Fooking w@nkers.
Actually feel sorry for the fans | | | |  |

I feel for their fans, and I don't see much wrong with the general consensus on their board at the time.
We did cheat, we were thoroughly unlikable at the time, we did prosper by cheating (the fine was less than our financial gains which we accrued by cheating, though we failed to take advantage of it and got relegated straight away again). | |

I'm glad we are so above bitterness...:mellow:
"I genuinely hated them during that period, whether we lost to them or not in the final. They became among my most despised clubs and will probably remain there forever more, the play off final just cemented. It genuinely pissed me off how badly they were flaunting the ffp rules, and it gave me no end of glee that they didn’t go up automatically, it kissed me off that they managed to squeeze up through the play offs (even more so as it was at our expense) and then it gave me no end of glee that they did so crap in the premier league. It still gives me glee that they’ve never really recovered, and I’m beside myself with glee that they might actually get the fine which will totally f*** them up.
The funny thing is, they didn’t actually prosper by breaking the rules anyway, one season in the prem, then back in the daldrums, and they’re being f****** with a big fine on top if all their other woes. Cheaters really don’t prosper. " | | | |

their appeal hearing yesterday was adjourned with no updates?
EFL dithered too long last season, wycombe should have stayed up because any pts deduction last season would have saved them. | | | |

Total mess but EFL involved so why am I surprised? | |

We did cheat as did others such as Leicester and Bournemouth - they got away with it because they stayed up and then negotiated a settlement with the EFL. We didn't because we got relegated back into the Championship and back under EFL jurisdiction. | |

That’s where the unfairness comes from. It seems our “cheating” was penalised harsher because we did not gain much from it. Very odd | | | |
| Derby into Admin on 17:35 - Nov 11 with 8206 views | BrianMcCarthy |
I accept that, Pedro, definitely. But that too was our own fault.
We did get away with it as we got promoted, which we probably wouldn't have had we not cheated. So someone else should have gone up in our place.
That we messed it up afterwards was, imho, a separate issue. | |

Impossible to say. | | | |

I notice that it's now "Derby County" go into administration and not "Wayne Rooney's Derby County" going administration | |

we broke spending rules, but cheated? we were potless, had the buckets out, fans did walks and cycle rides to raise money , we suddenly got rich owners who like many clubs had a spree, FFP rules were new and maybe naively dismissed ?? for it all did we get VFM? personally we got dross, fer ffs!! | | | |

He would’ve had to pay a lot of money for a club on a downward spiral who don’t own their ground.Not a very sensible financial move for someone who isn’t even a Derby fan. | | | |

Most of the time, when the cameras zoomed in on him, he was looking at his phone. He was obviously super interested. He probably saw Rooney's bar tab. | | | |

"It included purchasing the stadium".
The administrarors must have rolled tgheir eyes at that. Good luck with trying to buy something that the administrators can't sell! | | | |

He probably wanted it all on the cheap and Morris wanted full monies back of course.
After a while he realised that Morris could be taking him for mug so, he's picked up his ball and will be going somewhere else that's for sure.
Just guessing of course as my mate down the pub isn't in the know. | |

Probably the best decision Kirchner ever made. Buy the club in its entireity or not at all. League 1 bound money hole.
Now I'm starting to feel a little sorry for their fans but at the same time, a mess some actively encouraged. | | | |

Obviously the business of football isn't normal but I really struggle to see why anyone who is savvy enough to be able to raise the level of funds to "own" a football club would consider Derby. There has to be half a dozen other clubs available for sale that don't have tens of millions of debt, do have a ground and probably aren't in League 1 next year. Unless Morris gives up the ground for a free rather than the £80M it "supposedly sits on his books" it just seems to me that liquidation is nailed on. | | | |
| Derby into Admin on 11:00 - Dec 24 with 6153 views | LazyFan |
Indeed.
I think this year Sunderland were taken over by richie. And they own their ground which is 49K capacity.
You would only buy Derby if you were a billionaire and a Derby fan. | |

I assume he realised he was merely buying a business with debt galor and ongoing spiralliing costs.
Derby as the entity the Administrators are trying to flog are not worth looking at.
What is it £58m just from the get go from debts. | | | |

Let’s hope HMRC realise he has just made 400 million so should be able to settle the Tax bill in full. | |
