RadioactiveWaste Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 For referring to us as "the Derby County Rams", I'm glad he lost his money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 I believe that they lost money, I just struggle to understand where. 1.2 million on Sammon was the biggest transfer fee they paid in 5 years. You've got to speculate to accumulate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got to speculate to accumulate. We lose money even without transfers. Its the wages of the playing staff that is our major expense. Dont know how much they lost, but its not hard to imagine a Championship club losing money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, it was £7m at the end, AFTER all the cost cutting. We had the sixth lowest wage bill in the division and we were still bleeding that much.

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 They were never going to make money from Derby and if that was their objective they either didn't do their due diligence correctly or took bad advice. Either way that's their own fault. Unlucky lads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulcanRam Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Thought GSE and Glick ran the business well, picking up a real mess and and creating a sustainable platform for growth. Much like Mel, the punt was always that it all comes good with promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
