Sad for the Derby fans that it’s being dragged on for so long. Appreciate the fun in them suffering a bit and getting relegated but the whole situation by Mel Morris has been an utter farce.

It is horrible when something like this happens to a football club, at any level, rival or not. I can't believe they can't find a buyer who isn't bent, especially now that they are in League 1. The club has a large fan base and a storied history. You'd think some American billionaire would snap it up.

[Saxondale]

Rivals or not, I feel desperately sorry for the Derby fans. This is a real mess. That Mel Morris has utterly destroyed the club. 
 

To be clear, if this was Forest, I wouldn’t feel such compassion.

Got myself a member for Lincoln City this season. Will go to a lot of games this season when the world cup is on.

Derby are becoming like Leicester were in around 2007, in buying players who are over 30 years of age.

James Collins is a class signing for the level though. I've  said it before but I think they'll benefit from dropping and come straight back up.

Some Bristol Rovers fans might  be banned from the first 2 home games as they are potentially going to be forced to have a reduced capacity..

Guess they might ask if other teams will be punished for their pitch invasions?

Reading that article it looks like its more to do with stairway access and keeping them clear.  The FA haven't punished the club for the pitch invasions...yet.

£34 today at Hillsborough. Scandalous pricing

Still see themselves as a big club I think.

 

I recall Wednesday were always one of the higher prices for away tickets when we were in the Championship.

I think more likely just a crackpot skint owner and a fanbase dumb enough to still go and not fight against it.

Barrow 3-0 up at Stockport!

[RowlattsFox]

My first bet of the season included Stockport and Peterborough  

Some things never change.

Lee Tomlin there, deffo close to a heart attack and Donny had ran out of subs would be my guess  

 

*Edit was in the 6th minute of added time in the first half, poor **** was desperate to get into the dressing room for some oxygen!!

Michael Flynn is at his hometown club, Newport County, today against his Walsall side.

[Rain King]

Was driving long distance today and was flicking between talksport and 5 live during the matches.

 

Was surprised to hear Ian Stringer as the correspondent for the Derby v Barnsley match.

Love this from Darren Moore, well known as an absolute gent to be fair but nice to see him taking the time to pass on some advice.

Would love to see SW start to move up the leagues again!

That is brilliant, such a simple conversation and it will stay with the kid for years. Darren Moore comes across as a great bloke.
