In it I'll thank him for an extra 2 million quid in loans, an extra 2.5 million in admin fees, not being able to sign any loans in January, losing 3 young players for 2 million quid in January, selling the extras for Delap for 10% of there worth, allowing a battling midfielder - ideal for games like tomorrow for 30k, not being able to negotiate contracts for young players or any players out of contract in 6 months potentially losing millions and affecting club saleability, losing potentially the player of the year as we couldn't extend his contract and causing everyone 6 months of stress at the tail end of one of the most stressful 2 years in history. Have I missed anything apart from a love heart. But Derby cheated remember?! If they don’t sell all their squad for tuppance and get relegated they’ve not been punished sufficiently.

Mihangel Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 In a way, I've got a little admiration for Gibso (© @Van der MoodHoover), he has managed to scramble a deal together that results in a fantastic £0 for his football club and be celebrated as some sort of latter day Henry Kissinger style negotiator by his band of loyal fans. Kudos is due IMO. Van der MoodHoover 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TuffLuff Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Is it worth pointing out that Gibson’s extra security talk before the game was just more smoke & mirrors nonsense in a long list of smoke & mirrors nonsense from the bloke?

He had a couple of rows empty around him and two armed police stood at the entry to the directors box. Then above average numbers of police and stewards around the Derby fans, these then turned rather heavy handed after the match as they craved to manufacture the headline that we were up to no good.

Ah the ‘standing out like a sore thumb’ security approach, always smart that. But also fully agree that it was another headline manufacturing exercise by the pillock, that probably only caused more innocent people to end up in harms way. It’s a bit sad but I’m just glad we’ve come out of it relatively unscathed and didn’t give him what he wanted.

I might be missing something here but our offences are limited to using a perfectly legal accountancy technique which nevertheless didn't offer a level playing field when compared to other teams using a different practice. Granted, this was clearly done to circumnavigate FFP rules and was done to capitalise on something that was not adequately defined or tied down. It is not that it were fraudulently done in law and the comment from the panel was that we had not made it sufficiently clear that we were doing this. So that's it isn't it ? The sum total of our 'crimes', for which we got a £100,000 fine and a 9 point deduction which seems more than sufficient. The administration penalty meant that this was now 21 points total and a continuation of a seemingly endless ongoing embargo that has resulted in contract after contract expiring and the loss of millions of pounds of young talent on top of most of our senior pros and barely enough players on the books come the summer to field a team never mind squad. This idea that we have somehow got off lightly is just laughable. To listen to some you'd think we have been involved in match fixing on an epic scale or something.

I along with @angieram was on the last row nearest to the home fans, we were “ protected “ by a line of young girl stewards that would not have been able to cope if there was any major disorder ie Derby fans crossing the barrier. No police anywhere near us, they were all at the front with there cameras rolling. The cynic inside me did wonder if indeed someone was looking for a headline.
