IslandExile Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 We haven't had a poll for a while. Time to have one, eh? If you don't like polls, fine, don't bother to tell us that, just move on. Thanks. Given where we are now, in Administration, 12 points deducted, possibly set to lose another 9, bottom of the table with a threadbare squad, time running out to find a buyer before the January transfer window.... What would be the minimum you would settle for? What would make you think phew that season's over, now I can start to look forward to next year? Obviously, I cannot include all the possible variations of what could happen. However, I've tried to order the options with the best outcomes at the top and the worst at the bottom. COYR ?

IslandExile Posted October 19, 2021 Author Share Posted October 19, 2021 Just from the first few votes it's clear.... We just want the ownership settled. That would bring stability and allow us to look forward again. There was a moment tonight, just after the first goal, when I thought to myself... Wouldn't it be great just to be able to think about football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it you mean "avoid relegation and get new owners". That would be the second option. I said in the preamble that the options were ordered best to worst. If you meant "avoid relegation but not get new owners", I did say it was impossible to cover all possible outcomes.

Van der MoodHoover Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Me, I'll take whatever shizzle comes our way as long as we have a club at the end of it. I'd prefer to see fundamental reform of the EFL as a consequence mind, not the bone headed witterings about tweaking the beneficial ownership model....

Gritstone Tup Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Ownership is everything to me, keep kicking the can down the road is just getting us in a worse situation. What a fantastic job Wayne Rooney and the players are doing under these circumstances coyr Rammeister, IslandExile, richinspain and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richinspain Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Off the field, that the club is still viable. On the field, that we continue as we are for the rest of the season. The whole footballing part of the club are doing themselves and us proud. We, and obviously they, know the limitations. We are going to drop points like last night, but every single one of them should be proud (even our goalkeepers) of the effort and commitment that they are putting in. I would absolutely love it if the EFL keep throwing points deductions at us and we keep sticking two fingers up at them on the pitch and stay up.

Mucker1884 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Survival. As a Football Club. And long may it continue. Preferably still within the professional ranks, and preferably again within The Championship. But "as a minimum", it would be wonderful for Derby County Football Club to continue it's existence. Not sure a "Rams Revisited FC" would tempt me out on a cold wet winter's eve! IslandExile and strawhillram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
