Puta-DCFC Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) There seems to be quite a bit of division in the fans as to if we/Mel have warranted all of the EFL attention and litigation or whether infact, the extent of it is not justified and we therefor conclude that it is an agenda/vendetta of the EFL against either or both the club and Mel. What do you think & why? Edited July 25, 2021 by Puta-DCFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think & why? I have personally voted for club as a whole as the truth is alot of the fans were behind it when we were doing well and in the playoffs and if we had reached the Prem, Mel would be a genuis and we would be laughing at the the EFL's attempts to catch up with us. The EFL on strings with boro and Leeds image comes to mind which has not aged well at all, many fans enjoyed this time and felt pretty powerful as a club. Many were laughing and being very showy offy on social media to other fans when Mel released statements condemning the EFL and their stance almost as if there was pride in what was happening. I did not vote for Mel despite it being his actions and the reasons above being why. His actions were to try and benefit the club and many supported that as long as it did benefit the club.

Ambitious Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 A ton of things are to blame, but ultimately it’s down to the Mel Morris. He didn’t need to kick the can down the road with regards to amortisation. He’s not posted the accounts, ultimately his decision making has led us to this point. The EFL on the other hand are knowingly making life difficult knowing that what damage it’s going to cause, not just for Mel Morris but for the club and the fans of the club. Relegation significantly hurts this club and it would take a miracle of the highest intervention for this club not to finish in the bottom three this coming season. Huddersfield would put 5 past us without breaking a sweat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearl Ram Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I voted Mel. I did this despite approving all he said and done in the early days but...I had total faith in him because of his apparent track record as a businessman. I thought you can’t amass that kind of fortune without being canny. I now wonder if Mel was no more than a tea boy to the brains of the operations and was taken along for the ride by them because he was a nice guy and made a good cup of tea. ?♂️ If he had got us to the promised land and we were in a comfortable position up there, I’d probably had a portrait of him tattooed on one of my arse cheeks but he didn’t and I haven’t as ultimately he’s not quite what it said on the tin. He calls/called the shots, success and he’s a hero, lauded by thousands, maybe rightly so but when the man currently the club manager says the pride and dignity has gone from the club, that’s a pretty damning indictment of his tenure don’t you think?

EnigmaRam Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I’d say the club as a whole and I mean Pearson and Morris in that. Mel won’t dream up random amortisation policies. That will be on Pearson as CFO. Both are to blame and nobody else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammy03 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Ultimately it's Mel and the decisions he has made as owner of the club. He has given the EFL the opportunity to do what they are doing to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Durden Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Not sure what the second category club as a whole embodies? Like Morris is the steward of the club so how the club behaves is an reflection of his leadership or am I being too deep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcidaho Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I doubt Morris was hands on with signings like BJ, Butterfield and Anya. At some point you have to delegate and trust the people serving you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are the only 2 people that sign off on anything to do with signings, ST prices, Amortisation policies, advertising, sponsors, sackings and recruitment. The blame lies at their door imo Tyler Durden, jimtastic56 and Rammy03 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why were they employed to do the job in the first place? Why has nothing changed? Where is the leadership? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angieram Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Despite the fact that we are Derby County, I don't think it's quite as black or white. Where are the options to share the blame?
