Boro were relegated from the premiership in 2001 due to a 3 point deduction for failing to fulfill a fixture against Blackburn Rovers,  just thought I would mention this

Yep.

I pointed it out as a bit of a joke before but you need to look at the history of new EFL boss man Rick Parry and how his and others' decisions affected Steve Gibson. 

It all smacks of making amends and carrying out future actions of appeasement in the fear of legal repercussion.

Mel now realises that he made massive mistake cost him dear and also the club.

But gibson is trying to destroy the club and giving wycombe owner to do the same but if stop gibson he will back down too.

But maybe we can bang togather try raise some funds to keep us going of higher top lawyer who is a Derby fan who is willing to take banker gibson on.

Good luck with that.

Did Mel shag his missus or something? He challenged us on the sale of the stadium (which cost us a takeover if Mel is to be believed) it was ruled as fair practice and yet he's still hounding us, it just comes off as bitter now...

So we prevented them getting in the play offs? They still had work to do to get in the prem…total nonsense, just ignore the numptie….

Horrible, bitter little ****. 

I bet he’s a joy to be around and so much fun at parties, the miserable prat. 

Pursuing this legal claim whilst the club is on its knees and people are losing their jobs and possibly their homes as a result shows what a vindictive, nasty little bully he is. 

And I bet he’s got a small d*** 

rant over

Here we are, administrators in, massive points deduction, an estimated £50m or whatever in debt, unable to pay wages. And then we read in the Teesside Gazette that Steve Gibson is suing Derby County. https://www.gazettelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/middlesbrough-Derby-rooney-mel-morris-21660410

His gripe is that Mel sold the stadium to another of Mel's companies (accepted as OK by the League because not every club owns their stadium and you can't force a club to) and that Derby loaned Matt Clarke when Gibson wanted him to go to Middlesbrough.

Of course claims such as these are manifestly absurd and would normally be laughed out of court. But the problem is it's inconceivable that the Derby Administrators can also afford to pay lawyers to fight the Middlesboro Chairman. Equally, it's inconceivable that Derby could afford any additional fines the courts might impose.

The sole purpose of this can only be to ensure the end of Derby County as a football club. Nothing less. The entire football world including honest Middlesbrough fans should be outraged by this behaviour and condemn it in the strongest possible terms. The club can't afford to fight this, so it's up to us fans to shame Gibson into stopping this despicable course of action.

We could even profit from it - QPR would have precedent set by the courts and we could destroy them as well 

ironic to think that Middlesbrough would even have had scored a goal against leeds never mind Aston Villa

This would be a very slippery slope for football if they acted on it. In world of football the 'What if?' game is the road to madness and obsession. We've all seen moments of injustice down the years, for and against. Perhaps we should start reviewing decades of penalty decisions to see if we can engineer a different result and perhaps all the clubs can chip in for a massive barn-sized super computer to re-crunch every result since football has been on TV.

Perhaps Rotherham would like to sue us for that uber soft penalty for a slight jostling of Jeff Chandler ? Or perhaps we can sue Leicester for Savages dive ? Perhaps dozens of teams can sue Liverpool for the time that we were not allowed in European competition after Heysel??

Jeez, just move on man, we've getting shafted and relegated. Well done, hope you're happy now.
