there, in a far more vulnerable state after a year of isolation - and I suddenly worried about how they will cope if we should be relegated.)
(We are less likely to be relegated than the other two teams - but there is a significant chance that it will happen.)

if he or she was they wouldn't have the balls to admit what they had done, these sort of people are cowards.

Social media sites need to step up.
Farcebook and Wazz's favourite Instagran.  TBH he thought it was a dating site. ?

You can't possibly blame Sky for this. That's like saying, "she was asking for it."

Once again a Black player is subjected to racial abuse for simply doing his job.
Why should he be abused for scoring against Derby? It's what he is paid for
Hopefully his abuser will be found, charged, and if he/she is a Derby supporter banned from our games for life.
If he subscribes to this forum banned from it also.
?

Guess it depends as not fair on Luton if close to Saturday 

Already got September booked. 

I think im safe in predicting now that Nikita Mazepin wont ever be WDC in F1.

He has, however, secured a drive for next season. Remarkable really.....
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

That's him in last place by the way. Crashed during the formation lap apparently ?

Na, his dad's not that rich.

But doesn't everybody think they are cleverer than the government? Some of those people are now dead.
What makes you confident it is okay for you to put your own interpretation on the rules but not the next guy? 
It's a genuine question, I know people who have been putting their own interpretation on the rules right through the pandemic. Most have been okay.  Is that down to judgement, or luck? 
For me, I have followed the rules because I just don’t know whether I could be putting someone at risk. I suppose I don't feel that I am cleverer than the government.

There's no one to touch Hamilton right now and he'll retire before anyone does. I initially thought that Verstappen would run him close but every time Hamilton is threatened, he simply finds another gear. Far from feeling the pressure, the lad absolutely thrives on it and that's a pretty rare thing, even in F1.
Hugely talented as Verstappen is, I think the next most naturally gifted driver on the grid is another Englishman, namely Lando Norris, What he is doing with that McLaren beggars belief and I think he's nailed on to win a WDC once Lewis moves on. If I were Toto, I'd be moving heaven and earth to get him on a pre-contract as he's streets ahead of George Russell.

Let's hope you are right 

Lewis Hamilton was majestic yesterday in Portugal, showed both Bottas and Verstappen the sign of the 7 times world champion he is, totally dominated the race once he cleared both cars and they had no answer to him. Bottas isn't good enough for that Mercedes car and needs to be replaced next season. Can't wait for Spain next week for the next race but I will say Verstappen is a fantastic driver and I think this championship could go down to the last race. 

Wednesday could play their U6’s and we probably still wouldn’t win. I’ve got no faith whatsoever in us getting anything against them... we just don’t have the bottle. 

What do we protest against ?
I don't disagree Mel has made a right horlicks of things in his time at Derby but what do we protest about ? his lack of spending ? no because if anything that's one of the issues,  it's not mels fault the EFL p&s rules aren't fit for purpose and hes just not allowed to spend what maybe I  the past other owners have to achieve success. 
I guess we could protest his ownership and demand he moves on,but isn't he trying to do that? it's not his fault no one can seemingly afford to cough up the going rate, the last thing we need is him selling to someone for 50p like lionel did because no one else would buy us.
So I share your frustration, Mel has made a lot of mistakes and has to accept responsibility for where we are, I'm just not sure what we would protest against because as far as I can see he is making every effort to move on but no one seems able or willing to take over.
