ThePrisoner Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 6 minutes ago, MackworthRamIsGod said: I have a feeling the club know the verdict and are probably thrashing out with the EFL how we amend our amortisation accounting policy before a statement is released. I refuse to believe a verdict hasnt been reached, it's a bloody game of football, it cannot take this long. If the club knew or anyone knew, it would've without a doubt leaked out by now. None of us are experts on this sort of stuff nor how long it should actually take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePrisoner Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 4 minutes ago, Curtains said: Absolutely. The verdict should be given to us fans as it’s not fair . Lets be honest about this it’s the Derby fans that are suffering here It is frustrating but the fans are not suffering. That's a bit extreme. It isn't preventing us from supporting the club or doing anything else. The outcome doesn't really make much odds to us fans, it's up to the club to deal with it if needs be.

Do the two not go hand in hand? The club suffers, we suffer... ur making the assumption the club can get themselves out a point deduction hole. im Sure like many I’m worried next year that a 12 point deduction would see us be embedded in a relegation dog fight, potentially struggle to then attract players and then ur fighting a relegation dog fight with kids... I realise this all what ifs buts and maybes and assuming worst case I just rather this was not even a thing tbh and the sooner it’s sorted the better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sage Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 I have it on very good authority that the announcement will be made this evening. We will receive a suspended 8 point reduction, with the penalty being based on us following new agreed rules and procedures.

Gritty Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 I very much hope we are cleared and found not to have acted contrary to any rules. If so, Mel and the club and all fans should be pretty miffed that this cloud has hung over us for so long. But if the result is that we are sanctioned then any ire should not be directed at the independent panel, or the efl, but at the club for putting us in this position. Mel's reputation hinges, for me, on the outcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no expert, but to be charged in January and to be sat here less than a month until kick off and we dont yet know whether we start next season on 0 points or not, the common sense in me says this has taken longer than it should have.

You could go and buy sandwiches elsewhere but you have a strong allegiance to their sandwiches....so you wouldn't. Really confused ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Derby County are an M&S Chicken Club Sandwich, then I'm guessing that makes the EFL a marmite sandwich with the crusts cut off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasnt wrong though, it was due to be delivered last week but the poster didnt realise it was being delivered by Hermes. If someone at the club checks behind the gate the verdict will probably be found chucked behind the gate broken into a billion bits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
