Just another game out of 46 in a season Ron. If they want to look upon it as their Cup Final well who am I to argue.............
 
It is. I've been jealous of Wycombe Wanderers all my life.

1) No, I wouldn't. That's just your opinion. Can you prove otherwise?

2) Yes, I would. Do you speak for everybody that you don't know? Again, Can you prove what you're saying?

Yeah, totally agree. If my team are second best I'll call it for what it is.

I have never claimed to not be a little biased towards my team. Sorry, I'm not sure where you got that from?

You can't. No need for me to read the rest, mate <ok>

I'm not sure what game management has to do with this debate?

3) How can it be hypocrisy when nobody else has been in that position before? A bit silly using that word.

Is it sour grapes with you guys banging on about Derby?

Hmmmm

I'm sure there could well be a claim against you guys, then? You voted to finish the season early the year you were promoted because of 'concerns around Covid'. You were 8th and a team were kicked out of their play-off position for you. That's why you voted to finish the season.

Wycombe didn't then seem bothered by Covid anymore by playing in the play-off games.

There's nothing like wanting to have your cake and eat it. I would just keep my head down if I was you guys.

I thought I'd lump all of this in one place OK not in the correct order but it makes a great read
Please keep them coming Saff <laugh><laugh><laugh>
 
I see Derby are appealing against their 12 pts deduction saying it wasn't their fault it was Covids fault. I must have missed something have the other 91 clubs gone into administration because of Covid, what a load of b******s it's laughable<laugh><laugh><laugh>

Also if Derby get their points reinstated, then National League Dover will also want all their points reinstated and the fine that was paid reimbursed, all happened because of covid.
 
Wycombe Wanderers' owner Rob Couhig has confirmed their laywers have hit Derby County's administrators with a bill following their relegation from the Championship.

The League One side are claiming that Derby should have been relegated last season due to FFP breaches which, had a points penalty been imposed, would have seen them survive relegation at the expense of the Rams.

The Sun claims the bill is for the sum of around £6m which is the difference in TV money between the Championship and League One.
 
I really can’t see anything coming from this. However hats off to the Couhigs for publicly showing that Derby were wrong. Let’s stick up for the little man.
 
Just read an article in The Telegraph that says the Derby Administrators will accept a 21 point penalty with another 3 suspended,will Rooney walk away i wonder?
 
That will be the 9pts added to the 12pts already deducted
Yep and if the don't pay the next instalment of the transfer fee they owe Arsenal the suspended 3 points will be added as well so 24 points in total,serves them right as the owner knew full well he was breaking lots of rules. <whistle>

And he broke them to avoid relegation. All he has done is prolong the inevitable, unfortunately at our cost; Still it only cost us £15m-£20m. And I don't think that takes account of the fact that staying in the Championship for another season results in a larger umbrella payment............................ or does it?
 
Derby have today been hit with another 9 point deduction so minus 21 for the season as it takes effect from today,serves the cheating bastards right and i imagine Rooney will walk away.
 
The thing is about all this it didn't only affect us it has to be rembered that Rotherham only finished 2pts behind & Sheff Wed 3 pts behind who knows what would have happened

3 teams get relegated so it wouldn't have made any difference to the teams that finished bottom and bottom but 1
