Rigidly so, because other bids have been rejected. But if that is the case, how is it their fault? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IslandExile Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Just now, Jimbo Ram said: But if that is the case, how is it their fault? We don't know the reason behind their rejection of the Kirchner and Binnie bids. We don't know anything to be fair. So we cannot apportion blame to anyone, including the administrators, and I have not done so. But taking things at face value, if there are no other bids, surely you do go with the highest of those that are made - even if it's not enough to avoid the 15 point deduction and even if it means we have to continue renting the stadium.

The sooner everyone realises the football is secondry the better. The lads gave done great but they are on their knees. No, you’re stating an opinion.

He is the problem. We have been duped. Are you expecting Mel to be at the game? Assuming he’s not then I’d be very surprised and extremely disappointed with those taking part if there is anything like a poisonous atmosphere today. I believe the overwhelming majority of us are intelligent enough to realise that such a thing would be counterproductive. The worst I can foresee if booing if we lose badly. Even that would be extremely disappointing and unlikely. MaltRam, Jimbo Ram and CBRammette 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orphanram Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Whilst the storm has been swirling over us relentlessly there have been rays of light which have shone through to give us all hope, but it does feel like the darkest clouds are now reforming above our heads. The togetherness and unity has begun to crack, other threads about fans giving up on football, Rooney’s defiant optimism replaced with weary resignation and accusations and recriminations between forum members on here and other places. However….. It’s always darkest before the dawn There’s always hope where it appears there’s none Let’s stick together, a sing as one We’re Derby County, since we was young COYR LeedsCityRam, CBRammette, Caerphilly Ram and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caerphilly Ram Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 I have a crackpot theory…. A fairly high profile boxing match has been announced, between Derby’s own Zach Parker and American Demetrius Andrade, taking place at Pride Park Stadium. There must be money being generated by the owners of Pride Park for this event, will that person use the money generated to settle the loan and return the stadium to club ownership? I mean…probably not….but I had a spare few minutes and my imagination ran wild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want us to support the players 100% but it's gotten to the point where I wouldn't blame people if they voiced their anger, hurt and sheer frustration at the administrators, Morris and potential buyers who are ducking around atm. Outside the ground, before and after the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So please stop with the B S that these things take months. People are willing to buy Chelsea for billions. People do not want to buy Derby for £50m! That’s the problem and that’s why it’s taking so long. If it was £30m or £40m with the stadium we’d have been bought by now and probably wouldn’t have gone into administration jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish people would read before jumping in with their accusations. Sorry @angieram, my original post was based purely on an image I saw announcing the fight, once I had further info I was able to see my crackpot theory was in fact a potentially vital money spinning event for the club. Assuming more than the 33k capacity of the ground will be sold due to seating on the pitch as well as the stands. angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
