This seems a very strange thing / a very minor issue to bring up though, it actually comes across a little as sour grapes that Jordon Ibe's getting paid to (not) play football while you're working your arse off (and fair play to you for it) delivering for Uber. 'Getting paid very well' is very subjective - we've been told it's a negligible amount compared to the rest of the squad. Also 'I wonder why...' Bit vague, too open to interpretation (possibly suggests underhand dealings!) & goes against your claim to only be posting facts, not opinion. If you know something we don't and can prove it (or at least tell us how you know), however... Sorry probably right on that as I was vague. I am not going to comment on the facts with this one, but let's just say its an absolute sham and honestly has nothing to do with me working hard with Uber, all be it fairly easy... With this one I would not open myself up to anything that would follow with what I had to say. Hopefully you will respect that and take my word for it that he is taking the absolute p**s out of Derby.

Curtains Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 (edited) I’m sure MM his doing his best to get the best for this Football Club. I have spoken to him at forums and outside the ground when he has taken time to speak when he needn't have . The guy is a human being for goodness sake Let’s have some balance Has anybody actually thought how this might be effecting him personally I grew up in Littleover with Mel although I didn’t personally know him . He has always been a Derby fan . He has made mistakes at times but he doesn’t deserve this Edited May 7, 2021 by Curtains Carnero, angieram, Anag Ram and 12 others 6 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 https://m.facebook.com/bbcderbysport/videos/2308651652601702/ Video of Pearce talking to Chris Coles back in January. If there's any accountants on here, can you properly explain why the accounts are so late? I know the penalties for late filing are rather minor, but the club must have prepared two sets of accounts, depending on which way the EFL appeal goes. Why not file the accounts in good faith in the interim, and make an amendment if necessary later on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you concentrate on the game with so much going on, it can't be ignored by anyone - there's no hiding place.

Rev Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I've always found the wonderful thing about this forum is the way it's divided into clearly labeled topic headings. That means anyone who wants to discuss a certain issue has the opportunity to do so, and those who'd rather focus on something else can do in the appropriate topic on the forum.

So you think there is too much going on and yet you want Mel to add to it by commenting on the future and undermining any confidence by saying “but don’t worry, if we do go down........”? I agree it can’t be ignored but I fail see what value it would add by communicating on the subject on the eve of the game. Personally, I don’t want anyone at the club to be focusing publicly on anything other than the game for the next 20 odd hours Steve How Hard? and David Graham Brown 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats not MM fault he has to go on Manager recommendations for players. Does he? He’s supposed to be the one in charge. It’s entirely within his remit to have a formal club policy that says, amongst other things, “we don’t spend £4.5m on 29 year olds”. And if managers aren’t willing to work within a policy like that, you don’t give that manager a job. it won’t prevent all bad signings, obviously, but it would have stopped some of the more idiotic ones over the last few seasons.

Spanish Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 2 hours ago, therams69 said: Spanish, I have dealt with the club for 15 odd years. Way before Mel and Stephen arrived at this club. I have had many meetings with them but the time has now come... All that was asked was for them to come out and say everything is going to be okay in the event of relegation or the takeover collapsing. I was asking and they know me and I know them. I would like to think mutual respect is there. Why can they not come out and do that. I respect their opinion and I thought they respected mine, clearly not. I am part of the supporters charter group which clearly means nothing to them as they have refused to even hold that over the past 12 months. Well I suppose the horrible truth is they don’t have any sort of relationship with you and there is no mutual respect as you put it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
