Gritstone Ram Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 From the moment it was announced that Clowes was going in for the club I knew he was the person to take us on. Kathcairns and strawhillram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t let Mel cloud your view of a fellow Ram owning our club, this feels good. We are so United after last season, this season is going to be such a positive time after what we’ve been through and I can’t wait to get into Pride Park! Lionel Pickering was a fan. The League of Gentlemen contained a number of fans. The now former owner was the odd one out. Archied and Seth's left foot 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MackworthRamIsGod Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I'm happy reading this thread with a smile on my face rather than fearful the club was about to die. It's been emotional Ramrob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted July 1, 2022 Author Share Posted July 1, 2022 Just been thinking, you know the play off finals and all the teams that “had to win” because of their financial affairs wouldn’t cope if they didn’t, QPR, Villa and no doubt a few more. We were the first that Armageddon happened to, and thank god we were rescued by Mr Clowes. Onwards and upwards.

ram59 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 One thing this period has taught us, us fans can influence matches at Pride Park. We have given the team proper undying support on the pitch, in 52 years I can't remember such an atmosphere of blind faith and no criticism. Let us all try to keep that going, even when matches are going against us. The players were lifted by this support, they weren't nervous about making a misplaced pass and that gave them the confidence to perform above their supposed ability. You didn't hear booing and murmers of discontent at PP last season, even the likes of Man City and Liverpool fans voiced their discontent on televised games at times last season. So let us create our own brand of superfan and let it become known that Derby fans will back their team through thick and thin.

Ewetube Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 So chuffed and relieved, I really was having doubts this day would ever come. Thank you very much David Clowes from the bottom of my heart. inter politics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BramcoteRam84 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 1 hour ago, Rev said: The most complicated football administration in history, other insolvency practitioners said it was near impossible and they wouldn't touch it with a bargepole. Yet here we are, clean out the other side in less time than its taken other, less complicated administrations to be resolved, with no lingering issues such as stadium ownership, paying off our dues over 3 years etc etc, and good, if not entirely comfortable time to plan for the season ahead. No need to worry about paying a landlord rent on our home ground, no sword of Damacles hanging over our head in regards to further points deductions, a clean and clear exit from administration, which has looked unlikely from the off. Maybe Quantuma knew what they were doing all along, after all we've exited administration in the best possible shape we could have hoped for? Great job, guys. It’s all about net result however you get there. They got us out without points deductions. But without David Clowes (a fan who was willing to pay over the odds to save the club we love), we’d be f***** Rev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuffLuff Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Took a bit of time out to gather myself, have a bath, listen back to Radio Derby and get a glass of my special occasion drink (White Peak Distillery cask rum, summit local). I hope everyone is having whatever it is they want to drink. Can’t really add anything that hasn’t already been said. All my thanks for everyone’s efforts last season. From Rooney and Rosenior, the players and staff who kept the club going in the darkest days. You can all hold your head high for what you did. The fans who did everything they could, from filling the stadium to organising marches etc etc. Also the supporters groups who tried to get answers. The journalists who kept us informed as much as they could, this was a mess from start to finish and was impossible to report accurately on. Many lessons will be learnt but we should appreciate all their efforts from Nixon, Percy, @The Baron,Simon Stone and everyone else I’m forgetting about. Colin Murray, Dan Roan and the national journalists who gave #savederbycounty national coverage. Special mention to Ed Dawes and Radio Derby, who has lived this far longer than any of us realise because Morris was in his ear with his mess 2-3 years ago. He didn’t get it right all the time, I’m sure he can admit that, but he stood up when it mattered and deserves a pat on the back from Derby fans. Also let’s not forget Chris Coles who after so much crap Derby related news deserves his little moment tonight too! Team Derby! Forkin, the council and the MPs who helped keep this in the spotlight and did a lot of background work. They have helped create a huge positive day for the city. Thanks to @David, @Boycieand all the moderators on the forum for all their work and giving us the platform. Special mention to @Animal is a Ram for giving us ‘up to the second’ updates (and all those who sought to beat him, yes you @RoyMac5). Thanks everyone for the laughs in here, at some of the most frustrating times they were some genuinely funny days in here that made everything a bit easier. Finally, thankyou Mr Clowes. I hope despite inital reluctance this ends up being the best decision you ever make. I hope as fans we respect your privacy, but only after hearing your name being rang out by a sell out crowd on July 30th. I’ve probably forgotten someone, despite going on worst than one of those popmaster contestants who won’t shut up and go away, but I’m tired and wanna finish my drink and read transfer rumours like a normal football fan, so apologies to anyone who is forgetten. Have a great night everyone, it’s much deserved GlastoEls, Kinder, CBRammette and 39 others 14 4 17 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
