Wayne Rooney is under further scrutiny at Derby after it emerged he was responsible for the injury which has sidelined midfielder Jason Knight for up to 12 weeks.
Rooney, the Derby manager, went in for a challenge on Knight during a training game and left the Republic of Ireland international with an ankle injury which threatens to rule him out for at least two months of the crisis-hit Championship club's season.
The incident occurred at Pennyhill Park, the luxury hotel and spa in Surrey where Derby recently stayed for a pre-season training camp, with Rooney taking part to make up the numbers due to the club's lack of players.
Rooney has only nine registered senior players, with two of those goalkeepers, and the absence of Knight is another damaging blow to Derby's campaign as their legal row with the Football League continues.
It is understood that Rooney's challenge with Knight was a "50-50" and an accident, but it is the 20-year-old academy product who is now facing an extended period out of action.
Rooney has endured a difficult weekend after reporting a range of photographs to Greater Manchester Police which appeared to show him asleep in a hotel room with a group of young women. |

I have just noticed that you can't get a bet on Derby to be relegated!
I looked at Oddschecker, which displays prices offered by all bookies. They're not being quoted by anyone. I have never seen this happen, before the start of a season. |  | | |

They really are in a mess. Just been on their message board and they still have not released season tickets for sale blaming Covid and yet the rest of the football world has. It seems that they will sell tickets just on a match by match basis. This suggests to me that the owner is certainly not confident of getting a buyer (who would buy that rabble when it is massively in debt, has only 9 first team players on the books including two keepers, massively in debt and doesn’t own its own ground anymore and if they did want to buy the ground back would have to certainly find £80million + to continue to satisfy the EFL that the original sale was bona fide), and even that he is not even confident of the club being able to complete the season. |  |

Re the ST: I heard that there are at least 8000 rollovers from last season so might be a reason not to sell more at this stage? |  |

I think some of our fans have a strange fixation with Derby to be honest.
The bigger picture is that rogue owners are on the cusp of killing a historical football club and that's what we should be focusing on. |  | | |

Yeah. My wife and I got into a conversation with a family at an adjoining table in a pub in Norfolk whilst on holiday last week. The conversation got round to football. I asked them who they supported and they said Derby County. I spluttered in my ale. “What's wrong ?” the bloke said. “Went down the wrong way” I said.
Nice people. Don't get at the fans because of the crap owners I say. |  | | |

Selling the ground could be the final nail, should they manage to sell the club then surely the new owner will want to buy the stadium as well, if they pay less than £80 million for it then the EFL will know it was over valued in the first place. I can see them being the next Bolton. |  |

I am still wondering how Mr Potato Head is managing to be spun as the victim in his latest piece of poor decision making. Married with kids, but loves to regularly go to China White night club with his mates at weekends. OK. Just about stretching to give that concept some credibility. But then seemingly his party "invites" some ladies to enjoy their company in the VIP area, you can hear the stretching stopping. Then ends up in their hotel room for the evening, seemingly bladdered and passing out before getting a mate to collect him next morning supposedly hungover to bits.
Its great to see him role modelling for young pro's so well. I love that his management have been bouncing lots of different stories out this morning trying to see which one lands best to protect their client. It's in the hand of the police, except it hadnt been reported to them said the Police. Story changed a couple of times until contact was actually made seemingly with a suggestion of attempted black mail.
Suspect it is unlikely that there will be much evidence to support that suggestion, all will disappear given it looks as if potatohead seems have made a number of poor choices to put himself in the position that he did. |  |

Indeed. The question is whether Derby actually have a positive value or whether Mel Morris will have to pay someone to take them off his hands.
It will be an interesting season for a number of clubs in the Championship. Reading, Swansea, Derby and Forest to name but a few.
QPR and its owners got their house in order at a good time. | | | |

For a club that is such dire financial wowe, how on earth can they afford to put the whole team up in Pennyhill Park in Bagshot? That's a five star hotel that costs an absolute packet |  |

Personally I don't care if he was set up or not, if he is a serial adulterer or not, if he has a drink problem or not etc:
Those are issues for him and his family to deal with and more questions should be asked about the press for given such personal matters coverage when they clearly are not in the public interest.
Add Rooney to the list of weird fixations a section of our fanbase has too....hearing him booed at Loftus Road in 2020 was embarrassing. [Post edited 28 Jul 2021 8:17]

You're right, but it's hard to remember that bigger picture when a vocal element of their fanbase was giving it shamelessly large when they looked like they might get away with it. And by extension the silent majority are implicated for not saying more/anything at the time.
It's the same with Newcastle. I used to feel some sympathy for them, now I'd rather see them liquidated after how their loony conspiracy fringe has acted since the Saudi bid. |  | | |
