I’ve no real opinion on Derby either way but have friends and some of the missus family are Derby fans so take a passing interest but not really in the know with what’s going on? Looks like they could be close to going to the wall if the bits you read on twitter are true

EFL blocking takeovers
Derby needing to settle with Middlesbrough and Wycombe by the end of the month
Middlesbrough really sticking the knife in demanding ridiculous amounts of money owed to the which the EFL are requesting to be paid before any takeover
All players up for sale
Blocked from signing anyone

Anyone know the ins and outs of what’s going on?

From the outside looking in looks like Rooney is doing a cracking job amidst all of this

Another point to consider is - I wouldn’t want us to be promoted this way but if they do go to the wall that would mean 3 up from the NL to make up the numbers potentially.

Not sure of any detail but I’m sure if Derby went out of business the EFL would only relegate one team rather than promote another team from the NL

A lot of the EFL decisions appear to be based on stuff from a panel led by someone from Middlesbrough which doesn’t seem right. Middlesbrough want compensation for missing out on the playoffs to derby who broke the FFP rules but failing to mention they lost 7 of their last 12 games that season. Wycombe want compensation for going down instead of derby one season after the EFL ruled on PPG that favoured them massively and led to promotion.

By all accounts the EFL have done a deal with the two clubs so they aren’t sued basically hanging derby out to dry as the fall guys despite the EFL failing massively to deal with things.

Guess they could start a phoenix club. We could offer a ground share if they wanted to pay us half the gate receipts. And pay for ground upkeep.

Steve Gibson is behaving in a pathetic manner. Presumably Derby themselves can sue Aston Villa and QPR who both beat them in play-off finals and were subsequently done for financial breaches those seasons.

And probably Bournemouth as well plus clubs who lost out to the Owls the year they made the playoff final before losing to hill.

Really. Don't think any true football supporter wants to see teams go under. Fall down the leagues yes, but not go under.

Wonder if it would impact our fan base much if the worst was to happen to them.

Not that I’m wanting it to.

There part of the football family, so wouldn't want to see them go to the wall, like I wouldn't any football club.

The ones that get penalised for mismanagement is always the fans, we know only too well!!!

I'm sorry, but I wouldn't lose any sleep if Brighton went to the wall. I have a long memory, never forgive and never forget.

We're not talking about Brighton though are we. Still wouldn't wish Brighton to go to the wall, Sunday league pub football yes but if they no longer existed it would be hard to give em the 5h1t they gave us.
Fact is you want Derby to go under for breaching the profitability and sustainability rules, erm think about it. If we're going to go up I'd rather be on our merits and not by default.
