Another snow storm in Derby

Agreed but if contracts are terminated through the administrators, then those involved become free agents and can go anywhere.

Any there who could be useful to us?

 

It's a question of the administrators either cutting costs or generating cash to pay it's way forward. Terminating contractual payments to players usually comes with an upfront cost as a payoff. I doubt there's any available cash to do that. Selling on other hand means cash inwards - however little that might be, they'll take it.

 

BTW stuck in M&S food only carpark in Berkhampstead writing this. Hope they come back with something nice for dinner tonight.

 

Went fishing yesterday so trout for tea tonight.
Took half a dozen of our lambs to the slaughter house yesterday. Know what we're having sunday.

 

Stocks low in M&S. Now in Sainsbury's in Chesham and they've gone off again on a grub hunt. I can see it now - Tescos in Amersham next - this sat nav is great.........

 

Chill. Derby are getting relegated. The EFL will see to that.

 

Did they have any CO2?

No need for lambs, only poultry and pigs.

 

I'm sure they'll be pleased.

 

according to most Direby fans, the EFL have a vendetta against them and will stop at nothing to relegate them!! SO................ nothing to do with their owner cheating and lying his way to Championship survival for the past 3 years?? More deluded feckers than the JB's.

To be fair Sparkey, they're made for each other.

 

From past reports, I expect he thinks he'll sell a lot of skis in Derby......

 

Well, the snow queens have form.

Can you believe the brass neck on those lot?

Administrator is now appealing the points deduction for going into administration.

If the appeal gets rejected/thrown out they should have the deduction doubled for lodging a spurious appeal.....

 

Thing is, there's no compass for anything fair in professional football anymore. This is a pre-emptive strike by the administrators in order to keep potential buyers interested. They will know they have no chance of winning the appeal but no doubt it will prompt EFL not to add the extra 9 point deduction. My suspicion is that they already have some sort of "agreement" about the extra deduction otherwise the three interested parties may well have walked by now.
It's also fascinating that the administrators have had to borrow money to pay the players and manager. Players good enough that without the 12 point deduction would have Derby in upper mid table. Yet, players they clearly can't afford hence administration. A paradox a paradox a most peculiar paradox.
I feel for the fans but I also feel for Wycombe and other clubs that have suffered as a result of the Snow Queens "creativity" off the field.

 

To quote Nan (Catherine Tate), "they've got a f**kin' nerve."

 

If an appeal is allowed based upon the "Covid cost implications" and the 12 point deduction quashed, then that could open the floodgates to others in serious trouble who would follow suit.

It's the 12 points deduction penalty that's a major factor in preventing others pressing the button. I would suggest the jacks could well be heading the queue.

 

Dougie you think the Jacks are that skint then Sparky or are you just going on a little bit of history repeating???
