At least he tries to run a club at a profit. That maybe just what Derby need. | | | |

Yeah, certainly not the worst man ever to own a club, just couldn't compete with the entitlement of newcastle fans.
Mind you, he's an absolute shit who does like doing things on the cheap. | | | |

Can’t see him buying unless he has agreed a heavily discounted price for the ground. And that could present more problems not just with the EFL but also witH HMRC. | |

The thing is its not just newcastle. He owned something like 8% of Rangers fc and they detest ashley just as much as the toon fans do. [Post edited 8 Jan 2022 10:24]

He's probably just got a stockpile of black and white scarves he's trying to flog | |

Beggars can't be choosers. If he keeps the club alive it's a bonus mind you he could wait till two times European champions , Forest go tits up which looks inevitable!! | | | |

Fans thoughts are not that relevant really. Most of our fans hated Richard Thompson for not investing further in the 90s, which I completely understand. HOWEVER, financially, the books were balanced and the cluib was run "right". Fan power to spend on Chris Wright started our decline and if it weren't for Fernandes, Supermarket Sweep at the start of the last decade, who knows where we'd be right now? |  |

Derby will be well run as a business but Ashley is hopeless at actually building the club so it might not go as well for them on the pitch in the next few years - he won't be paying big bucks for the likes of Rooney as manager you can be sure of that.
So they might stay in the doldrums - look at the on field mess he's left at Newcastle. [Post edited 8 Jan 2022 17:19]

You don't think they should pay off their previous purchases before thay can make any more? | | | |

This is all Derby’s fault. The repeated cheating and attempts to conceal it are the reason these punishments keep coming.
What I find most annoying about all of this is that there’s a sense of exceptionalism when it comes to Derby (they’ve got history, big club etc) but it’s okay to trample over clubs like Wigan and Wycombe because they’re small and their fans don’t matter. |  | | |

About time they conceded defeat and just folded, and started again. With their fanbase they'd be back in the football league within five years and debt free |  |

Have any of them actually said on what basis?
Apart from the fact 8 years has nearly passed (why wait so long, if there was a case to sue why not do it sooner) but that aside if they hadn’t played us they would still have played someone else and still potentially lost. The opposition in a play off final is kind of irrelevant in what they are insinuating. It’s not like we finished 2nd and them 3rd and denied them an auto spot (a bit like what our six fingered friends tried to imply a few years earlier when trying to pilfer the title from us).

Also, we’ve already been punished and continue to be punished for our financial indiscretions back then.
You can’t be tried for the same case twice especially as we were found guilty.
Also, WRDC owe the tax man millions which actually means they owe you and me! | | | |

The only person Derby fans should blame is Mel Morris and his dodgy accounting practices (which most of them thought were funny).
At least our owners haven't run off leaving the club in the 5hit after the mistakes they made. |  |

They may even stay up !! Rooney is doing a great job you have to doff your cap to him |  |
| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

Bold Prediction: Derby stay up.
The teams at the bottom of the Championship are terrible. Derby are half decent and are winning games. They've picked up 13 of the last 15 points. The three teams above them have a combined 8 points over the last 5 games. Combined! They do not need to win at anything like their current rate to get themselves out of trouble, TBH |  |

Totally, he could have walked away and nobody would have blamed him, but much to my surprise he stayed and even more to my surprise (and disappointment!) he’s doing a very good job. | | | |

This. I think he's handled the situation with dignity and has done brilliantly to give Derby a punchers chance of staying up. I doubt whether Frank would've stuck around. |  | | |

I agree Rooney doing a great job and now they are just 9 points from safety with plenty of games left. Since losing to us and Bristol, they have beaten Blackpool, West Brom, Stoke and come from two down at Reading in the last 5 minutes of the game. If they win at Forest next week I believe they will stay up. |  | | |
