The parachute clubs have all their money, so to keep up, the other clubs competing near the top end of the championship start to bend rules to create as much spending power as possible. If you’re constantly there or there shouts and just need that extra push to help you compete, you’re going to take the risk. If everyone’s doing it, then you’ve got to just to keep up. you could argue that this all leads back to the match against qpr. We nearly got there fair and square, but got beat by an ffp cheat. If you can’t beat them, join them. just like cycling, you know it’s wrong, but it’s a poo or bust strategy. Get promoted before you get caught and it doesn’t matter, but if you get caught, you’re ducked. Watford, Forest and Wolves have been clever, they’re probably not breaking any rules, but it’s dodgy as duck, and only not illegal because the efl are crap and haven’t made a rule that accounts for it yet.

I've heard it's not too bad and only a half hour drive away. Forest fans, indeed any football fans, are free to live wherever the F they like. Whether they like Derby County or not.

Red_Dawn Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Big game this weekend lads. I'll admit it doesn't see that way given the other ongoing shenanigan's. Despite our form under Cooper, something tells me you'll win comfortably. Seems written in the stars. REDCAR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're afflicted enough and condemning them to lives in Nottingham is deeply inhumane. TigerTedd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sawley_ram Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Anyone read the first post on LTFT's Derby matchday thread? Poster sounds like the kid who would collect Pokemon cards and think his collection is better than anyone elses'. He's also a little deluded on his history, but hilariously he's stated that "Derby hold the world record for the lowest ever Premiership points tally". The current tally for Premiership points put Derby County at 274 points and forest's at 239 points. SKRam, Foxy Ram and Crewton 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I’m not sure if it counts as a ‘world record’ if it’s the English Premier League. man’s don’t they hold the ‘world record’ for most last place finishes or something in the top division (I can’t say premier league, cos I’m not sure if they’ve ever been in the premier league have they, certainly not this century).

Well I've had some say they were world champions in 1979 and 1980, but there were no world cups then ? If we count the top flight from 1888 to present day, Derby have had 65 seasons up there vs their 56. We've also scored more goals and had more titles while up there.
