And has given us a loan? So he is a creditor too I guess.

What a super manager and human being Wayne Rooney has been at Derby County. I believe he was just waiting for us to get a new owner and then move on to better things.
Thanks for your loyalty and leadership through torrid times Wayne!

That makes sense as the previous owner of Pride Park Stadium turned out to be clueless.

We've a new start in front of us, the fans are together and hopefully the Clubs finances will have been sorted.

I have followed the rams since 1960 but I am now at the stage that I cannot take any more ups and down. I was in year when we were debated in parliament with so many important people saying a way to save us must be found, again when CK said he would be the next owner and gain when he pulled out. I have been sad, happy, angry up and very much down . Personally both of today's announcement have left me cold. Hate to say it but one more down will be my last as I just cannot take any more. Nobody is thinking about the fans and how it affects us. One more down and u will just give the rams up and walk away

Or call it quits on all the hotel bills/awayday transport/wage bills/training equipment/jumpers for goalposts he has reputedly paid for... or loaned... or neither! ?♂️

Absolutely devastated by this. He’s galvanised the club in torrid times and I’ve never felt closer to the club than I am now.
That’s all down to Wayne. He’s been a revelation. He deserves success going forward and I’m sure he’ll do well. I do think it’s linked with the Kirchner deal falling through.
The last time I felt this way about a manager leaving was when Nigel Clough was sacked. I was gutted, we then appointed Steve McC, Simmo and Eric Steele and look what happened there. It’s an opportunity but we’ve got to get it right.

Gritstone Tup reacted to alram in The Administration Thread
those that write this guy off because 'mel was a fan too' are so way off the mark
mel was a shocking person and businessman, doesnt matter if you are life long fan or not. he had no empathy and was in it for himself and himself alone.
this guy on paper is the dream owner and look at how he is moving this so quickly now. that is professionaism. at our time of need with the stadium he was there, and he is there again now when the club was in need. no bullcrap like the other parties, just straight to the point and do the deal.
the future for the first time in 3 years is looking bright. thank you mr clowes. i am sure it will be a learning experience for him but he deserves our patience and loyalty.

So, while Mike Ashley was swinging his bat around on the sidelines, David Clowes has padded up, gone out to the crease and smashed a six off the first ball.

Gritstone Tup reacted to EtoileSportiveDeDerby in The Administration Thread
For the first time since it all started to unravel and Mel's pack of cards started to tumble, i am feeling hopeful. the bloke goes about his business quietly, is a supporter, it all seems to make sense for once. In an ideal world he buys the stadium so MM has got nothing to do with DCFC. Quantuma can go back to their shiny offices, WR can put together a team without the sh1te he has to put up with and we can all go back to see 22 blokes chasing a bag of air around a patch of grass.
